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.

Pescador Island and Sardines Run: Cebu’s Underwater Spectacles

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…

Mount Tagaytay: A Picture-Perfect Peak With Awe-Inspiring Panoramas
It’s official – I’m madly and deeply in love with Barangay General Climaco. For the past couple of months, this remote barangay in Toledo city has been sweeping me off my feet with its eccentricities, unique beauty, mystical feel, and charms. And just when I thought I’ve seen the best of it, the place unveiled yet another natural wonder that took my breath away – Mount Tagaytay. Although I’ve seen a bunch of pictures of this photogenic mountain, it was in awe, when I saw Mount Tagaytay with my own eyes. Our visit to Mount Tagaytay was, for me, the ultimate way to end a day full of giggles, fun…
