The Hidden Jewel of the North: what to love about Boinao, Pangasinan
Whenever I hear “Pangasinan” or any province somewhere North, I get super excited about the food. They just have this special skill in cooking that, in my personal opinion, really stands out.

Quick La Union Getaway (with itinerary and expenses)
Note: This is an article originally posted on my previous blog, Miss Understood on Tumblr. YES! Finally had a quick vacay after the longest time of work… and being bored at home!
