I am so blessed to have a work that I love and at the same time enables me to travel and explore the beauty of my country the Philippines. This time again, I was tasked to give support to the Architect-in-Charge of Northern Mindanao-Cagayan De Oro. We will be giving technical assistance and workshp to the Local Government Unit's Architects and Engineers. Of course, after the work, we always reward ourselves with not only good food but also, something that will enrich our experience and memories in that particular city. Cagayan De Oro is famous for the White Water Rafting, being dubbed as the Adventure Capital of the Philippines. We were a group of 6 good thrill-seekers, Beginners category, who are willing to have that exhilirating experience as we cross the raging Cagayan River. We were ... read more

Thanks to my work and it brought me to the beautiful Region down south--- the Mindanao. This time after my official business, I was accompanied by my colleagues of DOH Region CARAGA to visit the famous Enchanting River in Hinatuan, Surigao del Sur. It is 8 hours travel from Davao City or if from Surigao del Sur, around 45 to 1 hour land travel. The Chief of one hospital there that I provided technical assistance promised to tour me around once I visited their place. We arrived at the Hinatuan District Hospital around 730 in the morning. We were served with a sumptuous seafood meal for our breakfast and after getting around the facility it’s time to go to this River that everyone is talking about. The sun is up and just right for our trip. ... read more

It was my 2nd time to visit Malaysia in 2009, and finally my destination is in Kuala Lumpur. Together with my architect friends, we have visited KLLC, Chinatown, and the famous Genting Highlands. Unfortunately, cable car is down. We did not get a ride at the Theme Park. Just sightseeing and photoshoot occupied our time. We went back to the City after two hours, then just went to visit the malls at the basement level of our Hotel. But before heading off to Bangkok, we were able to drop by at the Putrajaya Government Complex. It is the Federal Administrative Center of Malaysia and was named after the first Prime Minister Tunku Abdul Rahman Putra. From the wikipedia.org, it is listed as the Third Federal Territory after Kuala Lumpur and Labuan. Putrajaya is the brainchild of ... read more

As always, travel to Davao City is something i really look forward to. My first visit to Davao City was in October 1995 when i attended the National Conference for Architects, and the rest was history. I can't count anymore how many times i have visited Davao and each visit is always a new experience. Last year, i visited Davao City in October for 8 days due to training and again UAP-NCA. One thing, i can't forget was my Digos experience with my colleagues, shina, hazel, franie and bong. No activity for that day in our NCA that we decided to go zip-lining. We travelled for 3 hours to Digos by a rented cab then from Digos we have to take a motorcycle to reach the foot of the mountain(another 20 KM) where we will ride ... read more
