Argao Adventure: Exploring The Mystical Balay Sa Agta and Bugasok Falls
The Philippine Mythology is, to me, a cultural treasure and a patchwork of inspiring tales. From the inhumanly strong Bernardo Caprio to the mountain goddess and her golden galleon in Argao, I’ve heard and read plenty of intriguing Philippine mythical stories that made my childhood pretty awesome. Not to mention, these tales kept me at bay, whenever I had an urge to wander at night around the neighborhood.

Even though the Philippine Mythology is extremely fascinating, today’s youngsters just don’t know a lot about it, and would prefer to recount…

Cebu Westown Lagoon: An Oasis In the Midst Of A Bustling Metropolis
Cebu Westown Lagoon is a refreshing urban oasis that has been, for the last couple of years, one of my family’s go-to spots. As a matter of fact, Cebu Westown Lagoon is usually the first thing that pops into our mind, whenever we think of a place within Cebu to cool off from the scorching tropical heat. Although quite frankly it has a few drawbacks, this man-made lagoon has enamored us with its cool pools, eye-catching artificial rocks, Aztec-inspired theme, and spine-tingling slides. And besides, it’s one of very few pool resorts that can be easily accessed in metro Cebu. Cebu Westown Lagoon has an excellent and convenient location Cebu…
