I just finished watching a documentary on Tubbataha Reefs, one of the Philippines’ nominees for the New 7 Wonders of Nature, currently ranking as the 7th.
What and where is Tubbataha, and why does it deserve a vote?
Tubbataha Reef is an atoll coral reef in the Sulu Sea that belongs to the Philippines. It is a […]
I was going through the photos we took on our last trip to the Philippines and came across this photo of an uninhabited island between Panglao and Balicasag islands in Bohol. That’s me on the photo, marveling at the spectacular wonder of nature spread out before me.
The island itself is tiny, probably not more […]
It’s the Holy Week and depending where you are here in Asia, it could be the best or worst time to get around.
In the Philippines, the country takes a pause for a few days.
The main roads leading out of Manila would be clogged, with many locals heading to the provinces and beach destinations. Baguio will […]
While searching for more photos of Ilocos Norte, I stumbled upon another travelogue, complete with beautiful photos of the area, from the perspective of an escort/driver of sorts. The trip covered more than just the Ilocos region, and the essay is remarkably detailed, I’m sure it will be useful for some of you who may […]

Just a shout out to let you all know I’m back from a wonderful 2 weeks in the Philippines. I haven’t had much time to write about our holiday while I was on the road– it proved to be too hard to resist the pull of the sun, sand, and glorious white beach — but […]

A trip to Palawan is not complete without a visit to El Nido.
A trip to El nido, on the other hand, is made complete by the offerings of El Nido Boutique and Art Cafe . It’s a one-stop shop really for everything […]
