Mount Mauyog: A Memorable Trek Despite The Misses And Setbacks
The internet, in spite of its groundbreaking solutions, sometimes just doesn’t have the right answers to some of our questions. Although there’s a wealth of tips and advice online, there are times when the tips and run-downs shared to us are a little outdated and puzzling. Even when you are searching info on sought-after spots, you’ll find dissimilar answers and vague explanations. Just recently, I learned this lesson the hard way, in the midst of our trek to one of Cebu’s most beloved peaks – Mount Mauyog.

Tagaytay Hill In Toledo: One of Cebu’s Most Stunning Hidden Gems
Need a break from the non-stop whirlwind and frenzy in Cebu city? I suggest that you pay a visit to Tagaytay Hill, or also known as Old Bucao, in Barangay General Climaco, Toledo City, Cebu.

Sumilon Island: An Affordable DIY Trip To Cebu’s Gorgeous Sandbar
Sumilon Island has been on my travel wish-list ever since wanderlust woke up a couple of years ago. With its clear azure waters and pristine white sands, Sumilon Island’s sandbar is by far a photogenic and mesmerizing tropical idyll that lures all types of travelers. But, the prices for the day tour (PHP 1,500 to 2,000 per person) from Bluewater Sumilon Island Resort were a bit steep for my taste. And while there’s the boat rentals available, I didn’t have a team or group whom I can split the costs with for this option (I don’t like the joiners alternative too). Thankfully, I now have a bunch of enthusiastic travel…
