So I visited Winterhouse in Cartimar, the shop that specializes in winter clothing. I went to Cartimar yesterday just right after I visited my derma in Makati Med. My main purpose is to see the Winterhouse to find some winter clothing that I could use for our Hongkong trip (yay! third time) this February. The shop is definitely great for those people who are looking for cheap yet quality winter clothes. I was not able to buy any because most of their stuff there are for countries with snow like thermal jackets, french coats and sweaters. There are lots of…

Because we live in a tropical country, my honey and I would always take advantage of going to cold places every January. For us, even if we travel only in nearby countries in Asia, there’s still a huge difference in going to abroad during the cold months. We just booked for HongKong on February 2012 (yeah third time) and I’m looking again for new boots that I could use. I’ve been traveling before and yet it’s only now that I got to discover the Winterhouse. It was featured in Mel & Jeoy and I’m sure I’ll drop by on this…

My honey and I really love to eat. But when we’re in Singapore, we didn’t ate that much since our hotel complimentary breakfast (YWCA) is often enough for our whole day tour (4-days) and they’re good ha. But we’ve also tried different street foods and dishes in Vivo City mall – where the monorail station going to Sentosa is located. The food in Singapore is good but we don’t know if we have eaten the authentic ones. I can relate their dishes to what is being served in HongKong and Macau, only that it is mixed with Indian food. We’re…

Discovering new places, its traditions, people and especially food are the things I always look forward each time I travel. After several travels, I learned how to appreciate these things and look at it as important part of my journeys which I always impart to my loved ones and to you, guys! As time goes by, I also learned that I must travel with ease. I started removing some unwanted stuffs from my bag. During my first travel, I brought a big shoulder bag which has extra shirts (okay, like a baby) and toiletries that I never used. So I…
