• Kaamulan Festival 2009

    We’re currently here in our hotel room in Cagayan de Oro, but earlier today, we spent the day in Malaybalay, Bukidnon for the Kaamulan Festival. Taken with my Sony Ericsson W760, uploaded directly to Flickr without editing.

  • Philippine Airline Recaro seats and AVOD

    I’ve only read about this, but I never thought that I would actually try them out myself. When I got inside the waiting lounge at the Centennial airport, I saw this Boeing 747 docked in one of the bays. I’m always drawn to airplanes, and I would almost always whip out my camera and take…

  • Travel Expenses: Hong Kong

    I’m back from my trip to Hong Kong over the weekend. Since I always keep track of my expenses for every trip, the budget is always the first entry to be finished. This Hong Kong trip was certainly one of the cheapest trip I’ve had lately, specially since it was an international trip (coming close…

  • Playing the waiting game at the Centennial airport

    I’m here at the Centennial terminal of the Ninoy Aquino International Airport, waiting for my flight to be called. It’s been a while since I’ve been at Terminal 2. It’s actually quite nice here during daytime; not as gloomy as it is during the night. The airport isn’t crowded today, and there are plenty of…

  • Experience the world at Bellagio Square

    In the most unassuming of places stand Bellagio Square, a dining and entertainment center in Malate, Manila, with facilities for dining, health, beauty and wellness.

  • Ever wondered how airline food is prepared?

    I never imagined how meticulous and strict airline food is prepared. As passengers, we often complain about the food, not knowing how much preparation and care was put on each tray. After the Etihad launching, we were treated to a tour of the Miascor facility, Gate Gourmet’s Manila unit. The company handles the on board…

  • Onboard dining has never been this good

    Etihad Airways, the national carrier of the United Arab Emirates, has recently launched their “Inspired Service,” a personalized flying experience in their First and Business class. With this new service, passengers can specify when they want to eat and what they want to eat based on the airline’s ala carte menu. Etihad will have chefs…

  • Enchanted Kingdom still enchants me

    Enchanted Kingdom has been a mainstay in family outings, school field trips and barkada road trips. Since the park opened in 1994, I’ve been to the park twice with family, once on a field trip and thrice with my barkada. Though we don’t get to go to the theme park every year, each visit is…

  • Eating out and eating well in Boracay

    Boracay has changed a lot through the years. Construction of new buildings never seem to stop, be it in the beach front or in other beaches and coves in the island. One of the positive things about this development boom, I guess, is the food. There are now more restaurants in Boracay than ever. From…
