WOW Philippines 2024: Moalboal (Cebu Again)




Cebu, I’m back—back for you. I’ve missed you, and I hope you’ve missed me too. Welcome me again as I begin to explore you even deeper.

Let me start by saying this: this trip happened almost three years ago, at a time when life felt unbearably heavy. After everything I went through, I needed an escape—a moment to breathe. And this journey became exactly that. It was my oasis in the middle of a desert, a quiet refuge when everything else felt chaotic. In many ways, it felt like something heaven-sent—an answered prayer that gently helped soothe and steady my heart.


What about you—how do you cope when life takes an unexpected turn? How do you rise after everything seems to fall apart? And when the unforeseen happens, when you feel completely unprepared, how do you begin again?


Have you ever come across the idea of grounding, or “earthing”? I started noticing it through videos online, and from what I understand, it’s essentially about reconnecting with the earth—taking off your shoes, feeling the grass beneath your feet, and immersing yourself in nature. Many say it can do wonders, especially for those dealing with stress, mental strain, or the constant pressure of city life. It’s believed to restore a sense of balance, as if the earth itself offers a quiet, steady energy. Maybe that’s why I’m always drawn to travel—to beaches, waterfalls, and open landscapes—seeking refuge from the concrete jungle whenever life begins to feel overwhelming.

It’s cold outside—and even colder in my room right now—and I’m absolutely loving it! How are you, people of Earth? It’s been over a week since my short trip to our neighboring country, Taiwan . I went there for leisure and to create new content, and I can confidently say: I’m definitely going back. Welcome to Balabac , Palawan ! True Paradise! As a first-timer, I completely fell in love with it. Everything just made sense—the vibe, the people, the place. But what truly impressed me was how advanced and efficient everything is. The technology there is on another level—from easy cashless payments to smart systems that make everyday life feel so seamless and convenient. And don’t even get me started on the transportation. The trains, especially the Taipei Metro , were incredibly clean, fast, and always on time. It was so easy to navigate, even for a visitor like me. Moving from one place to another felt effortless, which made exploring so much more fun and stress-f...

WOW Philippines 2024: Iloilo & Guimaras

Welcome to Iloilo, my Mom’s beloved hometown! It’s incredibly hot and humid today—dry season has definitely arrived again here in the Philippines . Thankfully, I’ll be working from home for the next three weeks, which gives me the perfect opportunity to start another blog. But before I get into that, it’s hard to ignore the negative things happening around us. The ongoing tensions in the Middle East are affecting everyone—fuel prices are rising, transport strikes are happening here and there, and inflation continues to weigh heavily on people. You can feel the growing anxiety everywhere. I just hope this all comes to an end soon, as economies around the world continue to struggle. Stairway to Heaven Now, let’s talk about childhood memories. Which moments from your childhood have you found yourself wishing you could experience again?
