Feel a Connection with the Ocean through Fathom Bracelets’ ANTILLA Thimble Charm Bracelet Paracord Rope
Long before I fell in love with the mountains, there was the ocean and/or sea that first gave me the kind of comfort I wanted. That was the very moment I learned about the essence of solitude, when I first swam at the beach of Buguey in Cagayan back in high school. Since then, being…

Chronicles Of A Three-Day Trip To Dubai: Disrobing Mall of the Emirates, Dubai Mall, Souk Al Bahar, and Burj Khalifa Complex
It was summer at its peak two years ago. Dubai was waiting for us on our last day of exploring the city. One good thing about summer is you will never have to worry about the weather but its scorching heat. It is just the way to go and there is absolutely no lack of…
What My Hometown Taught Me After A Decade Of Distance From It
It was one of those childhood Sundays when my grandmother would ask my father to wake me up for the mass. A few minutes later there I was trying to stand straight while wiping my gound and groping my way to the bathroom, detached from the house, in a foggy morning. Struggle! But the thought…
