Well here we are with only four days left.... We are currently in Cebu City in the Philippines.. but this isn't going to be a long post just yet. Just a short one with some of our culinary adventures and weird things that we've encountered. In a few days I'll post a looonnnnnnnnnng and final post to tell everyone about the last let of the trip! Here we go.. lets start off with just some odd observations I've made: Toilets: Toilet seats in India and Nepal were ALWAYS broken, so in the off chance that you're in a place (your hotel that you know is cleaned daily) where you can actually sit down, you nearly fall into the toilet every time. On the contrary, toilet seats in the Philippines have proven to be nonexistent most of ... read more

Hi all. Currently in Cebu City in the Visayas with sadly only a few more days left in the Philippines. Currently staying at a friends flat who I met in Palawan which is handy. So the last time i wrote i had one more nite left in Puerto Princesa, had a tower of power and a few Red horses(Philippino stella) was a good nite.

So my hint would be ask the guards to point you in the direction of the metered cabs. So arrived in Cebu ... read more

Saturday afternoon we went and shot at a place called Mactan Oasis approximately ten minutes from Bigfoot for a couple more scenes. Kiss came and met up with us as well since she was my ‘supporting actress’ in this scene. We shot at this abandon building that I couldn’t quite figure out if it was still under construction, being reconstructed or taken down. It had this distinct feeling to it since it was so industrial yet sits along side a main road in this gated apartment complex. It’s a fabulous place to shoot for something raw and edgy. I started getting ideas in my head for a shoot, but quickly went back to my primary reason of being there, and that’s to play my character, Bailey. It was a great location as we were the ... read more

I, together with my wife and two kids just came home here in Cebu from our 1 week vacation in Silay City Negros Occidental. Me and my family spend our Christmas in my birthplace every Christmas. It was a very tiring travel because we traveling sitting in the Ceres Bus for almost 7 hours. It is always a happy vacation because I always see my parents, brothers and sisters every Christmas. This is also the time that we get together and reunite. Our trip is always exciting because we travel at night. It is always a night trip that we choose because we arrive there in the morning and vice versa. My birthpalce Silay City in Negros Occidental is a good place to spend Christmas Vacation. I included some pictures when we roam arround the Plaza ... read more
