I took this photo when I visited Eden Nature Park which located at the foot of Mount Talomo at Toril District of Davao City in Philippines last March 2009, during my three days holidays in Davao after finishing 4 days climb in Mount Apo.

I posted this same photo last April 2009 from my other blog which focused solely to photos from my country. Right now I am still thinking if I will just continue that blog in other site or will just transferring the site here in WordPress. Let’s see whats gonna happen.

For the meantime, here is the link of the post for the same photo above:

IMG_2603Home (Post#2) : Twin Lagoons, Coron

Coron in Palawan is one of my bucket list to see in my own country. Coron dream materialized last year Aug 2013, when I was scheduled for two weeks holiday back to my country. I thought that my sister and I wont make it to arrive in the island, during my original flight and tour schedule, my country had been hit by a major typhoon, I tried to rearrange the schedule and since I had justification for not able to come in the place due to weather conditions, the schedule has been moved and at last we finally able to visit this wonderful place around Coron. The photo above was one of the lagoon and there is another one behind me when I took this photo, wherein we did a quick swimming as it was high tide that time to pass through a cave like entrance to see its twin lagoon.

I captured this photo last November 2010 when I came back in Singapore for my certification and clearance at work as I went back to my country home for great work opportunity. I was walking along this street  as it is nearby from my previous company/agency office.

I learned that streets in Bugis junction were actual streets before and the area has been integrated with other streets to become shopping center as what we see these days.

Panoramic View (Post#2) : Cascade Mountain

The photo above is Cascade Mountain Side View which captured while I was near in Lake Minnewanka in Banff National Park last May 2008 when I got a chance to visit Canada in short period of time. I can’t forget this park as this awaken myself to one of the things that I really love since I was in college which is mountain. Every time I saw mountains, I always think how beautiful the mountain is and wondering whats on it to experience. I love climbing mountain but never had a chance to climb an alpine mountain as I live in tropical country and what we have are tropical mountains.

The photo above was captured while at the summit of Tarak Ridge. I joined my mountaineering group for Tarak Ridge climb last October 2010. Tarak Ridge is one of the peak of Mount Mariveles which located in Mariveles Bataan, Philippines. I will not forget this mountain because the climb experienced I had here made me feel like I was a spider while crawling the very steep trail on the way to Tarak Ridge. I never thought that I would make it to the top.

Name Of The Place (Post #1): Orchard Rd

Yes, Orchard Rd is famous, specially for shopaholic. This is one of the busiest street in Singapore even though most of the stores located here comes with big names in fashion world.

Aside from what I mentioned above, most Filipinos who lives, work and visits in Singapore knows this road because of one familiar place that close in our heart and made every Filipino to be at home for a moment is located here which is the “Lucky Plaza”.

What else can I say about Orchard Road? Now I remembered, the first hotel that I stayed-in outside the country is located here as well which is the Orchard Hotel Singapore.
