You know what they say (at least in the Philippines), let destiny (a.k.a. Cebu Pacific’s seat sale) take you there! And so, here we decided to go, despite being constantly told that there’s nothing much to do in this part of the country. But oh, come on! The enjoyment of a trip has nothing to do with the destination–one’s experience of a place is always … Continue reading Fukuoka, Hiroshima, Miyajima & Beppu (October 2018)
Part 3 out of 6. Read about the rest of my Canada trip HERE. DAY 1 TAKKAKAW FALLS At 302 meters from the base, this figure of beauty is one of the tallest waterfalls in Canada.

As I jumped down the bus, I immediately awed over the chunks of white on the … Continue reading Western Canada Pt. 3: Banff (September 2017)

Mostly because I didn’t have a digital camera with me, and perhaps I was too careful to even bring out my camera (the weather wasn’t very helpful, either). Nevertheless, I’d like to share with you some photographs of the first mountain I conquered (for my keepsakes, too), as my application to be a Loyola … Continue reading Mt. Daguldol (2014)
Admire the sights of this interesting trail along with me. Continue reading Mt. Batulao (2015)
