So This Is Quaipo


Aside from the famous Minor Basilica of the Black Nazarene, this could very well be the next best (worst) thing to symbolize Quiapo -- a homeless child with no one to care for. Sad but true.

Unleashing The Daredevil In Me


I'd gladly freeze this moment if I could. I can't explain the thrill I felt lying on this rock knowing that a little wrong move could get me killed in an instant. This was in Mt. Maculot in Cuenca, Batangas and that vast sea of blue green beneath me is the Taal Lake.

Hope This Gets To Italy


It's funny how my dad asked me to take a photo of this orchid and post it on Facebook for my stepmom who's in Rome right now to see. He said this was her favorite flower. I thought it's funny coz he might've forgotten that my stepmom and I don't go along really well. But since I'm not a bad son, I asked my brother to post it for her. :)

An Encounter With The Mummies


Hi! I just came back from my weekend trip in Kabayan, Benguet where I had a close encounter with the infamous fire mummies of Mt. Timbac. Never mind that we traveled 7 grueling hours on rough road from Baguio City to reach the cave where these mummies are being kept... the exhaustion was all worth it! When before I only get to see them on the National Geographic channel, now I can proudly say that I had the rare chance of seeing them face to face. Isn't it amazing? :)
