Seven hours away from Cagayan de Oro City, a two-hour ferry ride from Surigao del Norte and an hour away from Siargao's main town, General Luna, you'll get to this one heck of a beaut. The journey may be lengthy but the destination left me captivated. But still, it doesn't mean the journey can't be fun. Pack up your speakers, swimwear and finger food. Let's get this started!
So here it is, as promised. A lot of people messaged me as soon as I posted my recent travel photos where it showed the iconic Eiffel Tower and everything that spells P-A-R-I-S. Ever since I was a little girl, it's not a question that the City of Love has always been a dream destination. Ain't that true for almost every girl out there? I'd imagine myself in my beanie, coat and boots, eating croissants in a quaint café while marvelling at the beauty of the iron tower of France. Well, here's the thing, all that's possible in just two hours away from the Philippines.
Sun's out in the Philippines but we're trading the heat for something cool and invigorating this summer at Hong Kong. Yup, we're back here again! A few might say that we should have tried a different country this time, but we've decided to explore the other parts of Hong Kong that we haven't visited so that it's a full check on our #bucketlist. Now we get it why tourists from around the world keep on coming back to this place. There's just so many things to try and experience!

Come away with me to Asia's Lion City. This place has been branded as one of the top emerging countries of the world. Rumor has it that the people here are very well-disciplined and they implement their laws very strictly. This was under the rule of the late Lee Kuan Yew, Singapore's first Prime Minister. What a dream for every country! And now that I've finally visited this place, I am happy to confirm that those aren't just rumors. Singapore truly is superb! Don't have second thoughts about booking that ticket now.
To one of the happiest places in the world we go ~ HONGKONG DISNEYLAND!!! I think it's an undisputed fact that this is the best part of my trip. Everything here reminded me so much of my childhood. The inner child in Me and Ton automatically surfaced!
Say hello to the "Little Amsterdam" of Cebu!
What a way to spend our afternoon here in Cebu with these beautiful Sirao flowers! The journey to this place was, I must say, definitely one for the books. The road to these flower fields was long and crazy but believe me when I tell you that difficult roads often lead you to wonderful destinations. Read on to know more about one of the many adventures we had during our 4-day stay in the Queen City of the South.
Ni Hao Ma!!! Let me fill you in on the deets of my long overdue October 2015 travel diaries.
My excitement to get here was intense. Not only was I excited to see the beauty of this Asian country but I'm thrilled as it is also my first international travel with my boyfriend, Ton. *giggles*
