On our first day (Dakak tour), we asked a crew what else can be seen there. He told us that the view overlooking Dakak was great, but we need to climb 300 steps up until we get to the Globe cell site tower. That was in the afternoon, and night would befall soon, so we opted to go to that cell site early next morning. one side. On the other side, there’s Dakak, and “another resort”. We never find out if what we saw was really a resort. But it was beautiful just the same. At that point, w

On our MNL-DPL leg, our flight was delayed. Instead of leaving at 1045am, we managed to flew at around 1pm. Our original plan of eating at Dakak was spoiled. Instead, we eat at one of the food bars at NAIA terminal 3. There’s not much to do here so we just window-shop and fool around to kill those down time. It’s good that we planned touring Dakak on or first day, so we have plenty of spare time for mishaps like this. There were a lot of people complaining at the Cebpac crews... but hey,

“Tinago” in Filipino literally means hidden. As the name implies, Tinago falls is concealed. Though standing at 240 ft, one cannot simply just look above the skies to perceive it. Instead, he needs to look down and descend at least 300 steps. So far in my Philippine travels, I found the Tinago falls the most serene and beautiful of all the waterfalls I’ve seen. I’ve been to Iligan’s Maria Cristina falls, Pagudpud’s Kabigan falls, Samal’s multi-tiered Hagimit falls, Camiguin

While preparing for our trip in Davao. Catnap and I saw a frisbee while looking for goggles I think. We thought of buying one, to add to our to-do lists in Davao, or whenever we would have down time during our vacation. This was our first real frisbee game, and it was super fun.  As part of an itinerary, we recommend you bring along a frisbee to fill up those down time during your trip. :) On this video is Paradise Resort in Samal Island, Davao, Philippines.

Once upon a time, somebody suggested visiting Pagsanjan falls. But going there was a bit tricky. So this someone suggested visiting the infamous Maria Cristina falls instead. During that time, I was not aware where it was located. And since I learned about it in some classroom lessons during elementary, it strikes me and I ended up researching about this waterfall. I learned that it is located in Iligan City, so going there would be harder than going to Pagsanjan which is just in Laguna. Jus

Before our very much awaited Davao tour (where our every-other-month tour started). We all have bought new sandals. We were planning to go wild water rafting and strappy sandals were the ideal foot wear for the activity. I have searched highs and lows for the perfect foot wear that I could use for hiking, rafting, and at the same time use it on a regular basis. Then I came accross, this brown beautiful strappy thing. I was introduced to Giselle Bundchen...'s Ipanema. haha. It cost me 1800
