05.28.2014 by Leah // 2 Comments

The bid/auction is finally ON for this gorgeous Palawan Pearl Necklace that I mentioned in my earlier post.  You can place your bids at my eBay.ph account.  For the sake of transparency, I will not accept bids outside eBay. Here's a screenshot of the eBay listing I made: A picture of me 'modeling' the pearl necklace.  I was able to capture the pearls' colors perfectly ... READ MORE

Bid for this: Pearl Necklace from Palawan

05.25.2014 by Leah // 7 Comments

I got inspirational boost from the messages and comments you left when I mentioned about the jewelry business I was invited to join.  Just to update you, I've already sent message to my interested partner that I will not be able to do it.  I was really sad to let it go, but then again, another opportunity knocked during my trip at Palawan the other day. It all started with ... READ MORE

A Bespoke South Sea Pearl Ring

Remember this loose golden south sea pearl I bought in Palawan last May? (shown below with my pair of golden south sea pearl earrings) I finally had it designed into a ring!

The Art Nook at Ka Lui

11.08.2013 by Leah // 1 Comment

How's everyone today?  I hope you are all safe and nicely tucked at home.   Our office decided to suspend work after lunch, to allow everyone not just to get to their homes safely, but for them to be able to monitor the status of their families and relatives living in the provinces hit by island-hopping super typhoon Yolanda. And because all I've been seeing outside is a ... READ MORE

Honda Bay Tour (Take 2!)

10.21.2013 by Leah // 2 Comments

In a recent trip to Puerto Princesa, Palawan (for work), me and my office colleagues were able to squeeze in time for a Honda Bay Tour.  Since our flight back to Manila was on a Saturday evening, we decided to make use of the available time in the morning by taking this island-hopping trip at Honda Bay (i.e., Honda Bay Tour). It wasn't too long ago when I had a Honda Bay ... READ MORE

Palawan Freshwater Pearls

10.14.2013 by Leah // 7 Comments

Sorry for the lack of posts, I was on travel last Friday for work and as luck would have it, my destination was Puerto Princesa in Palawan and our work was scheduled on a Friday!  We were able to squeeze in an island-hopping activity the following day (a Saturday) before flying back to Manila in the evening of the same day. You must remember that some months ago, I shared ... READ MORE

Food Tripping at Puerto Princesa

07.14.2013 by Leah // 1 Comment

I have written much about our trip in Puerto Princesa, Palawan last May, but have not said much about the food there.   Why is that?  Because I've been saving it for last   =) Since all breakfasts and lunches during our 4-day trip are already paid for (as part of the tour and accommodation packages that we availed of),  it was only our dinners that we have to plan and pay ...
