Today I Am Thankful, Week 4

Monday, July 28th, 2008

A day late but with good reason. How can I possibly let this week pass without a post on the things that I’m thankful for? Esp since this past week, I was reminded of the dreams I had listed down eight (8) years ago. Yes, I have a journal to prove it. LOL.
We all have [...]

The Beach Monger: Sunset Cove, Subic

Tuesday, April 15th, 2008

Early Saturday morning, I hopped into Rico’s car for a roadtrip to Subic and an overnight stay at Sunset Cove, courtesy of USAP (who happens to be looking for bloggers btw, just contact Rico for more information) and Alvin, whose family owns this gorgeous piece of land fronting the sea. Anyway, I was Rico’s plus [...]

Bohol, Philippines
We took the Manila-Cebu plane then boarded the SuperCat from the Cebu Port to the Port of Tagbilaran in Bohol. Then we head towards the town known for its beaches, Panglao. It’s where Bohol Beach Club and Dimaluan Beach are located.
I was fortunate enough to have had the opportunity to experience what Bohol has [...]

The Beach Monger: Peninsula de Punta Fuego

Peninsula de Punta Fuego

Though the place isn’t really your typical commercial beach resort since it is more of a residential estate than anything else. It just so happens that the developers optimised their coastal lines and made sure the place would offer fantastic beaches. Now, it’s one of the premier destinations for a good beach [...]

Mindoro Slings, Blogging Chismis, Bikini Photoshoots and a Drunken Podcast

Wednesday, March 7th, 2007

The last time I went to Galera, it was back in 2005. I took Makati-Batangas Pier in 1 1/2 hours in 8am traffic. I wasn’t armed with a camera and I lacked sleep since I worked the night shift for a call center back then, so, the trip wasn’t properly documented as it was last [...]

The Beach Monger: Boracay

Wednesday, May 31st, 2006

Boracay, Philippines
Boracay is considered the most popular beach in the Philippines. It got featured in Discovery Channel’s Lonely Planet. So, seeing a lot of tourists there wasn’t a big surprise. It’s not just the media that brings people there. It’s the reputation that the place has established for itself — the ultimate beach party place. [...]

The Beach Monger: Port Noarlunga

Port Noarlunga, South Australia, Australia
One of the most beautiful beaches I’ve seen is this one in Port Noarlunga. On my first visit to Australia, I only got to see this place once but this year, I got to see it twice. It was only that last time did I get to have my photo [...]

The Beach Monger: Palawan

Thursday, April 13th, 2006

Beaches are my haven.
I can say that it’s a source of relaxation for me. I didn’t use to love the beach because it would mean my skin’s going to grow darker but when I reached my late teens, I found myself falling and falling and falling… Ack. This is becoming too tacky for my taste. [...]
