Team Bang: A Diversely Beautiful Accidental Bunch Of Lifeaholics
Never in my wildest dreams did I imagine that one day I would be a part of a group of adventurists – Team Bang. Even though I’m a bona fide introvert, it’s been, thus far, a thrilling ride, hitting the road with a bunch of like-minded people. Together with my clique, I’ve uncovered some of the most mesmerizing unheralded sights in the province, diving into the unknown and unexplored from North to South. And with a looming 1-year anniversary, I thought it would be a fitting tribute to write something about Team Bang. Some say that I’m the architect of Team Bang – the person who planned and built this…

Eagle’s Cave: A Mystical Labyrinth Full Of Thrills And Spills
Last year, I scratched out Dalaguete from my list of top local destinations in Cebu. With tons of Instagram junkies flaunting their OOTDs on the town’s well-known summit, I thought Dalaguete was becoming a little worn out and a cliché. Heck, even Daniel Padilla and Kathryn Bernardo followed the trend, by hitting O’peak (that’s how mainstream Dalaguete has become).

But for a wide-eyed traveler like me, there’s nothing – even a bad weather – that can stop us from seeing the beauty of the planet. And when you pair that enthusiastic wanderer with a bunch of like-minded open-minded people, you’ve got a fine recipe for adventure. That’s what exactly happened to me last weekend, as we explored Dalaguete Cebu’s lesser known sites – Katampuko Peak and Eagle’s Cave – after a…

Campo 7 Man-Made Forest: A Mysterious Eye-opening Experience In Cebu
For decades, science has taken huge leaps and breakthroughs to debunk the most contagious falsehoods. From the ethereal Northern lights to urban legends, modern science has been quite a myth buster, unveiling the truths of several strange phenomena and common misconceptions. Yet, somehow, there are still some strange forces and things like the spirits that defy logic as well as the principles of science. And in my recent weekend escape with Team Bang, I had a not-so close encounter with the strange dili ingun nato (spiritual beings), as we explored Campo 7 man-made forest, Minglanilla, Cebu. I’m not much of a believer, when it comes to superstitions. I’m a man…
