From Lockdown to Paradise in Boracay

For the past two years, I’ve yearned to explore beyond my hometown. When Boracay reopened to tourists, I finally booked a flight, marking my first visit to this renowned destination. Originally scheduled for March 17, 2020, just days after the Philippines entered lockdown, my plans were postponed due to the pandemic, which left me dreaming of spending the entire lockdown on this captivating island.

Capturing the Familiar Feeling of Home at PATIO ENRICO

Capturing patrons with a stellar dining experience is what truly sets great restaurants apart. In the competitive food and hospitality industry, any opportunity to offer a distinctive and memorable meal will help you stand out and succeed. From fine dining to themed restaurants with a unique niche, it’s ultimately the customer’s experience and satisfaction that matter most.

Tiring Yet Enjoyable Day One In Taiwan

Taipei, the capital of Taiwan, is a modern metropolis with Japanese colonial lanes, busy shopping streets, and contemporary buildings. The skyline crowned by the 509m-tall, bamboo-shaped Taipei 101 skyscraper.

Taiwan was never in my bucket list of places to visit only when I saw pictures shared by my friends online; it made me think twice, and why not visit it? Filipinos are granted a free visa until next year, and that is an excellent opportunity to visit Taiwan.

There are many things to love about Taipei, like its night markets and many museums. But beyond its attractions, what makes Taipei so alluring for me, is the city itself. With conveniences like a cheap but incredibly efficient metro system and its overabundance of well-maintained public parks, it’s a city that puts its people first.

We had a late-night flight via Air Asia, which is around 11:15 PM. The travel time will be approximately one and a half hours.
When we arrived at Taoyuan Airport, it was not that cold or hot, but it gave us a welcoming vibe. Because it was around 2 AM when I arrived, MRT is closed, and the only way you can go to Taipei is either hire a taxi or wait for the bus, which comes every hour.

I Quit Social Media for 30 Days – Here’s What Happened

This is a long-due post.  Yeah. I’m too lazy to update my blog for certain reasons like being busy at work, traveling or sleeping during weekends.

I know it will be super hard for me because I’m always online based on my work. (Remotely) but I told my two office colleagues if I failed this challenge I would treat them out for free in a buffet restaurant. (The expensive buffet restaurant in Manila).
