  • Site updates

    Hola! Just a quick note to tell you a couple of updates I made for JustWandering.org: Resized the Dash Media badge. It’s making my site load oddly in Internet Explorer. Since it really is in bad form to tell my viewers to use Firefox when viewing my site, I’d have to make adjustments so nobody…

  • Travel tunes

    Something came in the mail for me yesterday. No, it’s not another doll or free plane tickets — my mix CD from the BootsnAll Secret Santa Mix Tape exchange. Or in this case, CD. My secret santa has sent me the most awesome mix: Food songs. I’m not kidding. All twenty-one songs in this mix…

  • Apologies

    I’ve just upgraded my blog to the most current WordPress version, 2.2 Getz. Due to the popularity of the Sidebar Widgets plugin, they decided to incorporate it with the basic installation. Unfortunately, since my blog’s theme is terribly Widget-dependent, it went crazy. Well, not totally, but I’m still trying to figure out how to make…

  • Bill Bryson’s Down Under

    I can be quite a cheapskate when it comes to buying books. Though I may spend a lot on comics, I have reservations about shelling money on books. Looking at the way I take care of my books, it seems fitting that I buy second hand book instead of brand new ones. It was just…

  • How do I love thee?

    I’ve always loved the library. Since I’ve graduated, I haven’t been inside one until this year, when my sister dropped me off at the nearby library. It was love at first sight: high ceiling with lots of natural light, a courtyard where you can have a snack while reading, Pilot Guide and Lonely Planet DVDs,…

  • Something to tide you over

    I’ll be away again for a 3-day “trip,” after which I hope to go home alive *drama* Here’s two of my favorite travel blogs to entertain you during my weekend off.

  • Metroblogging Manila

    You may be wondering why I don’t post much about Manila, my grimy, dirty, lovable city. That’s because I write about my city over at the Manila Metroblog. Metroblogging is “the largest and fastest growing network of city-specific blogs on the Web.” There are currently around 50 cities in the Metroblog network, among them Bangkok,…

  • Best content online

    I started this blog with the intent to write about my travels and share whatever travel article I come across in the web. It’s mostly for personal reference, sort of like an online library for me, in case I would need the information later on. It’s also a place to catalog my experiences. Since I…
