Can’t give up your worldly possessions to stay permanently in Coron? Just get a glimpse of this gem. But if you have less than four days to enjoy its sights and attractions, how do you choose? I can help you get started. I’ve been to Coron only once last September this year, so I’m far…

We stayed at Hotel Elizabeth twice and paid from our own pocket for both stays. Why twice? It’s because of a booking mistake. We don’t regret it. A staycation is in order when you need to catch up on your sleep debts and break your digital addiction. HOTEL ELIZABETH Address: Archbishop Reyes Avenue, Kamputhaw, Cebu City,…

Love underwater photos? I’m not in the mood to write a lengthy post so I decided to simply share with you a few photos of Coron Island’s underwater treasures. This is not film-grade quality but it’s something. Plus, it’s free. So, you’re welcome to ogle these images or use them as teasers so your buddies…

Our travel agency in Coron booked us in R2R Bayview Inn. While we had no complaints about the inn’s location and restaurant menu, the room given us was musty and dated. We could have ignored these but the room also lacked proper window locks, closet, and bed. We paid P8,300 for our 4D/3N tour package, so…

Okay, I’m no high fantasy fiction fan. I haven’t even read Harry Potter completely. But as soon as I read the first few pages of Brandon Sanderson’s books, The Way of Kings and Mistborn, I was hooked. Who wouldn’t? It’s crazy that anyone can through adolescence and adulthood without an experience of Sanderson’s well-crafted worlds.…

Luckily, we found a few cozy coffee corners during our stay that I…

When you reach Coron town proper, don’t forget to look up and check out Mt. Tapyas. The label “CORON” in white font will be your guide. If you’ve searched other blogs about the way to Mt. Tapyas, you’d be told to look for Malvar Street and an Iglesia ni Cristo church. Once you spot this…

Where to stay in Coron? You won’t find a list of hotels, inns, and guesthouses here. But you will read a first-hand account of R & R Bayview Inn and Coron Gateway Hotel and Suites. Let me guess. You’re not fastidious about where you stay while on vacation. After all, you’re not going to spend the…

I received a lot of inquiries after I published “SSS Salary Loan for Self-Employed or Voluntary Members: A Quick Guide” so I figured I should post more about my SSS saga. Again, for the third time, the BPO company I was working at filed for bankruptcy. It happens. Sometimes, I feel like I jinxed it…

Em and Intramuros – two of my favorite subjects lately. And I just discovered a way to see them simultaneously. I caught up with Em while gliding around Intramuros on a Segway. What could be more fun?! I’ve always wanted to mount and ride a Segway ever since I saw it on YouTube. Dean Kamen was…
