Lonely Planet Travel Journal Winner!

We were so busy yesterday that I totally forgot to post about the Lonely Planet travel journal winner. pp_eek

Congratulations Estan! Breaking that sacred ritual made you a winner. As the judges and I agree, it’s not a travel story unless you commit a cultural faux pax pp_largegrin

A big thanks to Shubert, Karla and Dyanie for sharing their stories. And for those of you who just watched the deadline go by… maybe next time? pp_wink

Oh by the way, Merry Christmas!

Congratulations, estan, for turning a “cultural faux pas” into a prize-winning anecdote. And thanx for sharing: now maybe I won’t feel like I’m the only socially inept, culturally insensitive buffoon when I travel.

(I’ll still feel like a buffoon, because I am… but at least maybe I won’t feel so alone!)

Nina, going through quarterlife crisis, decided to stop talking about traveling and actually start traveling. Starting with a solo weekend trip to Cebu to a backpacking trip in Thailand and Singapore, she finally made it out of Asia and into Australia. After spending close to six months down under, she's happily settled in Manila (for now), intent to explore the best things the Philippines has to offer.
