A Day In My Life: I went to Cebu for a day just to go food tripping
Okay, I went there to conduct a training for our field associates as part of my corporate job based in Makati. It was a full day training, however, my part ran for just two to three hours. Trainings for the rest of the day was all operational that I was not involved in anymore. I stayed there, listening and observing, for a couple more hours then I finally got bored and excused myself. I know they didn’t want a Compliance person there anyway. Charot. I’ve been doing the same job for six years already (as of writing) in different industries, so I am used to short travels and quick stays (or…

Where to go next summer? Here are 12 island gems in Caramoan for your next island hopping!
I’ve been to Caramoan many times already (mainly because I’m from Bicol and one of my uncles live there) and I’ve witnessed the beauty of the islands there more than once and I know I’d love to visit them again and again. What makes Caramoan one of my best-loved Philippine provinces is that it never ceases to amaze me. The rare find of super virgin islands is what makes me fall even more in love with nature, and I’m sure you will, too. New here? Read this! Hey there! My name’s May and you can view more about me here. I travel a lot for both work and leisure. Thanks to…

#ProjectTutongSaRomblon: fun and awareness at Looc Fish Sanctuary, Tablas (Day 3 of 3)
Marine sanctuaries are indeed interesting. As I started to become an “island girl” (oh, missing the mountains already! Praying to gain back my strength, stamina, courage and whatever I need to go back hiking!), I learned (and learning) a lot about marine life. One favorite are coral reefs. I understand how hard it is to maintain these kinds of rehabs and sanctuaries, but I guess the government or private owners should stop their operations first if they see challenges in their facilities already. I mean, what is a million profits if that can provide only a couple of years of food for the family because the marine life you were…

#ProjectTutongSaRomblon: Sibuyan Island experience and travel guide (Day 2 of 3)
Here’s one of my favorite parts of our Romblon trip! Not only because it’s beautiful, Sibuyan Island is incredibly unique and remote that your vacay won’t be ruined because of overcrowded places. In fact, it was hailed as Galapagos of Asia as it is also home to a rich biodiversity and endemic flora and fauna. Before summer ended, I and my gorgeous friends had a quick 3-day trip, which took us months to plan. Basically because we needed to meet up and finalize the itinerary face-to-face, else we knew it’d be one of our beautiful “drawing” we’re keeping in frames. “Quick” because we tried hopping among the three main islands…

Home away from home: The Boathouse in Sibuyan, Romblon
One of our most-loved stay during our trip to Romblon was in The Boathouse in Sibuyan Island. Not only because their theme was fun and unique, the place was also comfy like we didn’t leave home. When we hear or see the word “ROMBLON”, the first thing that comes to mind is “MARBLE” (or marmol, in Tagalog). But really, Romblon is more than just the “Marble Capital of the Philippines”. It’s also home to crystal clear beaches, healthy and rich marine life, very gentle and friendly people, and greeaaaat food. Romblon is one of the provinces of the Philippines with most kept beauty. This gem, are not always on the…
