No matter how many articles I devour on how this geologic masterpiece was formed by nature, I still can’t wrap my head around it. Not sure if everybody feels the same way about Horseshoe Bend. It’s actually the same thing with Monument Valley as well as all the other attractions I visited in Arizona. Lol….

Monument Valley
“There are certain places in the world that seem like special effects, they don’t seem real. They’re too perfect.” – a film historian once said about Monument Valley. It was last minute when I brought up the idea of Monument Valley to Wil. It may have been a mere 2-hr drive away from Page, Arizona…
Best of the West
Welcome to the Fabulous Las Vegas – where the buzzing nightlife is begging to be explored. Wil (my LA-based internet cousin, lol) had this idea that the best way to beat my jet lag upon arriving in sunny Cali is via a 5-hr drive to Sin City straight from picking me up at the airport….
Paris Recap
Is there any better way to celebrate love week than doing another City of Love post? Nah, I don’t think so. Lol. This week, I decided to do a recap of all my Paris’ posts just in case you missed reading any of them. Lol. In addition, I will be covering other places I’ve visited…
Amsterdam
Could it be that your affection for a place be biased because you dated someone in the past who came from that city? Weird but that was true for my case. But visiting Amsterdam for the first time, I was ready to give it a “second” chance, you know. Hmmp, second chances. Tsk. Lol. After…
Calle Crisologo
In my Kaparkan Falls visit last year, I had a chance to stop by Vigan for a day and having different feelings towards it from my last visit back in 2013 especially Calle Crisologo. It’s a historic street paved with cobblestones and old Spanish buildings that’s supposed to conjure a vision of a trip back…
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…
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…
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…
Taipei 2019
They say third time’s the charm-ing (Huh? Lol.) It’s my third time in Taipei and our family’s Mr. Charming definitely is our new trip companion, Papa. Some of you may have followed some of our family’s trips before and may have noticed that never once did Papa come to join us. He has his reasons…
