Milan - Vittorio Emmanuele mallIn Milan, Mijo and I saw Da Vinci's Last Supper and we were in awe. For me, it is one of the must-see masterpieces.

Life is a Beach - Back in Oahu

Waikiki Beach - SunsetAloha! It has been years since I first traveled to the Hawaiian island of Oahu. Twelve years to be exact. 

So when Mijo suggested we go to Hawaii to get away from the cold winter weather, I said yes right away. Life is a beach in Oahu!

My first time Cruising - Carnival Inspiration

Carnival Inspiration - Food Chocolate SquaresI had second thoughts about going on a cruise. Even though most people I know who has been on a cruise all gave raving reviews, somehow, I was still not convinced. I had to go on cruise myself to check it out with an open mind.  

In a nutshell, the story went well because I enjoyed the cruise and I was absolutely relaxed.

Back in Mexico - My travels to Guadalajara and the town of Tequila

Guadalajara - Plaza de ArmasI have been told many times that Guadalajara is the most Mexican of all Mexican cities. Of course, I didn't fully comprehend that statement until I came to Guadalajara.

The city is very pretty, deeply rooted in culture, and the town of Tequila is nearby. For this Filipino guy, it is a complete package!

Life is a Beach - Back in Boracay

Boracay - Looking northWe needed to take care of a personal business in Manila so we decided to spend a little over two weeks in the Philippines. While there, the whole family went to Boracay for a short island getaway.

Though the island has changed so much from the last time I visited, the white and powdery sands still remain unchanged.
