Underground River – Palawan
Palawan has been a familiar name to me ever since I was in high school. A cousin of mine married someone from the place so they settled in this place known as the cleanest city in the Philippines, Puerto Princesa Palawan. See the #ByaheNgKokobears Palawan Adventure overview here. I have been curious about the world renowned Underground River and just last year (2015) December I had my personal experience of this enchanting place! Let me start by saying at first I thought we were unlucky to be in Palawan during these final days of the year wherein the last sets of typhoons are also scheduled to hit the places…

5 Basic Things to prepare when you go Canyoneering
This latest fad in Southern Cebu has been on the bucketlist for many. So I am sharing you what are the 5 basic things to preparing when you go Canyoneering. 1. Your mind and the adventurer in you. As I have given you a spoiler a while ago… you have to be prepared and have the mind-set of an adventurer (especially those who are not). The trek will require you most of the time to jump a variation of heights (falls). There will also be a lot of rock scrambling/climbing. Sharing it here for you to be mentally ready. 2. Light breakfast It is needed for the energy to use…

CEBU: Canyoneering Adventure
Many have tried and conquered this new adventure craze in Cebu! Of course, Kokobear and I tried and have rated it a 5 star expereince! 8th & 9th December 2015 were scheduled for an Overnight stay at Osmenan Peak and the day after is for Canyoneering!!! How to get here: From Cebu South Bus terminal – ride a bus going to Bato via Barili and ask the conductor to drop you at Barangay Malabago, Badian. It will take approximately 3 hours to get there. In our case, our providers’ representatives (Mike & Randy) were waiting for us in the highway near the school/barangay office. Our adventure provider is Highland Adventures. We started…

PH Vacation 2015
For an OFW like me it is a reward to be on vacation at least 30 days (1 month) once a year. Last year Kokobear and I took our trip into a bit of a higher level by making our time table fully booked! We Visited 5 places in one month! We kicked off in Tagaytay, Makati, Cebu, Bohol and Palawan. Full packed indeed! 1. Tagaytay – This is the first time for me to go out of Luzon (NAIA Airport) and enjoy “Manila” or out of Manila area. We packed for a 4-day trip with fellow Singles for Family & Life Abu Dhabi household group and enjoyed the…

Bohol – December 2015
Bohol is one of the closest places of my own hometown, Cebu! It has a special space in my travel box heart because this is the first place I step foot into outside Cebu! My first time was during the wedding of Ms. Lisa’s brother; let’s say around 2008 I guess. I was with GEOS Teachers! This time is another special chance to visit this place, this time, I am with my one and only Kokobear ♥. Preparation took place as earlier as January of 2015 – as we planned the whole December vacation. Bohol is scheduled on – – 2015. Our stay at Astoria Plaza Bohol was a blast!…

Tagaytay Trip with SFL
It has been a while since my last groupie outing in the Philippines. I guess the last one was with my GEOS Angels. So this trip with my SFL Brethren excites me! We had a car that picks us up from the airport, courtesy of Ate Lou. During this trip Bro. Christian suggested a “Bank sharing” a type of expense sharing he did with his bros & cousin when he went to Jordan. This is where we all give a certain amount of money considered as a bank where we take all our daily expenses. Once the bank is empty, we then deposit once again up until the last…
