“Never run for a bus, train or a man. When one leaves, another arrives.” I still remember the first time I saw this quote many years ago. Having realized how I’ve done what it says otherwise, I posted the quote in Facebook so that others may benefit from this nugget of wisdom. I also vividly…
Funny Face Part 2
I’ve always felt a special connection to things of the past. Proof: My appreciation to Golden Oldies music triggered by listening to radio as a kid with the parents every Sunday, my fascination with history resulting to me visiting Egypt early this year, my love for classic novels and tales of eras gone by through…
Weekend Reading
There were a lot of great articles worth sharing last week that didn’t make it to a compilation post to give way to my Vienna travel blog (check it out!) so I made an advanced list for this week. Hope you don’t mind. 😜 Plus, this Friday I might be busy checking out some Black Friday…
Vienna’s Palaces: Belvedere and Schönbrunn
You’ll probably give me an eye-roll for this but having realized how Schloss Schönbrunn, is like a mini Versailles of Paris, I decided to skip doing a tour of this Habsburg’s 1441-room summer residence. As you may have read already from a previous post here, I went to the Palace of Versailles and suddenly got…
Weekend Reading
Only Mr. Right can save me from the Singles’ Day Sales. Lol. Henlo! 👋 Just quickly checking up on everyone’s battle with the 11.11 sales. How did you manage? Haha. Something exciting happened last week as I was invited by LeFlair to be one of their influencer for their 11.11 campaign. It was a fun…
5 Life Lessons Reinforced When I Visited Kaparkan Falls
Cataractophile. It’s the closest word my Google search gave me for a waterfall lover. After unlocking a few more waterfalls in my recent Cebu Spartan trip, I think I am already officially declaring myself one. Speaking of official, cataractophile should also make it to Oxford English dictionary, don’t you think? Kawasan Falls was once a…
Weekend Reading
It’s a loooong weekend and it’s been a while since I last did this thing that I promised to do weekly (haha!) so let’s skip long introductions and just dig into it, shall we? Here’s my recommended list of readings and events. Travel. On Visiting Cemeteries When Traveling I guess this travel-related post is just…
Funny Face
I couldn’t think of a better timely post for this Halloween dress-up week than this Funny Face recreation mini project of mine. To be honest, I didn’t on purpose shoot this for this November occasion but rather, the concept was plotted the moment I found out about this arc installation somewhere in the metro. While…
Self-Care
If there’s one thing I realized about myself in the past when it comes to dealing with relationship issues with friends (goodluck if you expected men on that one), it’s that I tend to avoid the confrontational path and resort to keeping things to myself. I’ve always thought this was the mature path to take…
Paris’ Museums
Art novice? Same here. But I don’t let that intimidate me. Rather, I take my time whenever in Europe to continuously develop that art connoisseur in me. I know it just needs to be summoned deep down inside me. It does help that the work of arts are housed in iconic locations (Louvre, I’m looking…
