Crash Landing in Oslob: The Story of My First Paragliding Experience

I never thought that my first paragliding experience would actually lead to an actual ‘crash’. Not to worry – there was no harm done. No injuries at all. It was purely an accident which thankfully, only threw me and my pilot in shock for a few seconds. But let’s get into that part later. A bit of backstory Way back …

What It’s Like to Fly in a Gyrocopter

Pinipisakan Falls: More Than Just a Beautiful Waterfalls

“Tikang gud kamu ha Pinipisakan Falls, dai? Mayda man mga NPA heto ngadto!” (Are you sure you went to Pinipisakan Falls? There are NPA’s (communists) up there!) Those were the words uttered by the lady at the convenience store near the highway. I couldn’t blame her.  Almost every remote area in the Philippines just happens to be the home of this communist …

The second is to explore the Hang Son Doong Cave in Vietnam which is the largest cave in the world. But achieving these two goals would probably take me a long time. Both are too expensive and …

Hiking Osmena Peak for the first time

Lesson learned when I hiked Osmena Peak for the first time: Don’t do it on an empty stomach. I have never climbed a mountain before this. So I didn’t know what to expect. I made the mistake of not doing prior research as well. Researching before doing anything is very important to avoid any accidents or whatnots. These are things …

My El Nido Escapade

Serene surroundings, clear waters, limestone formations, secret beaches, and lagoons… it’s all that I hear from travelers who had been in El Nido, Palawan. So when I got the chance, I decided to go on a vacation to this paradise. I was a little disheartened when I arrived though because of the bad weather. A typhoon traveled with us and …

Puerto Princesa Subterranean River National Park Adventure

I’d say this was really the heart of our trip to Puerto Princesa. After all, the Puerto Princesa Subterranean River National Park is one of the New 7 Wonders of Nature. And it’s not every day you can go to a place that was inscribed by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site, right? The travel to Sabang from Puerto Princesa …

ABS-CBN Studio Tour

Since most of my school mates were Mass Communication students, the ABS-CBN Studio Tour was like the ‘main event’ of our 5-day Luzon Tour. By the way, I’m the only English Literature student among 50 MassCom and LiaCom students. A few months before the trip, we had a meeting at school and our professors told us that we will be …
