Meet the Nomads – Jeremy Albelda of The World or Bust

The World or Bust is an enjoyable blog to read and get helpful tips about various places the Jeremy has been to. This is one of the newest blogs that I have been reading lately since it features a lot of travelogues and helpful posts about places that I’ve never been to yet. Jeremy also [...]

Flipnomad’s Photo Thursday – Fugu for Dinner?

I was walking along the shores of Daanbantayan in Cebu (Philippines) when I chanced upon two kids catching what seemed to me like Fugu or Puffer Fish. They told me that it taste good though but I wasn’t really sure if it is safe to eat. I’m not that familiar with the varieties of Puffer [...]

Island Hopping in Sihanoukville Cambodia

Aside from going to the beaches of Sihanoukville on the coast of mainland Cambodia, you can also take a tour to the outlying islands. The cheapest tour that I saw (and booked) cost $15 and it includes the free pick up from your hostel, boat fee, breakfast, lunch, drinks and use of snorkelling gears. We [...]

Meet the Nomads – Barbara of The Dropout Diaries

I have always been fond of reading blogs not just about adventures of people in different countries but as well as blogs about the changes and transformations that an indivudal (or a family) goes thru. I like reading about and learning from them as they redesign their lives according to what they want. And one [...]

Flipnomad’s Photo Thursday – Temple Signage

I was walking to random temples in Chiang Mai, near Tha Pae Gate when I stumbled upon this signage. I stopped for awhile and read every sign I saw in this temple. I couldn’t help myself but feel happy that for some sheer coincidence, I was reminded of some important things that I should value [...]

Family-friendly Fun in Majorca

A visit to the bustling Balearics need not mean around the clock parties and lazy days spent on the beach. Majorca, the largest of the famous Spanish Mediterranean islands, which boast a 24/7 party lifestyle and club scene, actually far exceeds its narrow reputation. Although the island is a well-known tourist hotspot, there is much [...]

Which currency to use in Cambodia? US Dollar or Riel

US Dollar and Cambodian Riel are both accepted in all establishments in Cambodia. When I first travelled here, I never really bothered to change my money to Riel since I know that $ is widely accepted in Siem Reap and Phnom Penh. But now that I have been back here (and stayed) for almost three [...]

Meet the Nomads – Daniel Nahabedian of Canvas of Light

One of the joys in browsing at various travel blogs is to look at gorgeous pictures taken by talented photographers and one of the recent blogs that I’ve discovered is Canvas Of Light created by Daniel Nahabedian. Daniel started photography when he got his first DSLR last 2007 and it helped him develop his passion [...]

Flipnomad’s Photo Thursday – Grand Palace Murals

  One of the best things inside the Grand Palace of Bangkok is the long rectangular hall rich with murals about scenes in Hindu and Buddhist Mythology (particularly the one shown in the photo above). I couldn’t help but get lost in my imagination as I marvel at every scene depicted in the murals. It’s [...]

The Beaches of Sihanoukville

I’m not really that familiar with the coastal areas of Cambodia and I’ve never been to any beaches here until I got to Sihanoukville. And I never thought that I was in for a nice surprise. There really are nice beaches in Sihanoukville. Here are some of the beaches that I went to in Sihanoukville: [...]
