Taipei 101: An Easy Guide to Visiting Taiwan's Talllest Building
One of the best ways to enjoy panoramic views of the city is by booking a trip to the observatory. I think it's always a good idea. There's something comforting about looking at skyscrapers (at least for me), especially at night, with all the lights. Taipei 101 is...


I Love These | Otoki's JIN Ramen & Stir-Fry Cheesy Ramen
Christmas came early! I received a PR package from Otoki PH last month, and I was so happy about it because I actually like one of their products- JIN Ramen (mild flavor). It’s one of my go-to instant ramen packs when I crave something soupy or want to enjoy a quick midnight snack. For this gift, I got four items- one JIN Ramen Spicy, one JIN Ramen Mild, one Stir Fry Cheesy Ramen in Cheddar & Mascarpone, and one Stir Fry Cheesy Ramen in Spic flavor. A Delicious Holiday Treat


Love Sanrio? Visit The Cutest 7-11 in Ximending, Taipei | Hello Kitty主題店
One of the cutest things I found in Taipei was this Pink Sanrio-themed 7-11. You can find it along Hankou Street, and it’s so adorable! I saw this while strolling and looking for a place to grab coffee...the cutest 7-11 in Ximending


Where to Go in Puerto Princesa | Itinerary Ideas
Known for its subterranean river national park, White beaches, and cleanliness, it’s not surprising Puerto Princesa is well-liked among beach lovers. It is also Palawan’s capital (and the gateway to other gorgeous spots within the island)...where to go in Puerto Princesa


Yama Japanese Cave Bar at Princesa Garden Island Resort
As I was checking for restaurants close to our accommodation, I found this cave bar, which was only five minutes away and looked new (indeed it was, at that time). It's called Yama Japanese Cave Bar...you can find it Princesa Garden Island Resort

Hello, hello. Today, I’ll take you to another spot in Puerto Princesa where you can buy snacks or stop over to rest. The place is called Baker’s Hill, and it’s like a small park that has restaurants, food stalls, a bakery, a playground, and cute characters you can take photos with.

Don't Underestimate What Simple Acts of Kindness Can Do
Today, I'll share a few simple acts of kindness that don't require a lot. In today's world, I believe this is very important because there's so much going on, and according to the World Health Organization, more than 1 billion people are living with mental health conditions (mostly anxiety and depression).


Life Lately | Exchange Gift, Quick Haul, and Other Things
One of the things that makes me excited before the new year is deciding which planner to get. I started looking for options as early as September, and for 2026, I opted to go for this simple monthly planner from TikTok. It’s not in my favorite color (which is Purple), but I still like it. It’s in hot Pink and has Gold spiral binding.


A Quick Trip to Cebu for our Family Reunion
Last month, we attended our family reunion in Cebu and saw some relatives once again (after a long time). Our trip was short and sweet, but we had fun. It would have been nice to stay longer, but we had scheduled commitments that same week, so we had to fly back to Manila right after. The venue was at Marco Polo Plaza in Cebu (Lahug). It's a beautiful hotel away from the city, about 50 minutes from the airport. If you're traveling to Cebu and want to stay somewhere less busy,


A Simple Family Dinner for Lola Tessie's Birthday | Celebrating Life
Not everyone reaches their 90s (or even 80s nowadays), so I’m thankful that both of my grandmothers are still alive, and I got to see one celebrate another year of life. Lola Tessie is the grandmother we grew up with (I love my other grandma just as much). I was with her for the most part during my early childhood because we did church activities together. She would tag me along during processions, prayer meetings, and the like . I would also hang out with her at the Pasig
