Bodhi Library and Cafe in La Bella, Tagaytay
I saved a lot this ECQ as travel was banned for months. Okay, not a LOT lot, but enough to finally get to start paying for our new fam home. I was thinking of naming it, tbh. But maybe when it’s already ready for turn-over. For now, thanks that we finally have somewhere else to go to while in GCQ. And fortunately, one of those places that have opened to the public again was Tagaytay. And yes, I went there and finally visited the Bodhi Libray and Cafe. This is not really a “hidden” gem anymore as it’s already taken a slot in the trendiest cafes near Manila in almost…

I like working off-site whenever my office schedule is not so tight. And every time I need to focus on my tasks and I need to avoid unnecessary talks, I go to the nearest cafe and work there with my headphones and music on. And when it comes to choosing a place, I usually consider four most important work things: Wi-FI connection, electric sockets, great coffee, and yummy pastries and/or…

My newest fave: Cafe Janealo in Intramuros
Intramuros is one of my favorite places in Manila because of it’s vintagey look, as if I never get tired of walking and taking pictures around it. My problem was, though there are numbers of restaurants inside Intra, and most of them are quite expensive. Though I am a foodie, I don’t commit myself to spending too much just for the sake of reviewing them especially I don’t get anything from blogging yet. Walang balik, kumbaga. So you know my reviews are purely based from honesty and not just because I am paid. (Don’t worry guys, if they pay me I’ll still be honest lol.) The last time I visited…
