travel writing

i think this is everyone's dream - to travel the world and experience new cultures and learn something new about yourself and the world during the adventure. i haven't had the privilege of traveling outside of the country with my limited budget and all. so i decided to at least see the sights and sounds of my homeland - the Philippines. with more than 7,101 islands, i think i have my work cut out for me.

i'm fairly new to this genre. i've seen a few blogs like ourawesomeplanet.com and wanderlass.com who's been doing this for quite some time. they have a strong following because of their fluid storytelling, unbiased first person POV and a wonderful appetite for life. i wish to do the same.

i hope that you'll read about my next adventure in the papers soon. nevertheless, plan B (this blog) is always in my back pocket if things don't go according to plan.

tara na, pilipinas!

book hungry


these are but a few of the books i've seen in bookstores that were too expensive for me to buy at that time. i'm saving up for them as part of my christmas list. :)
