5 tourist-friendly cities in the world to visit

If you are new to international travel, it can be intimidating. In a new country, you may not know the language or the culture, and the locals may be…. less than friendly.

#UndiscoveredTaipei: 10 things to check out off the tourist path

June 18, 2019 ·

Taiwan has become a very popular tourist destination for Filipinos ever since visa restrictions were lifted. According to figures from the Taiwan tourism bureau, the number of visitors from the Philippines grew by a whopping 44% in 2018, the highest growth among Southeast Asian countries. This is highly understandable since Taiwan is our friendly neighbor, being only two hours away by plane. But when you do manage to visit, it's important to know that there's more to the capital city of Taipei than eating Din Tai Fung dumplings, visiting the night markets, climbing ...

Nong Nooch Tropical Botanical Garden in Pattaya, Thailand

Nong Nooch Tropical Botanical Garden in Pattaya, Thailand

We had a nice family vacation in Pattaya, Thailand the first time but we didn't really get to see the town since we stayed the whole time in the sprawling Royal Cliff Beach Hotel which was quite far from the rest of civilization.

Absolutely loved the cheap eats, the accessible transport and the beaches very near the hotel where one can commune with the rest of the sunbathing tourists. But perhaps the highlight was the day trip to Nong Nooch Botanical ... Continue Reading...

Day tour to the heritage town of Taal, Batangas

Most people from Manila go to Tagaytay, Pansol, Anilao or wherever near when spending their weekends out of the city. Am guilty of that too.But most recently, I went with my friends to a day tour of Taal, Batangas and enjoyed it every step of the way. I highly recommend putting this lovely heritage town on your radar for a historically eye-opening experience :) It was a sunny day and perfect for travelling. Our first stop was the town's famous landmark, the Basilica of St. Martin of Tours, more popularly known as the Taal Cathedral. A fine example of Baroque ... Continue Reading...
