El Nido and Puerto Princesa Trip

After visiting the Batak Tribe in Nanabu Roxas, we took the chance to explore El Nido and Puerto Princesa. Who wouldn't want to take that chance to see another masterpiece? 😍😍


tour about to start

Clear waters.

This is my favorite spot of the boat.💦



I always see to it that I swim, swim, swim. Don't leave Palawan without swimming and snorkeling but don't touch the fish, don't destroy their place. We're just visitors. 😍



Food. Seafood. Shrimp. I'm a shrimp-er so don't blame for eating a lot.🌊






Puerto Princesa in Three Hours

From El Nido, we arrived in Puerto after dark and has planned nothing the next day noting that our flight is at eight. So Ate Bing suggested that we do a city tour. Goodness gracious one of us was able to get the contact number of the tricycle driver we rode in that night. 😼

Yes. A tricycle is all you need. For P800.00 we were able to tour around the place roughly for about three hours. We went to Palawan Wildlife and Rescue Conservation Center, Butterfly Eco Garden and Tribal Village, Hacienda Mitra / Mitra's Ranch, and Baker's Hill. 🐾

BUTTERFLY ECO GARDEN AND TRIBAL VILLAGE


This kind of house is really relaxing to the eyes.

Amazed that they have their own language. 

Thank you for preserving the culture and tradition of these beautiful people with us.

HACIENDA MITRA

What a family! and what a mansion!

Imagine waking up in the morning and seeing this view. 

What a life the Mitras  have!

BAKER'S HILL

ako gihapon nag gunit sa selfie stick 😶

Love them ladies 💋

Lovelife, come fast! Me bored na! 😂😆

Then again, there are even more beautiful photos to show but I'll keep them to myself and to my friends. You need to go to the place to see more of it. You'll surely be left in awe. And I think we have differing opinions. But I must say, that the whole Palawan trip was splendid. Thank you Jesus.

Salamat Koyaaaa 💓

Filipino Stores and Restaurants in Tokyo

For somebody who craves for Filipino food and snacks from time to time, here are the stores I frequent to. I can only share a limited perspective but solely based on my experiences. Read on! Filipino Stores 1. Asia Yaosho (Kabukicho, Shinjuku)  While they mostly have Filipino products, they also sell Thai goods. I think their prices are a little lower than the other Filipino stores I've tried. However, they have limited stocks and they often run out of items that I usually need, like Bearbrand. 😁 Credits: This photo is from this website .  2.  Ameyoko Center Underground Marekt (Ueno)   This market is heaven for Southeast Asians. They have a lot of varieties, dry goods, frozen meat, and even fresh seafood. There are also two Filipino stores in the area. They sell more items than Asia Yaosho but they are a bit pricey.  Credits: Photo is from this website. The market is underground. The entrance is on the side of this building at the center of this photo.  3....

Summer: Warm Encounters

This year's summer break has been the best I've had in Japan or at least ever since I got to spend for my trips on my own. But while scanning through a thousand travel photos on my phone and camera, I realized that travel is made even more special with people you are with and those you encounter. Izumo, Shimane Other than its quiet and laidback atmosphere, the beauty of Izumo lies on its people. Our going there wasn't as carefully planned as it should have been. It's much farther from Tokyo and would honestly cost us more. But my oneechan convinced me that it will be worthwhile. I also happen to have a friend living in Izumo and I thought it will be a good opportunity for a catch up.  This Izumo friend drove us around and went out of her way for us to be able to spend a memorable day around the area. She as usual welcomed us with warmth and excitement sharing the history and stories of her hometown here and there. She is also naturally funny. Her quirks still make me gi...

Lessons in Spring

It's almost summer vacation and I have been planning on so many things to do for the long holiday but I have to sit down and write all the experiences worth remembering in spring.  HAKONE I stumbled upon this blog post that suggested a walk through the old Tokaido road would be fascinating. It would also be a less stressful trip to Hakone as it is an off the beaten path. So I forced myself to walk through the old road that actually leads you to lake Ashi. It  took about two hours of both feeling scared and excited. I was feeling nauseous in my stomach. The paved road uphill gave me an adrenaline rush. It was sunny and the air was cool. It was a good day to hike. There was a warning sign of bear sightings. I don't know why but that's the least of my concerns. In fact, what scared me more is the idea of bumping into a suspicious person along the way. Aren't humans scarier than animals? Life lesson: Travel alone. A lot .
