One of the things I’m most particular about is preparing my own food. To say that I find joy in doing it is an understatement. Most of the time, I (only) crave foods if prepared by me because there’s certainty that they’re prepared well. Let me put it this way: Sometimes, I refuse to eat…

Ilocos Sur’s Tourism Pride: “Multiple Tourist Spots for Free in Vigan City”
Working overseas has been teaching me a lot of life lessons. Building friendships that aren’t restricted by distance and time is one of the best ones so far. View this post on Instagram It’s refreshing to see that kid’s most famous fast-food restaurant with a flair or should I say under the umbrella of a…
Picture-Perfect Moment: Coffee Project’s Initiative
After a rigorous session at Pro Shape Gym, my body kind of craved a movie and a tonic drink. I dragged the commanding-in-chief to come with me to the nearest mall in the area, “Vista Mall”. On our way to the entrance, we passed by this cafe called “Coffee Shop”. We were immediately captivated by…

Riyadh City and the whole of KSA flaunting faces and ambitious plans on tourism
Ten months ago, I published a blog post titled “Giving You A Million Reasons To Love And Travel To Riyadh”. The post highlighted some of the holy city’s unique, modern, and ordinary areas adorned with visual spectacles. That was a collection of photos and snapshots that I captured in the last few years or until…
I Got Shot But I Am Alive!
One of the things in my bucket list is to try paintball because I was really inspired by a good friend’s, Paul Basco, interest in said sport. It is something that I didn’t really plan to do anytime soon though. Last January 16, I and an equally good friend, Jake, received an invite from Ameen, a Saudi…

When it comes to bakeries in Riyadh, there is only one that comes to mind. That is, the Wooden Bakery on Kurais Road in Salah Al Deen Street. This bakery has four specialties: Arabic and European breads, French pastries, Arabic sweets, and, of course, the excellent coffee. But did you know that there is an interesting scuttlebutt…

After the upbeat endings of our watching-the-sunrise and swimming experience at Half Moon Bay, we proceeded directly to the city proper to check in at one of the most economical hotel suites in Khobar and to have lunch at the most patronized Filipino restaurant nearby. Thereafter, we headed to our second destination: Cobra Amusement Park….
Weekly Photo Challenge: Eerie
This is one of the pictures I got from visiting the Ushaiger Heritage Village that showcases mud-built, interconnected houses in Shagra last January this year. I got separated from the group I was with when the wandering feet in me took over. I wanted to explore the place at my pace, at my view. Until…
Weekly Photo Challenge: Infinite
On my way to Al Taj International School for a dental check-up on my birthday last 27 September 2013, I passed by the newly constructed tunnel along King Abdul Aziz Road in Riyadh City. My optical organs were ensnared by the lights on the roof crown of the tunnel. I just feasted on their enticing…
Weekly Photo Challenge: From Patterns to Lines
Last Tuesday, September 17, I did sauntering at one of the top shopping centers, Hayat Mall, of the capital city. Never knew the shapes, lines, cool texture, and patterns that my eyes and camera caught while I was resting and quenching my thirst in the kaleidoscopic patio of the mall will be utilized this early for…
