5 F's Trip

-
My Quezon trip with my YFC friends is my first travel for this year. It is my second time to go to Quezon, my first was last October 2011, nonetheless I enjoyed every minute of it.

We arrived at Leo's birthday celebration at around 8pm. We don't know that it would be a semi-formal event and my outfit is not appropriate for the occasion. Hihi.

The food is oh-so-luscious, I love the buko pandan most. We danced and partied that night, then the boys and I had a glass of beer (forever one of the boys). At around 1 am , we went home and rest.

We woke up late hihi indeed we all had a wonderful and relaxing sleep. Our buffet-type-morning-meal surprised us this morning. My gally, there is food everywhere and everything tastes amazing. After our breakfast, we jump to the car and vamoose we go. 

We first went to buy pasalubongs. We bought 17 boxes of Quezon's famous Yema Cake at Rodilla's Eatery. Gally, every bite of  this cake is heavenly. I ate three slices hihi yumyum. No diet for this day.

Just across Rodilla's Bakeshop, I bought Longganisang Lucban for my boyfriend. He requested this as my pasalubong. He's not fond of sweets, yey, more yema cake for me. I miss my Taty--->segway

After-which ,we drove straight to Graceland: Estates and Country Club.

After our pictorial wanderlust, we got hungry and headed to Kamayan sa Palaisdaan. I just had one of the most sobrang-busog-ayoko-na-kumain-for-a-week moment. The Sinugno (Ginataang Tilapia) and Sizzling Pusit are the best-est (if there's such a term :P) seafood dish in the town yow!

Feels like Autumn 

After our uber-delightful feast, we went off to Kamay ni Hesus. There is a myth that when visitors would hike at KNH the rain would fall. It is just a myth, but every  time I am at the top of the shrine there will have sudden raindrops. Amazing!

Our last stop and can-not-not-experience is to eat Quezon's Pride, Pancit Habhab/Pancit Lucban. Even though we all are huhu-sobrang-busog-parin-ako , we all feel kailangan-ko-tong-matikman-parin. What's enticing in this delicacy is the way you would eat it. You are only given a banana leaf with pancit on it, yep, no fork. And of course don't forget to put sweet vinegar, nomnom.

By 7 pm we were off to Manila. Our 24-hour Quezon Trip is indeed full of fun, friendship, freedom, faith ,and food. Praise God for this superb experience!

Bantayan × Kalanggaman

I've been to beaches of Boracay, Palawan, Camiguin, Panglao, Samal, Pagudpud ,and these were tagged to be our country's finest, but wait till you see Bantayan of Cebu and Kalanggaman of Leyte. You'll surely save a place for them on the top list. We actually stayed in Cebu for 3 days, but I opt to blog about our Bantayan-Kalanggaman trip alone. We spent our last day at the South, in Kawasan falls. Ours was very tiring, so I won't suggest that you do that. You should spend at least two days in Bantayan and/or spend a night camping at Kalanggaman. Here's our jampacked itinerary for our Bantayan x Kalanggaman two-day trip for only 3,000 php ( for a group of 5, airfare excluded). Day 1 5:45 am - ETA from MNL 6:00-6:20- Taxi from airport to North Terminal Bus (P60) 7:00-10:00 Bus to Hagnaya Port (P160) 10:30- 11:30 Ferry to Hagnaya to Sta. Fe Bantayan Island (P170) Terminal fee (P10) Mode of transportation in Bantayan are tricycles (P20), bicy

KL-Melaka-SG, Bali, Brunei-KK: A Crazy Backpacking Trip

Three backpackers , with only 30,000 Php (600 USD)  each in their pockets, traveled for three weeks to six cities/destinations (Kuala Lumpur, Melaka, Singapore, Bali, Bandar Seri Begawan, Kota Kinabalu) in four countries (Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesia, Brunei, ) . *Airfare excluded (PHP 11,442- for all our 4 flights) How foolish was that? Oh yes, we were that crazy! My friends and I were too busy prior this trip. So none of us made a planned itinerary nor have read nor researched about where we're going. We also weren't able to change our PHP to USD (ganoon kami ka-busy that time, talo tuloy kami sa palitan, sobrang baba ng Peso huhu) . Our mantra- be spontaneous, explore, and be surprised by what these places offer . As backpackers would say , travel with les s plans  and more freedom. Wala na ngang plano, wala pang pera haha and that made our trip even crazier. But we definitely had fun, getting lost, and eventually being found (bakit may hugot ka besh?). W

Vietnam - Cambodia - Thailand - Laos -A Travel Kwento

Indochina or mainland South East Asia is a popular travel destination among backpackers worldwide. Firstly because traveling here is way cheaper than other countries. And mainly because Indochina has a lot to offer. It has diverse culture and religion, rich history,  warm people, mouthwatering foods,  pristine beaches and majestic mountains, frisky nightlife and serene countryside living. It basically offers a bit of everything. And Indochina as my first travel destination abroad is a perfect choice. I promised myself that  I'd only travel outside the country, if and only if , I have explored my beloved Philippines.  And since I have traveled half of Ph, this year I would start to get to know my dear Asia, yay! *So hanggang dito prinopromote ko pa din ang Pinas hihi.
