Something to reflect on during these uncertain times: “I’ve seen better days, but I’ve also seen worse. I don’t have everything that I want, but I do have all I need. I woke up with some aches and pains, but I woke up. My life may not be perfect but I am blessed.” – Helen Barry

The San Agustin Church, a UNESCO World Heritage site, has survived fires, earthquakes and wars. It was the only building left standing in Intramuros after the Battle of Manila in 1945. A gutsy survivor.

Summer memories from Wawie’s Beach Resort, Maniwaya Island, Sta. Cruz, Marinduque.

Karst formations at Mongpong Island, Marinduque.

Overlooking Masasa Beach, Tingloy, Batangas.

“If you measure your life by what you own, the cavern of your heart will never be filled.”

That summer feeling...

Unnamed waterfall inside the farm of a friend in Siniloan, Laguna. There are 2 other waterfalls inside or adjacent to their property. His family is planning to convert their place into a bed and breakfast establishment. With scenic spots like this in and around their property this is a pepmising development.
