A few days ago, our band of bloggers was out of town again but this time it was different. It was a trip to discover our own mortality and how we should prepare for the reality of dying someday.

Inasmuch as we try to enjoy life while as much as we can, we should also endeavor to leave behind our earthly existence in the best way possible.And this was it.... Centennial Garden is poised to ...

One day in Pampanga with NorthPine Land: 5 things to see and do

Being just a two-hour drive away, Pampanga is one of those places that's highly accessible from Manila. I've travelled to this province several times either on personal trips with my family or as part of a tour, and it's something I will never get tired of. One can go shopping.... savor a food trip.... there's an assortment of restaurants in Clark, Angeles City and beyond do physical activities like hiking in Mount Pinatubo... or simply enjoy a weekend staycation at any of the hotels...they're as good, if not more scenic, than the ones in Manila. Recently, ... Continue Reading...

Ten Thousand Buddhas Monastery in Shatin

June 5, 2016 ·

The 10,000 Buddhas Monastery in Shatin is often overlooked by many tourists to Hong Kong. After all, how many of us will bother riding the East Rail Line all the way up the New Territories? But am telling you it's well worth the visit if you want something out of the ordinary from the hustle and bustle of HK. The entrance is impressive enough. There are approximately 500 golden life-size statues lining the pathway. One couldn't help but be amazed, if not amused, with their different poses and expressions. Prepare to exercise. I regretted not ... Continue Reading...
