I have stopped doing online shopping for a while not because of bad experiences with sellers, but because I like to be able to actually see, hold, smell or taste the thing I'm going to buy. The multi-sensory engagement with a retail or bookstore is what makes shopping a fun thing, isn't it? I mean, who among you here doesn't enjoy stopping by a Jo Malone or Body Shop store ... READ MORE
UK Adventure Days 7 to 9: Back in London
Hello all! I hope everyone's safe and well in this pandemic time. I finally found the time and motivation to finish my UK travel diary. How time flies so quickly! Just last year we were busy touring London and Scotland, and then 9 months later this beautiful country, along with all others, closed their borders and put all stops at tourism - for people to just stay home ...

Daddy’s Last Act of Love
It has been exactly a week since we lost Daddy. I still could not believe that he is gone. My memories of his last 21 days are still so vivid and fresh, that I still wake up confused sometimes because I knew I was with him at the hospital. For 17 days, Daddy and I stayed at the hospital as his calcium serum was found to be abnormally high. Prior to his confinement, ... READ MORE
My Birthday Week in Japan
I'm back, people! Please allow me to do a little detour from my UK travel diary (haven't started with Day 7 yet, but don't worry, matatapos na ang kwento ko dun hehe!) and write about our very recent trip to Japan - where I celebrated my 4_th birthday! That's right. I decided to celebrate my birthday abroad for a change. The idea came about after reading countless ... READ MORE

UK Adventure Day 5: Exploring the Magical Edinburgh
We only had 2 days to explore Scotland, the northern part of UK, but it was enough to see the best of Edinburgh and part of the Highlands. Edinburgh is the capital of Scotland, with lots of old towns and villages that retained much of their original character as settlements. It's not hard to fall in love with Edinburgh, and now I understand why some of the travelers I know ... READ MORE
UK Adventure Day 4: Covent Garden + Trip to Edinburgh
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 ...
