  • Ponce Suites: Kublai’s Masterpiece

    August has been such a hectic month, that completely left the planning for the Davao trip to my very favorite travel buddies. Since I know Melo’s traveling with us, I know we’d be in good hands — Melo has been everywhere, thanks to his close affiliation with the Department of Tourism in his past life.…

  • Thoughts on Wordcamp Philippines 2008

    While preparing to go to bed after a long day, I just realized that I’ve attended two Wordcamp firsts: the first Wordcamp in Australia (Wordcamp Melbourne 2007), and the first Wordcamp in Southeast Asia (Wordcamp Philippines 2008. Darn you Beijing for holding one last year; it would’ve been first in Asia!) Smug declarations aside, I’m…

  • Live Blogging from Wordcamp Philippines!

    4:46 pm Matt is winding down the session with the Q&A session. Battery’s running out so this is probably my last update (and I’m getting lazy). Watch out for the proper WordCamp post later! 2:57 pm It’s Ms. Google Earth Philippines, Aileen Apolo! She’s going to talk about Google Analytics. Woohoo! The crowd got really…

  • Shooting underwater with Dicapac

    I’m taking a break from finishing the last installment of my Coron travelogue to show off my awesome underwater photos. Actually, I ran smack into a huge wall of writer’s blogger’s block. Plus, after weeks of not getting any event invites, it started coming in all at once, so I’m left with hardly any time…

  • Island Hopping in Coron

    We woke up early, though not without hitting the snooze button several times. After our morning ablutions, we walked to the carinderia (small eatery) where we had lunch the previous day for breakfast. Seems like tapsilog (tapa or cured beef, singangag (fried rice) and itlog (sunny side up eggs) was the group’s favorite, save for…

  • Coron – First impressions

    The thing about having other people plan for trips is that I end up not researching about the place. Sure, I’ve read about Coron in my Lonely Planet book, as well as Dive Guide in the Philippines, but other than that, I didn’t really do as much research as I did for my earlier trips.…

  • The greatest show on earth was cancelled

    There has been so much hoopla over the World Pyrolympics since it first started in December 2005. I never really had any interest to watch because 1) there is sure to be LOTS of people watching, and 2) it’s held in the Mall of Asia. I’ve nothing against Henry Sy’s ginormous mall, but it’s just…

  • World’s Worst Taxi Rides
