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.

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,

Somewhere in our itinerary in March is a place called Bilbao, a city in Spain. Is this where all those delicious chorizos come from? Well, with any luck, I’m making it my goal to go see the Guggenheim museum, pictured above.

At the last minute, Tiger Airways had bungled up our flights hence we were forced to spend an extra day in Singapore. That also meant one day minus our stay in Penang, which is a shame because we realized there was so much to see with only little time in our hands.Lobby of Trader’s HotelOur hotel, the Shangri-la Trader’s Hotel, is in beautiful George Town, a city teeming with historical sights

Universal Studios is the newest addition to the many must-see places in Singapore. It opened March of this year but has garnered more than a million visitors in a short span of time. The more well-known park in Singapore, Sentosa, actually houses Universal Studios. I have been to HongKong Disneyland and found it too bland and childish for my taste. There wasn’t much stuff for adults. The one

Tired, groggy and excited.That’s how I feel on my first day here in Singapore. I arrived hours ahead of my friends who are just about to fly in from Manila (it’s 11:18PM). I’m now blogging from my fantastic room here at Hotel Rendezvous. Unknowingly, I booked for a “Plaza Club Room”, which is some sort of executive suite. Me, an exective? Who knew? Like a normal person, I went straight to
