Ormoc, Leyte. I arrive and I find peace.
Yet peace belies a story that refuses to settle.
I listen as I walk in the dead of night.
Sounds that unravel a mystery but ignorance plagues my mind.
I hear silence that echoes thousands of cries.
Cries that were never heard, of souls that remain unfound.
I wanted to write some entries on my thoughts and tips of a particular destination I’ve been. I’m starting it off with Macau as we only spent a day there; which means I have lesser thoughts, hehe. I can’t really call this a Guide, but you may pick up some notes and tidbits that you might find useful if ever you drop by this area of the globe.
Spending some time in Macau made me wonder where the people get the money to bet and gamble. It also made me see how buildings were carefully put up in order to form stunning structures with great entertainment to included.
This was a great way for me to check out what the place has to offer as I didn’t really expect a lot except for the bungee jumping experience at the Macau tower. Here are a few thoughts and tips about Macau that you can use for reference. Hope this post helps!

Two days after my birthday, I had the privilege of joining a group of bloggers to spend three days and two nights in Boracay. I was chosen as one of the winners of Seair and Microtel’s Boracay Blogger’s Tour. I published an entry on why I deserved to be part of the eight people who should go to this ultimate destination and I was very lucky enough to be chosen by Seair and Microtel judges.
Here’s my write-up about it: I’ve been to Different Places, but I’ve Never Been to Boracay

I also wondered if I could take part of the event since I’m from Cebu and the rest of the winners were from Manila. After a few emails, I was booked a ticket from Cebu to Caticlan. It’s great that Seair has more options now in offering a ride from the Queen City of the South to this island paradise.
Sinulog 2010 Every Third Sunday of January Sinulog 2010 was an endurance test for me. It was my first time to participate in the Sinulog event – really participate by going out into the streets and practice my skills in taking pictures while experiencing the weather being crazy and all. It seemed clear in the … Read more
Still stayed in Serendra at night when the lights were abound and everything was the way I pictured it as if I were in some commercial wherein a guy proposes to her girlfriend for marriage. There were a number of restaurants for the upper class market and we just had to take pictures of the … Read more
March 22, 2008 Good Friday We were supposed to go to our main destination today, but it was postponed. So we spent it at the city proper instead (Ormoc). We watched reruns of 7th Heaven on Studio 23 in the pension house, probably a sign of boredome? hehe. At night we went strolling, walking and … Read more
