I Want More

Travelling!

If you've read my previous posts, most of my write ups are about our travels. Yes, I am hooked and I can't get enough. Early this year, we've been to Baguio (Jan), Davao (Feb), Bataan & Subic (March), and Cebu (June).. Now that we have received our passports (got it renewed), I am planning for another trip. Hopefully, we can travel before the year ends or by early next year.. Still hoping.

But as of todate, I can say that we already have tentative plans, yes and wishing that this will be pushed through the soonest possible time.

And because most of my budget goes to our travel adventures, my dream bag is put on hold. Hay! Can't have both but, I am happy though.

... Still Here

yes, I am.

Just swamped with work and laziness. Sorry blog for not updating you.

Summer is already over! And so far, I am extremely happy with all our summer vacay (Davao, Baguio, Bataan, and Cebu)..

How I wish that I could travel more.. and when I say more, it would be every weekend.. But reality does not permit us to do so.. There are bills to pay (my credit cards), utilities, and of course we need to save.. Well, I just hope it will be my motto next year..

I know I've written in this blog early this year (or late last year) that 2010 is our travel year. And surely, it was. And now, since our passports were renewed, I am looking for our international travel. I am hoping to book for either HK or Singapore trip by December (culmination of my birthday treat, anniversary gift, and holiday gift). I am also tempted to come with my brother in Taiwan, and also looking to travel in Bangkok,Kuala Lumpur, Shanghai and Beijing. If only I have all the money access, I would also love to join my folks in their Canada and US trip by April. Hay, ang sarap. But again, I have to consider a lot of things -- budget wise of course.

So for now, I will just save for our upcoming trip this December :)

Davao Trip

I already blog here about our much-awaited Davao trip. Thank you to our good friends, Jeff and Vlad for scoring a budget fare and also for Ann and Cha (minus Edward since he was in Bora that time)for touring us in Davao and for letting us stay at their place before staying overnight at Pearl Farm.

The experience is truly amazing. How I wish we spent a couple of days more so we could explore and sightsee other tourist spots in Davao, the Samal Island, more food trippings, lots of kwentuhan and more rest of course.

Here are some snapshots of our recent trip.

























** If I have extra budget and internet connection is not a problem, I could stay for 2 more days at Pearl Farm. Food is lip-smacking and my husband could attest to that. But on a serious note, what I love about this place is the exclusivity and the service that you could get. Well, the price we paid for an overnight stay is truly worth every penny!

Davao Here We Come...

I promise myself that this year will be our travel year! And true to my words, we already travelled to Baguio last January (together with my family & family friends).

This february, we will have a quick get-away to Davao (city tour and overnight stay at Pearl farm). Yahoo!

I honestly can't wait to have an R&R. I saved so much for our Pearl Farm trip and hopefully, I would be able to experience their Ylang-Ylang Spa (of course with the husband too!).

Well, I haven't searched yet for the city tour since hubby's friend will be the one to tour us but I already have some ideas on places to go to. I just hope that we could try davao rafting, for experience, visit Hamigit falls, Eden Park, and of course the market for some Davao shopping experience.

As for Pearl Farm, I really have high hopes for this resort since mostly foreigners are visiting this place.

Hay, I can't wait for our vacation!

Short Trip to Caramoan Island

In my previous post, we were supposed to visit Caramoan Island this coming Holy Week. But plans were postponed since the husband and I will accompany my parents for a grand vacation instead.

Lucky for us, my hubby’s aunt and her hubby went on vacationing here in Manila and invited us (together with Kuya’s family) to go with them to Caramoan. It was a long trip for us (took us 12 hours), given that we took the bus going to Naga, then a van going to Sabang port, and a boat ride to Caramoan town.

But if you’ll ask me if everything was worth it.. the answer is YES YES YES!

Knowing that the breeze of the ocean makes your inner senses calm especially with all the stresses here in Manila. It was definitely a retreat for me and hubby. I even told the husband that I can live in that island as long as we have our own house, a yacht, and an internet connection… ahahaha.. silly me… But hey, it is one of the short trips I enjoyed and I am looking forward to visit Caramoan island once more, this time with a company of good friends.
