BOHOL BEE FARM
I remember my previous experience in Bohol Bee Farm to be a bit strange because I wasn’t able to see any bees. I later learned that the colony moved to a different location when Bohol was hit by a major storm. What I also remember was that I enjoyed their food a lot! Especially their ice cream. I’m back again in Bohol, this time with my family, and the place is as lively as can be. Passing by the reception area and the shop, we walk down a quaint pathway towards the restaurant, a very buzzzy restaurant. Service staff would zip by bringing dishes or clearing tables, the chattering of…

You Never Forget a Lingayen Sunset
When the world was locked down and you need masks to go out, we find ways to escape.Escape where?Somewhere…Where you can take off your masks and enjoy the breeze.Where the crashing of the waves causes you to sigh in comfort.Where you can pass wind and nobody will know.Where one minute you’re on earth, the next you’re on a martian view.Where the sky gradients from blue to orange, lavender to purple, so beautifully it overwhelms you.Where you forget the problems of life and thank God you’re alive.I guess that’s what a sunset in Lingayen does. Last year when the road restrictions eased up enough, we started looking for places to explore…

Eye on the Streets – Hong Kong
There’s always this lingering decision I have to make whenever I travel. On one hand I’d like to enjoy the place and absorb as much with just my eyes (and stomach) and enjoy the people who I’m traveling with, on the other I’d really love to explore and observe the place with my camera on hand. But as early as arriving in the airport, something tells me it’s going to be a “camera on hand” trip, Hong Kong is a place meant to be photographed. The city vibrates with energy that comes at you in every direction. Everyone and everything seems to be moving, in a hurry. I take note…

Nic and Blanche – Love Goes Far
Ilocos Norte has always beheld me with it’s mix of raw nature and beautiful man made structures, so when Nic brought up the idea of traveling up north for their prenup, I was excited for the possibilities. In the span of three days we covered locations from the UNESCO world heritage site of Vigan, to the Sand Dunes of Paoay, and all the way up to the Windmills of Bangui. One of the major difficulty we had were the winds up on our northern locations since we were at the edge of a brewing storm, it was moderately uncomfortable to keep a straight face but they were more than up…

Living the Lime Life – Lime Hotel Boracay
It’s nice to have an assignment that forces me to switch modes from fast paced shooting to something that allows me to take things slow, so slow it felt like a vacation all through out. Such was the experience when I stayed in Lime Hotel in Boracay. Their welcome drink matches their color scheme. Found along Boracay Main Road near Regency Alley in Station 2, the place has a fairly modern but relaxing vibe. The rooms are spacious, most of them with balconies that reward you with sweeping views. The Sky Lounge unintentionally serves as an ante to the fabulous view you’ll see when you step out into the pool…

Camera on Hand – Baguio, A Home for the Heart
Baguio has always been an escape for me, a place where I can forget about the seriousness of life and take things slow… really slow. What I enjoy most of the time is how I become more conscious of each moment during the days I spend there. Here are snapshots of a 2 day trip with my wife and a friend, either when were together or in times when I walk alone… I was surprised that the place were staying in is right beside Cafe by the Ruins, a huge serving of Champorado and Tuyo in this cool weather makes for a good first meal in this recent trip. We’ve…
