Taal Mountain View and Lake Resort

Hello there! It's been ages since I last wrote my blog here. I've been preoccupied with a lot of things these past few months thus I can't travel as often as I want. I just purchased a new camera that is why I demanded Paulo that we need to travel so we could use my GoPro and test it on water (just my alibi). Since he doesn't have enough leaves as he is just new on his company, we just decided to trek on his Lolo's resort in Batangas. We called it HINGAL Beach, coined from the word "hingal" itself. Because you need to trek for an hour and traverse the unpaved road to get into the lake. This is located in Sta, Teresita Batangas. His grandparents own the 3 hectares of land area. This is currently for sale as well. hihi! His house is just near the road going to the starting point of the trek so we woke up at 545AM and started our lil adventure. I went here 2years ago but, we borrowed the vintage jeepney of Paulo's lolo so I don't ...

2 weeks before the Panagbenga, we have decided to went north again to experience the coldest weather Philippines could ever have! The past few days, wala nang laman ang balita kung di kung gaano kalamig ang  whether dito sa Manila or ibang part ng bansa thus we have immediately packed our things and looked for a hotel to stay in in Baguio. Unfortunately, we were pressed out of time and I cant find any cheap hotels kasi fully booked na lahat. Rami atang tao ang umakyat din sa Baguio! hahahah! I was able to book a 1 night (Sunday) on Hotel Veniz and good thing my bf' former officemate's sister still has a free room in Trinidad ready to be rented for visitors. hay... thank you Lord! We were welcomed with 12 degrees temp, It was freaking cold! No, it's super freaking cold!! Below are the photos of Hotel Veniz, we rented the Standard Queen size bedroom since that's the only one available. No choice kumbaga.. 1700 with free buffet breakfast for two. (Note: I didnt en...

Sunset by Aninuhan

Less crowded, less noise, more scenic spot and more things to do: The other side of Oriental Mindoro or literally on the other side of Puerto Galera. This place is just few stones away from Tamaraw beach resort, the resort that is so obvious whenever we go to Puerto Galera. From Batangas pier, just inform the shipping lines that you will be off to Sunset Aninuhan and they will dropping you off there, straight on the beach front. We were greeted by the nice crews at the hotel and with the hamocks! My eyes were glued here and I told myself, "I-AAVAIL KO TALAGA YAN, IPAPASOK KO LANG SA LOOB NG HOTEL UN MGA GAMIT KO!!" Sarap magsyiesta! Kahit di na ako magswimming, kahit higa lang ako dito with the view of the beach, okay na ako.. :) For couple  Their open restaurant - take note medyo pricey un mga food dito. hihi! This is the spot where we took our breakfast. The sand is not that fine compare to the sand of Wh...
