Cebu 4-day Itinerary – Day 3: Cebu City

Our third day in Cebu is a Sunday! We woke up a bit later than planned because of how we were so tired the day prior. I haven’t really checked out our resort so I spent the morning going around for a walk and soaking in the island resort vibes. We had free breakfast but […]

Cebu 4-day Itinerary – Day 2: Carcar Lechon & Simala

If you haven’t read Day 1 yet, click here! So, for Day 2, I decided to take my friends for a road trip down south to try Carcar lechon and visit Simala. I also wanted to bring them to my hometown of Dalaguete, but we didn’t have enough time due to “heavy traffic” in San […]

Cebu 4-Day Itinerary – Day 1: Mactan Island

Last November 2023, I visited Cebu with my office friends for a short weekend trip. We arrived Friday afternoon and went back to Manila Tuesday 1AM. So, this is to share what we did over that weekend, in case you are looking for an itinerary to follow for a weekend trip in Cebu. There are […]

SB19 WYAT Tour Cebu!

Let me back track. I discovered SB19 that same night they blew up on Twitter with the dance practice for Go Up. It was the first time for me to see a Filipino group dance so in sync, to a song that despite being in Tagalog, did not sound cringy at all. Little did I […]

BE Resort – A quick escape

After over a month since the typhoon struck, we still didn’t have electricity and stable internet at home. This really made working from home a challenge. I tried working from my sister’s rented condominium but driving there everyday took 3-4 hours of my precious time. And coming home to a house without electricity didn’t help […]

Odette.

A super typhoon called Odette (international name: RAI) hit us just a week before Christmas. Cebu has always been “lucky” in terms of typhoons. They normally slow down after passing through the outer islands (Cebu is smack in the middle of the Philippines), and the older, more religious generation would say that Cebu is protected […]

#Rundown: November 2021

November was a breeze. Here’s a rundown of the month in photos! Click one and scroll to see the captions! November was a perfect mix of business and pleasure. I managed to go outside the city for a getaway with friends, met up with work friends even just for a while, destressed over mahjong, ate […]

I bought my first house

This isn’t really news given the actual purchase happened back in 2017. A friend of mine (and you’ll see him later in the video below) who is a real estate broker showed me some properties that were on pre-selling back then and I thought it was time for me to get my own place. I’ve […]

A quickie with the OGs

I had to search for the actual meaning of the word and the first definition is “something done or made in a hurry”. So no, it’s not what you think. Haha! After almost a year of not seeing any work mates, my friends from my previous group was able to stop by Cebu for a […]

Soba Kamakura – Best in Cebu!

The pandemic has deprived us all from traveling to our favorite places and countries – mine being Japan. I consider myself lucky though that somehow, there are places in my hometown that takes me there, without having to actually fly there. Soba Kamakura is one of those places. It’s a soba restaurant hidden in a […]
