The Cats I Met While In SG-MLY-THAI
Of course, this travel of mine will not be complete without having a photo shoot with a cat-I-met-while-on-the road. 🙂 Singapore I did not have that lucky chance to interact with a live cat here. But I was blessed by the heavens when I met […]
Going Home
The morning of our tenth day was spent on a short walk along Khao San Road. We were to go home later that afternoon back to the Philippines and we really could not believe the trip was actually coming to an end. It was surreal and […]
Ayutthaya
Ayutthaya, a province about an hour north of Bangkok in Thailand deserves a whole day if not several days to explore. Below are some of the temples we visited. Wat Maha That Thanon Si Sanphet How we got here and some tips I’d […]

Gardens By The Bay, Little India, Chinatown and Cross-border Trip to Malaysia
We wanted to visit Gardens by the Bay at night specially on the night of our second day. However, we were pretty tired and decided to drop by here first thing in the morning. Chie and I agreed that we will strictly follow our schedule […]
Meeting Mt. Pinatubo
Seeing the magnificent crater lake which was born from a catastrophic event was just beyond awesome. The 1 hour 4 x 4 ride and 2-hour trek was worth it upon seeing the breath-taking view of Mt. Pinatubo. For those too young to remember, Mt. Pinatubo erupted in […]
