What Did I Pack

I started this trip a week ago knowing the first two destination in the next two months and don’t have a clue on where I will end up after that. It’s easy to pack stuff that you know you can use depending on location (e.g. winter clothes if you’re going to cold places) but a [...]

A Lesson from Toy Boats

I was strolling along the beach when I chanced upon kids playing on the stagnant seawater. I noticed that they were playing with different improvised boats. The most impressive one was the wooden boat made by the kid’s father. They even installed a battery-operated motor to help propel the boat. I also noticed two other [...]

Malta on a Budget

I’ll be honest from the start; I’m no fan of beach holidays. The idea of roasting away on a beach heaving with sunburnt tourists, plastic loungers and blow-up beach-balls just doesn’t float my boat. I’d much rather be strapping on my hiking boots and getting lost in the wilderness, or exploring the winding, cobbled backstreets [...]

Meet the Nomads: James Clark

James’s blog would probably be one of the longest running travel blogs that I know of. He’s been blogging since May 2005. A travel web developer by profession, James is also a good photographer which you would notice in his blog which is full of descriptive pictures. His photos will definitely take you to various [...]

Three Egyptian Landmarks I Want to See

One of my long time dreams is to visit Egypt. The rich history of ancient Egypt never ceases to amaze me. Maybe because I love history and I love great adventures. Maybe when I could save money to travel that far, I’ll enter Africa through Egypt. Here are the three Egyptian landmarks that I want [...]

Sold Out… Ready, Set, Go

A year ago, I rented this apartment so I could be near my office in Makati. I hate commuting, it eats a lot of time and money. After computing the cost of commuting from my home to Makati, I’ve decided that it would be much cheaper to rent an apartment instead in the same city [...]

Meet the Nomads: Ayngelina Brogan

Ayngelina’s blog posts are fun and witty. She documents her solo travels across South America and every article makes me feel as if I was travelling with her too. That’s how engaging her blog (and writing style) is. What struck me the most is, the honesty in every post that she writes. My personal favorite [...]

Expecting the Unexpected

I got my Chinese Visa yesterday (finally) after two hours of waiting at the Chinese Embassy. Took a glance on it and checked if all the information is correct. I checked if there’s any misspellings or whatnot so I could have made it corrected while I’m inside the embassy. There seems to be none so [...]

Meet the Nomads: Barbara Weibel

Barbara’s story is indeed fascinating. She stayed in the corporate world for a long time until she decided to call it quits to travel the world. She reminds me of a saying “never give up”, because most people that I know that are on the same age bracket as Barbara have just accepted their” fate” [...]

Three Kinds of People You Need to Know

Have you ever dared to go for something unimaginable for you, something that seems to be far beyond your reach? Have you ever felt fire in your guts about a certain idea that you think you can do? Did you ever try to execute those plans? We all dream of something big for ourselves. It [...]
