    Lataban Hills: Liloan, Cebu’s Instagrammable Chocolate Hills

    I’m an unstoppable freight train, whenever my adventurous spirit awakens. Once I set my sights on a destination or attraction, I rarely take off my eyes on the prize. With a can-do drive and an insatiable sense of wanderlust, I step on the gas, and just do whatever it takes to get to the place that I want to go.  Even in remote and relatively unknown places like Lataban Hills, I always find ways to set foot on my next target. But, as of late, I’ve been a little off with the budget and time estimations in my trips. This year, my life has been, so far, an endless parade…

    Casino Peak: One Of The Most Photogenic Mountains In Cebu

    The last couple of weeks have been, for me, a godsend and an absolute beach blast. From the awe-inspiring sardines run in Moalboal to Carnaza’s untouched beach, it’s been, so far, a fantastic summer with a healthy dose of Vitamin Sea. Yet, somehow, I felt that I was out of my element, in the midst of joys, the sea breeze and crashing waves. As it turned out, all I needed was a hike to a scenic peak in Cebu. And, after scouring the web, I found the ultimate inspiration and solution to my thirst for hiking adventures – Casino Peak (Ka Sino Peak), Lugsangan, Dalaguete, Cebu. Sounds familiar? Casino Peak…

    Carnaza Island: A Day Trip In Daanbantayan’s Island Paradise

    “Idyllic” is, for me, a cliché and an overused adjective in the realm of travel writing.  From bloggers to enthusiastic travel advisers, there are an awful lot of people nowadays who are vaguely and unsuitably using this word to describe a place they are visiting. As a matter of fact, I’ve seen some folks label Boracay’s party-laden beach as idyllic. But on the flip side, there are still some places on earth that truly epitomize and exude the “idyllic” feel of a tropical paradise. And one of them is Daanbantayan’s remote and gorgeous gem – Carnaza Island. Carnaza Island was kind of a last minute choice for our family escapade,…

    Pescador Island and Sardines Run: Cebu’s Underwater Spectacles

    Team Bang, since its inception, has been setting its sights on Pescador Island and the dazzling sardines run. With its vibrant underwater world and gorgeous waters, Moalboal’s treasures have been, for months, luring us and teasing our wanderlust. And thankfully after almost a year of dreaming and yearning, we’ve finally experienced this underwater escapade in our recent round South trip in Cebu. To make things even better, we took a dip into a refreshing and ice-cold cascade in Ginatilan – Inambakan Falls. Truth be told, I wasn’t as psyched as everyone else in Team Bang, leading to our island hopping tour to Pescador Island.  Don’t get me wrong – I…
