Pospal som si az do 8/30. Rano som sa konecne oholil,pouzil jednorazovu kefku,co mam hadam este z ciny,bohuzial pasta bola vysusena. Konecne som minul aj mydlo co som mal z domu,teraz mozem zacat pouzivat jednorazovky nakradnute z ubytiek. Recepcneho som sa pytal co mi odporuca navstivit. Odporucil mi daku dedinu ale je to zas na dlhsi motopresun a to sa mi nechce. Rozmyslal som ci nepojdem kuknut na jahodove polia v la Trinidade,chodi tam kazdu chvilu jeepney ale nakoniec som sa vybral na pesiu turu k Lourdes Grotto steps. Na ranajky som si dal kura s ryzu. Posedel som si v parku,kukol radnicu a siel pomalicky k svojmu cielu. Tulal som roznymi ulickami. Videl som tu ako domaci ziju. V jednej ulicke lakovali auta,v dalsej zas same jedlo,obchody. Fajn prechadzka. Putnicke miesto su vlastne len schody ... read more

After I got married, I planned to take my wife to Bagiuo for a short vacation. However, due to our work, the trip was postponed. It took almost a year for the planned vacation to transpire. This made possible when I have transferred to a new company wherein employees are given the chance to have a break during Christmas season. We had then more than a week of vacation as the plant shuts down during the yuletide season. Work to start 1stweek of the New Year. When I was with my previous employer, there’s no similar break like this. We only have no works on the day before and during the day of Christmas and New Year itself. Our vacation to Baguio becomes special as I consider this trip part of our celebration of our 1st ... read more

When I started to do blogging almost 3 years ago, many doubted my ability to write and share my personal stories to people, some laughed, some made jokes about it and others were not even impressed at all… I started to write testimonies regarding my travels because it’s what I’m passionate about… The very reason why I write is because I want to share to myself what my life has been through, it’s like talking to myself, sharing experiences with myself, a personal diary of reflection... So that one day, I could go back to my writings and they will remind me of what my life has been about… What it has & how it was lived… As I was continuously writing articles about my life’s experiences, I never noticed or was unaware that I’m already ... read more

Baguio City is known in the Philippines as the focal area where lovely strawberries can be harvested.
