New Year, New Plans and Hopefully it’s not yet the End of the World

Time flies so fast. It feels like it was only yesterday when I started planning on being back on the road. And I couldn’t even believe that I’m on my 9th month already travelling around Southeast Asia while teaching myself how to be location independent through online ventures. A year ago, I was clueless on [...]

2011 – A Year of Learning Part II

Here’s the 2nd Part of A Year of Learning. This is a compilation of the realizations and learning of our fellow Nomads interviewed by Flip for the Meet the Nomads section. “That people are the best thing about a place, not the monuments and sights – it really hit us a few years ago when we were [...]

Meet the Nomads – Jerick Parrone

Jerick’s blog shows everyone that you don’t need to quit your job to see the world. Especially if you’re job is something that you really love doing. Jerick aims to set foot on 25 countries before he turns 25 while keeping his job which I find really amazing because he could maintain a balance between [...]

Ubud, Bali – My First Impression

We took a package tour from Yogyakarta (via Mt. Bromo) to Bali to be able to save time since we’re travelling with our friends who were on vacation. We figured that it would be more convenient with them if we didn’t DIY the whole trip. There are lots of travel agencies in Gang I and [...]

How to go to Ubud, Bali from Yogyakarta via Mt. Bromo

There are a variety of ways on how to go to Bali from Yogyakarta. You could commute to Probolinggo and take the ferry to Bali or alternatively you could book a package thru one of the travel agencies in Yogyakarta which I find very convenient. Average cost that I saw was around 230-250,000 Rupiah. Alternatively, [...]

Meet the Nomads – Kara Santos

Travel Up by Kara Santos is one of the newest blogs that I’ve been checking out lately. Kara writes about her various travels in the Philippines and other countries. Kara would probably be one of the most travelled Filipinas that I know, having travelled from Sagada to Sulu. Her blog will definitely take you to [...]

Kota Kinabalu to Yogyakarta – My first time in Indonesia

This is my first time in Indonesia and I didn’t know what to expect when I landed to Jakarta from Kota Kinabalu last October 16. We waited in the airport for approximately eight hours for our flight to Yogyakarta and what we did was stayed in the airport observing everything that’s going on. We landed [...]

How Much Did I Spend in Penang, Genting and Kota Kinabalu

I was in Malaysia, specifically Penang, Genting and Kota Kinabalu for almost a month and the price of accommodation (especially in Kota Kinabalu) is a big jump compare to Thailand, Laos, Vietnam and Cambodia. It was refreshing to see other parts of Malaysia other than Kuala Lumpur. I realized that there’s so much to see [...]

Meet the Nomads – Roy Abraham

Roy is our tribe leader in an online organization. I met him (online) through another Filipino Travel Blogger, Graciel of Pinay on the Move. I’ve been checking out his blog from time to time and reads about his adventures. But what keeps me hooked is his sketches. I find them really nice and entertaining. Roy [...]
