New Normal Dining: Let’s Eat Samgyeopsal in Daega Unlimited Korean Restaurant

New Normal Dining: Let’s Eat Samgyeopsal in Daega Unlimited Korean Restaurant

 

The least that I can do to save humanity is to stay at home in this COVID 19 pandemic. And the least that I can do to help the nation’s economy is to go outside and let my money gradually disappear from my pocket, haha! Just kidding… Seriously though, since one is now allowed to go out if he can present his passes(quarantine pass, travel pass, etc) and observe safety protocols like wearing face masks and face shields, and disinfecting with alcohol or sanitizer, then I could go.

Life Recently, How Lechon Brigthtened Up My Life, (Yes, Lechon😂)

 

Hello, it’s me, the one who chases potatoes, CHASING POTATOES, haha! I guess I have to reintroduce myself because I was gone for more than six months. I mean I’ve been out of this blogosphere world because of so many tragic happenings around the globe since the beginning of the year 2020. Added to this sad turn of events was my being hospitalized for an operation in the first month of this year, which I will tackle soon on the blog (maybe or maybe not, haha). This pandemic that has disturbed the whole world has paralyzed my creativity, putting contents into a halt. Fear and anxiety dominate my being; thoughts and ideas float in the empty spaces in my mind. (But I’m still thankful to God for sparing my loved ones and me from this horrible virus. Please COVID-19, be gone. (sigh)

HOW I EDIT MY PHOTO

This is How I Edit My Photos For The Gram

 

Sometimes I want to feel fancy, just like most girls. If I set aside my lazy ass and I am in the mood, I like to put make-up on my face, wear cute outfits and take photos of myself. I like to use my time as well by editing those snaps. I think it’s not about being vain but because I want my photos to reflect my creativity and artistry.

Sometimes raw photos are boring and problematic but added with filters and enhancements they channel different emotions and tones.Right? However, I don’t overdo my photos. I want them to look natural, if possible. So, here in my blog I’m showing you how I edit my photos to make them appear as natural as possible.

PLACES IN MASBATE WE VISITED IN LESS THAN 24 HOURS

We almost missed our ride in going to Masbate after a very heavy traffic we experienced in Danao. We arrived at the port almost 12:00 midnight which was also the time of the boat’s departure. That was literally chasing time. Haha!🤣Anyway we cruised on Masbate seas on a very fine weather that somehow gave us a peaceful journey and in the morning we were greeted by a stunning sunrise.

I hope you won’t get confused to see another clip of all the parts of my tent some of which are crumpled for having been used twice. Therefore, I got the chance to share also in this video some reviews about the tent.

Solo Traveling in Calbayog : Two Splendid Waterfalls To Chase in Calbayog

 Two Splendid Waterfalls To Chase in Calbayog

I tried solo traveling once because I wanted to experience freedom of taking risks and of dealing with personally unknown ventures to find out if it is really liberatingly beautiful. I found the answer when I visited Calbayog.

It was not all fun; there were times when I got scared while jaunting but at the end of the day I set aside the negativities encountered along the way and thought of the valuable lessons learned in this experience. That is why Calbayog already has carved an etch in my heart even though I was there two years ago. But it is only now that I felt the desire to write this blog. I have shaken off the lethargy in my being and have stopped my addiction to Mobile Legend, haha 😂. I have to stop or else that would be the death of me, ugh!

This adventure happened on my first solo travel to Calbayog. I visited some of the city’s historic sites which were well-preserved and maintained, explored two majestic waterfalls and experienced the exhilarating and fulfilling zipline adventure which I’m going to tackle here in this blog. Unfortunately my trip went wrong for I misjudged my trike driver. If you’re curious about my solo Calbayog travel, here’s my previous article.

Exploring Calbayog : My First Time to Travel Solo… And What Went Wrong?

 
 
I remember last 2016 I traveled for the first time in Catbalogan in the Island of Samar where I celebrated my extended birthday extremely — extremely in the sense that I spent three days there — exploring, living and sleeping inside the biggest  cave in the Philippines, the Langon Gobingob Cave. Not only that, I also biked around the town, tried canyoning in Bangon Falls and fell down and got dirty in Lobo Cave and a lot more daring and extreme adventures. (Read this blog so that you’ll know how really extreme my adventures were). Even though I traveled alone to Catbalogan, I didn’t think of it as solo travel because it was an organized and well-prepared activity cared of  trexplore.ph with the safe guidance of Sir Joni Bonifacio. That trip ended up as myself being a joiner of some thrilling adventures. Thus I got to know, meet and socialize with different people from different parts of the Philippines who shared the same sentiment of love for adventures as I did.
