BOHOL: Island Hopping

Bohol aside from its famous Chocolate Hills is also known for its wonderful beaches. It is rich not only in touristy land destinations but also in different beautiful islands. This is my last installment of my Bohol tour particularly on Island hopping. If you haven't read my previous post of my Bohol trip, you can read it here and here.

Caliraya Resort Club: Team Building Venue

I organized our company team building held last March and upon many research and choices, we came up to this venue. I was assisted eagerly by the Sales Manager through calls and constant e-mails. Aside from the team building activities and swimming pools, they still have lots to offer such as zipline, skybicycle, horseback riding, fishing, wall climbing &  rappelling including water activities like kayak, canoe, etc. but it all have separate payment. The resort is situated in Brgy. Lewin, Lumban, Laguna and a 3 hour drive from Taguig and we got it 2.5 hour homeward.

Sometimes it's good to walk away

"Life is what we make it" as the famous adage says. Indeed, Life is a matter of choice. We are where we are today because of the choices we have made.

Private Resorts in Pansol, Laguna

We all feel the heat of summer. The scorching heat of the sun penetrates deep within the skin and all we want to do to beat the heat is to take a plunge.

So, here are some of the private resorts I have been to located in Calamba, Laguna. You may check their website or fan page for their updated rates.

Private Oasis Resort

We held our company outing here twice. There were billiards & videoke and activity area where we had fun games and were also gathered for meal time. The mountain view is very beautiful.

Bohol Land Tour

Here's the second installment of my Bohol trip. If you haven't read my first post you can see it here.

Bohol: Dumaluan Beach Resort

When we went to Bohol, we had our accommodation at Dumaluan Beach Resort in Panglao. It was a nice place to stay, the food were good and the room was also neat and organized. I just don't have the picture of our room since it wasn't for blogging before.

I love the beach and its serenity. There is also a swimming pool available. It's a great place to sit back and relax especially at night wherein there was also a band.

I only have few photos so here's the glimpse of how lovely the resort is.

Daily Dose of Gratitude

Since last year, I want to make it a point to have the sacrament of confession atleast once every annum. And because it's lenten season there's always a "Kumpisalang Bayan" scheduled in each Parish.

Just a while ago I had a confession in our Church. The priest told me that this season of Lent is not all about prayer & fasting but also focusing on gratitude. He mentioned on our conversation that sometimes we focus on things that we do not have which makes us unhappy. We find it hard to become happy with the victory of others because what they have is exactly the same thing we long to ourselves but there are so much blessings that we should be grateful for.  There are people who have much more than we do but on the other hand, there are also who have less. Yes, very true.

A note to self while waiting..(bible verses)

Well, I've just heard a news wherein someone dear to me already got something that I too been praying for myself and longing for quite some time now. My friend has it now whilst me, still hoping and waiting for it to come and that made me so upset though I know I shouldn't. I should be happy instead and this feeling is so strange why I felt this way. Maybe I just got so pressured that my time has not yet come forgetting that God works for our good and that he Has his own timetable in which His timing is perfect. I almost cried so before getting a bit disheartened I tried searching for bible verses that will uplift my mood.

Skywalk Extreme Adventure

When we checked in at Crown Regency Hotel in Cebu City, this activity of Skywalk is free of charge for guests so we grabbed the opportunity for this one of  a kind experience. It was conducted at 37th floor of the Hotel. We availed the adventure at the evening. It was so windy that night and it made me somewhat difficult to ramble because I felt that I was being swayed by the wind. I don't have fear of heights but I was nervous, it was my first time to be in that highest peak. 

Coffee Project - Lakefront

I've noticed that Coffee Project has been rising anywhere particularly in Vista Malls. Upon searching their menu I've found out that they serve pasta. I'm not a coffee person, I rarely drink frappe, I'm just a pasta lover so I've tried to taste the pasta that they offer. We went to one of its branch in Lakefront, Sucat on a friday night out.

It has cool ambiance, its interior design and dim light surroundings add a factor. It's a nice place to just chill and relax. Their tagline is "sit and sip".

Enchanting Coron, Palawan

How great our God is for gracing me the experience to travel and have witnessed his majestic creatures.

We have visited the most awesome island in the Philippines, Palawan, mainly in Coron. Its lovely and scenenic view adding its stillness made into a peaceful paradise that soothes for an idyllic vacation.

Happy & Prosperous New Year to all!

I want to begin this new year's blog post with a Godly message.

Sometimes when life strikes us with problems and difficulties we get discouraged and down but God is commanding us to be strong for He is with us all the time. He gives us strength to make it through hardships and it is his will that we get triumph over it.

Singapore - Malaysia DIY Trip

Hi everyone! How have you been preparing for Christmas? I've been very busy and got so occupied with work but I don't want this month come to pass without sharing my first out of the country travel experience.

One afternoon in the office, my colleague had seen an airline promo to Hongkong but when she was about to book, the promo was no longer available. So after browsing, she found a promo to Singapore. Right there and then, us being impulsive, had booked ourselves a flight going to Singapore. Lost in thought, that the country is an expensive one to visit. We have also inquired thru travel agency about the tour package but still the quotation was expensive so we decided for a d-i-y tour.

DIY bridal shower props

We threw a mini bridal shower for my Sister-In-Law. Since our spa party didn't push through, we just decided to spend it at my cousins house. Because I am fond of crafts, I utilized again the resources I have at home to come up with these simple props.

Boracay Experience

There's beauty that lies behind sunset which I'm fond of that I cannot explain. I just feel that its stunning view soothes me. And I've heard that sunset is best seen in Boracay. And I believe that these photos have proven what they say.

Worry no more

"Don’t fret or worry. Instead of worrying, pray. Let petitions and praises shape your worries into prayers, letting God know your concerns. Before you know it, a sense of God’s wholeness, everything coming together for good, will come and settle you down. It’s wonderful what happens when Christ displaces worry at the center of your life." -Philippians 6:7

In God's perfect time...

"God makes all things beautiful in His time..."

What do I love about blogging?

Photo by Google

One day, I accidentally browsed a fashion blog and eventually I regularly read the updates until I follow another blogs. Suddenly, I felt an urge to have my own blog too so when I've heared about the free blogging on blogspot.com from my colleague, I started to create my own right away and explored it myself.

Luljetta's Hanging Gardens and Spa

I've wanted to celebrate our first wedding anniversary in a relaxing and pampering way and I love to be with nature so I chose to book at Luljetta's Hanging Gardens and Spa which is located inside Loreland Farm Resort in Antipolo, one of its hidden gem as they say. It's the first ever hanging gardens in the Philippines. We've availed an overnight package but the stay in Luljetta's is just for seven hours inclusive of meals and use of all the amenities.

How God Works In Me

"Do not let your hearts be troubled, trust in God and trust also in Me." -John 14:1

Iyan ang pinakapaborito kong bible verse na madalas binabanggit ni Bro. Mike Velarde sa kanyang pagpreach sa gawain ng El Shaddai.
