A few months ago, I was searching for a nice resort around Batangas area for the whole family to stay in at least for a night when Forest Cove Beach House was given to me by the reliable Mr. Google. I don’t know anything about it, I’ve never even heard of someone I know who’s … Continue reading »

Day 120 of 363 blog post challenge: The (Much Needed) Vacation
I am seriously running behind this 363 blog post challenge and I have a very valid reason for being so, I went home for a 5-day vacation and spending time with my family is more important for me than to update this blog entry as it’s only once a year that I get to spend … Continue reading »
Day 110 of 363 blog post challenge: Definitely Dubai
I oftentimes take for granted the things around me, specially the fact that I am living in one of the most powerful and rich city in the world right now: Dubai. I’ve been here for almost 5 years now and it has gone past by me like a blink of an eye. I don’t know … Continue reading »
Day 100 of 363 blog post challenge: Choose Philippines: Choose Taal.
Having a very close proximity of our town to this place, it’s a favorite weekend destination of my family and friends. We usually go there for relaxation, stuffing our face silly with delectable Filipino cuisine and admiring the view of the Taal volcano in the middle of Taal lake at the veranda of Starbucks perched … Continue reading »
Day 99 of 363 blog post challenge: I was here, Cove Rotana
Can you believe that this photo right here was taken in the middle east? I couldn’t believe it either considering the fact that we happen to chance upon this resort because we got lost and was in dire need of food and that was the nearest resort from where we were at the time. It … Continue reading »
Day 70 of 363 blog post challenge: Fall in line or die.
We had our last meal in Sri Lanka at Top Secret which is a beach bar cum restaurant. I had mixed fried rice which was AMAZING! Well ok, consider the fact that I’m Asian and I eat rice with everything. So give me a bowl-full of fried rice with shrimps or beef or pork then … Continue reading »

Yesterday was the first “productive” day for us as a tourist I must say. The boyfriend was feeling better so after breakfast, we explored everything that we can fit for this day.

Day 68 of 363 blog post challenge: of humidity and the sea
So we are now at Hikkaduwa beach, the 7-hr ride last night was painful – literally. The driver doesn’t know where to go so it took us longer. Anyhow, important thing is – we’re here. We’re staying at Coral Sands Hotel which I was quite afraid would bea crappy one according to the reviews, but … Continue reading »
Day 67 of 363 blog post challenge: Of sickness while traveling.
We were supposed to go see the Lion Rock Fortress today but unfortunately, someone is sick. And that someone is NOT me, I’m surprised of it myself. I can’t say that I’m not disappointed for not being able to see the Fortress because that’s the only reason why Sigiriya is even in the itinerary but … Continue reading »
Day 64 of 363 blog post challenge: The Lanka Escapade
Blogging from phone so this will be short. I am currently in Sigiriya in Sri Lanka right now, a province 4 hours away from the capital, Colombo. We paid LKR10300 for the airport transfer from the tourist kiosk at the airport which is around USD90, the same rate I saw from the advices of previous … Continue reading »
