(Note: This is one of my interesting articles I've safekept which was previously published in Weddings Magazine. If you have another engrossing story to tell, care to share them here:) Like Julia Roberts' character Maggie Carpenter in Runaway Bride, my friend Ron is a runaway groom - two times over. Twice, he mustered enough courage to propose to his two serious girlfriends and twice he called the engagement off - naturally with heartbreaking results. Ron's first engagement was to his officemate Tina. They were on-and-off for six years. Ron proposed to her during ... Continue Reading...
Travelling light
Am such a disciple for travelling light that there have been times I carried it to the extreme. Once, I ran out of clothes on the third day of a four-day vacation. This is because I loathe the idea of lugging around too heavy luggages , even carry-ons, especially in international airports where you have to walk something like a kilometer to traverse one terminal to the next.

Local plane fares getting cheaper
Got in just in time to avail of Cebu Pacific's Unfare! promo which ended yesterday. I have to admit that I booked on a whim but the One Peso fare to select destinations in the country was just too cheap to resist.

The great Palawan landscape (updated)
Palawanscapes Somebody wuld probably ask me which is more beautiful: Palawan or Bora? I'd have to say there is really no comparison between the two because they possess different levels of appeal. Bora is more commercial and nothing beats it as a beach party place. Palawan on the other hand is serene and you go there to enjoy nature at its best. Am still too busy to blog but am posting here some pics of my recent vacation to Puerto Princesa City. Most of these were taken as we went island-hopping and exploring the place's natural wonders. ... Continue Reading...
