My sights were already set on doubling the number of hits I get on this site per month, and then doubling that, and then doubling it again. You get it. Well, let’s just say I’d have to change my focus. If you follow this blog on Instagram or Facebook, you’d know that this was dead …
If you’ve ever had to file a document, secure a license or register anything with the government, chances are you’re under the impression that applying for a marriage license in the Philippines will leave you feeling more exhausted than necessary. And that’s understandable, what with the long queues and the dreaded red tape that our …
Would you cry in front of a stranger? Weddings are emotional events, so it’s not unusual to shed a tear or two. So if you’re more than likely going to let tears flow that day, would you be comfortable doing so in front of someone you hardly know? Of course, there’s nothing wrong if that’s not …
My wife and I celebrated our anniversary last week. And this meant that, apart from the obvious, we had a good reason to stuff our faces. Although eating out is the one luxury we frequently allow ourselves to give in to, we go easy on buffets and other unlimited-food offerings because we find them excessive, …
It was our second time at Go Thai Bistro, and we finally thought to take photos. I guess that already sums up our experience at this little restaurant in Lipa City, nestled behind Big Ben Complex. The food is so good, you’d find it hard to remember to document what you’re having. Now, you forget …

Summer’s only fun when you’re at the beach. And I believe in that wholeheartedly. The heat’s been horrid. If only we could spend all the weekends of our lives feeling the sand in our toes, embracing the crash of waves, swimming in lovely beaches. We did have a mini-getaway last weekend. It was a double …
Wellness is the most popular topic of conversations and projects these days. Most everyone you know has plans, if not already starting, to get fitter and living healthier. While I can admit that the being surrounded by people who are actively choosing to live a healthier lifestyle and seeing (and sometimes even writing) about diets, …
Considering we don’t spend a lot of time at our rented place — we stay mostly at my mom’s cos that’s where our daughter lives… it’s complicated — I’m really into nesting and looking for ways to decorate the place. Maybe it’s my subconscious hoping we’d actually get to spend more time there if it …
