We were back at exploring London on our 4th day, and we have the whole morning until mid-afternoon for sightseeing before we depart for Edinburgh (pronounced “Edin-brah”) in Scotland - by high speed train. Since the St. George Wharf Pier was just a walking distance from Travelodge Hotel in Vauxhall (our home in the last 4 days), our group took ... READ MORE
UK Adventure Day 3: Exploring the Traditional Cotswolds Villages and Oxford
I have always wanted to explore the English countryside, so when I found this small group tour of Traditional Cotswolds Villages and Oxford from Klook, I immediately booked it. To my surprise, it was the Rabbie's Cotwolds tour that I've been eyeing when we were planning our UK trip. So I was really happy that we will get to experience Rabbie's brand of service. Our ...

UK Adventure Day 2: Exploring Windsor, Bath and Stonehenge + More of London at Night
We booked Evan Evan Tours via Klook for our Windsor, Bath and Stonehenge Day Tour. If there's one thing I love about planning for our UK trip, it was the myriad of day tours available from London and at budget-friendly prices. For this tour, we have to be at the meet-up point (Victoria Station) by 7:30 a.m. since the bus leaves at exactly 8:00 a.m. First stop was ... READ MORE
UK Adventure Day 1: Exploring London via River Thames + Walking Tour of Buckingham Palace

The Bright Spot’s UK Adventure
It has always been a dream of mine to visit England someday, since I seem to love almost everything about the country: the Beatles and the Royal Family, football, tea cups, Brit Pop, Harry Potter and Cath Kidston, and the English countryside. So when my college buddies Denise and her husband Roy invited us to join them in their England and Scotland trip ... READ MORE
8 Things to Know About Liam
My favourite nephew turned 8 years old last October 18, and I took some days off from work to fly to Cebu for his birthday weekend. The weekend celebration happened at Jpark Island Resort & Waterpark - a 5-star family destination with sprawling water complex - doing the thing that Liam loves most: swimming! The last time we had this kind of getaway was in 2014 when we ... READ MORE
Food Trip Container Yard in Gensan
I was in General Santos City (or simply "Gensan") last week for work, and it's also my first time to be in this city known for being the "Tuna Capital of the Philippines", and for giving us Manny Pacquiao. Unfortunately, our schedule was packed and we have no time to tour much of the city. But I was surprised and happy to find Gensan so urbanized, which means that the city ... READ MORE
Exploring Kyoto + Osaka, the DIY Way (Day 5)
We spent our last day in Osaka at Universal Studios Japan (USJ). Despite having explored already some parts of USJ the previous day (see related post here), AJ and I still went there early. We had a quick breakfast at a McDonald's restaurant we found just outside USJ, before starting our day there. The early morning crowd was kinda thick already - even at 9:00 a.m. I am ... READ MORE
