About Me
Why Travel?
At one point in your life you will feel exhausted, bored and tired of your routinary life. When that day comes, just step out of your comfort box, move away from your usual self and see your life from different perspectives. Travel! Head out to the endless horizon and discover the world, go places and meet new faces, explore to understand new cultures, get lost to find yourself. In the end you will realize that traveling is not only about learning new cultures or meeting new friends or discovering new places, it also lets us discover our own culture, our limits, ourselves. It is a personal journey to self-discovery, because after all, it is only from the outside that we can look back in.

thanks for dropping by my site! and have fun on ur trip here in sg.
must try:
food – chilli crab with deep fried bun, cereal prawn, baby squid, barbecued stingray and if ur feeling adventurous, frog porridge
tourist spot – underwater world, luge, dolphin show, light show@sentosa, jurong bird park, singapore zoo and night safari, reverse bungee@clarke quay
shopping center – funan/sim lim square for electronics and gadgets, queensway shopping centre for all your sporting needs, and nothing beats duty free shopping at the airport (esp for perfumes), orchard road for other fashion needs
that’s pretty much it… oh, don’t forget to visit chinatown (heritage centre). and get kaya toast + soft boiled eggs (mix with a little soy sauce and white pepper) + coffee or milo for breakfast
I found this site at Wikepedia and surprised to find Capones Island in this site. I’m from San Antonio, Zambales where Capones Island is located and sad that you did not mentioned the smaller island, Camera Island.
Long time that I have not seen the islands and the way I see the century old Parola (in your pic) was already delapidated (napabayaan na). When the American base was still present at Subic, this was being maintained and the blinking lights from the light house could be seen during the night. Unfortunately, now its gone on my last vacation last April ’08.
Hope to see a post related to Bolinao, Dagupan or Alaminos in the coming months hehe
Can’t wait for your Culion entry! (di pa nga nakakaalis LOL)

hi! wow i love your blog. i’ve always wanted one for myself. yun nga not possible kasi im not travelling much naman. i want it kasi na the places i post about are the ones i visited on my own. someday na lang cgro. hihihi
nice site! kudos!
Your blog is really informative to the travellers who want to experience the beauty of the Philippines in any means. And I am so envious actually that you were able to roam and travel each side of the Philippines. lol. How I wish I get special discounts on travel fare. lol
i’ve always wanted to have a site like this to showcase my travels and photos. what you have here is great. It’s good that you’re focusing on the Philippine wonders. While I focus on whole southeast asia, I must admit that I am still a bit of a tourist here in the Phils. Keep it up. If you need contributions, just drop me a message.
