It’s 2012 and I’m thinking “hey why not come up with a new set of resolutions and publish them in a blog post?”
But before I do that, let me share with you my 2010 list and see if I’m up to no good.
1. Have a complete set of abs. – Well I realized that this isn’t what I want. My abs are visible but not ripped, which is fine by me. HALF CHECK
2. Shop less, give more. – I have given away a

Lucerne offered us a badly-needed break from urban Madrid. Trees, flowers, bushes, swans and lakes, it could not get any more zen-like than this quaint city (population: 59,000) of Switzerland. So ungodly is 8 o’ clock in the evening, that most shops pretty much closed by then, which sucks (big time). Quirks aside, Lucerne is as good as it gets.When I think Switzerland, I think of the majestic

My first weekend in Madrid was certainly something to look forward to. My cousin Tinky promised to take us to the Mercado, a place she fondly describes as a Valhalla for foodies. She knew I loved good food. I think I love spending money on good food is more like it.
We kicked off the day commuting to the Sentro district of Madrid, where the shopping and the hustle and bustle converge into

A month ago I introduced the first edition of what we coined as the “Blog Caravan” to my fellow Davao Bloggers. It’s a pretty cool idea. I dictate a theme, and whoever wants to write about it, writes about it, and gets to be featured on the host’s blog. That’s me, Andrew and my blog, Yeah, Drew.I thought that for our first theme it should be about promoting Davao City, its popular tourist

After reading Chyng Reyes’ horrendous experience in Bali recently, I think it’s time that I wrote about mine.I was on a holiday with five friends of mine last November. The trip would start in Singapore, then we’d fly out to Penang, Malaysia, followed by Kuala Lumpur and back. On our third day in Singapore, we took a ferry to Batam Island, an Indonesian island off the southern coast of

It would be my first time in Spain. My flight to Madrid took a grueling 13 hours. 13 hours. In coach. For a bit of solace, my mom paid an extra 90 euros (for each of us) for what KLM calls a “comfort zone”. It did have significantly more legroom than regular coach, and did give us more room to move around.During the flight, we were fed continuously by the towering Scandinavian cabin crew,

One week to go till my trip to Europe! It will be my second time. My first was in July 2009 with three of my cousins. This time I’ll be with my mom, aunt, uncle and other “seasoned” travelers I created a list of important stuff to bring with me, most of which are for the purpose of fighting the extreme cold weather and its hazardous effects on my skin.1. Thermals – I already have three gray

Batu Ferringhi
These events occurred on the same day as my earlier post, Pining for Penang. Just written on a different one (or year for that matter)
After parasailing, we jumped into the lagoon pools to do a little swimming. We had learned earlier that the night market starts at 6:30 in evening, giving us ample time to lounge around the pool. I forgot to mention that in one of the pools,
