    Is it time to staycation?

    I have been stuck in Manila since the whole country has been put under community quarantine in March 2020. Several variations of the quarantine have come and gone and I’m still here. Though I have already resigned myself that long-distance travel is not in my near future, getting my first dose of the vaccine has…

    15 years and still wandering

    It’s been more than a year since this pandemic started. I can’t say it’s been more than a year since I last traveled, but it’s been a while. Back in February when the new cases seemed to be tapering off and active cases were low for a densely populated metropolitan, I was able to take…

    Get inspired to travel with Pinterest

    I’m one of those millenials, the ones who grew up on the Internet. I practically live online — my work is based online, most of my friends now, are those that I met online, and I keep in touch with them and my family online. My hobbies for the past 20 years have been influenced…

  • Of pearls and vendors

    How do you deal with touts when you travel? In my years of travel, I’ve learned to ignore them, as engaging them (or in some extreme cases, just having a brief eye contact) leads to non-stop badgering to buy or contract their services. Unfortunately, I wasn’t share this advice to my cousin, so she got…

  • Traveling with Cla, Khursten, and Muji

    This is an advertorial When I made up my mind to start traveling in 2006, I knew I’d be going solo. As much as I would have loved to travel with my friends, I knew that it would not be possible: they have different priorities, and their money will definitely not be going to a…
