The Year That Was! Guys, Now that we are well into 2016. I can't help but think about the year that has passed.

I was able to enjoy life, pursue my dreams, what I love to do, getting my travel fulfillment & success. Here's my look back over what was happening, places, special events, activities & misadventures last year:

Welcome to Puerto Princesa International Airport in Palawan

Hello & Welcome to Puerto Princesa International Airport in Palawan is one of the most convenient airport when traveling to the main proper, around 5-10 minutes away form the city. You can hire tricyle or traxi going to the center.  The arrival area is in the open outside the terminal building & the space is too small. This flight is courtesy of Cebu Pacific with the promo rates. I booked the ticket 6 months ago before our flight schedule.

Aerial View of Puerto Princesa from Above

This was my first time here in this province, also known as  " The City of Paradise". It was a cloudy yet amazing day for two of us. I saw a lot of island & mountains around the city of Puerto Princesa, the capital of Palawan Province. You can't leave the city without navigating or touring the city's various tourist attractions. One of the main attractions is the Puerto Princesa Underground River which is known to be the Seven Wonders of Nature in the World. Follow me to my awesome trip here in Palawan & beyond.

My Favorite Sili Ice Cream of 1st Colonial Grill in Legaspi City

The haven of Bicolano cuisines & desserts where eating is "More Than Just an Experience". One of the popular restaurant around the Province of Albay, you must try there unique-flavored ice cream  better than some ice in Metro Manila I've tasted & very reasonably priced. I decided to try the sili, maluggay & calamansi ice cream. This is definitely better than unusual flavored brand of ice cream. They have a good service , clean facilities, friendly staff and affordable prices. First Colonial Grill has also a several best seller original dishes like Tinapa Rice, Ensaladang Talong with a twist & other yummy owned version of ice cream. A must try for when you are in Bicol region, whether you are a sweet tooth or not. I guarantee you will make your trip a happy tummy and more than unusual food trip. 

A Night Walk at Embarcadero De Legaspi in Albay

The Embarcadero in Legaspi City, Albay is a good place to have your lunch or dinner with a side view of the Mayon Volcano & City Seaport or Bay Seaside Boulevard. It has also a searchlight on top of a colorful lighthouse. It is small mall in the heart of the city and I think the only store people visit there is Puregold inside the mall. There also an entertainment bars, restaurants & boutiques. A very safe place to visit and really enjoy every single moment with your friends & family. It's also a good venue to hold different events.

There is a budget hotel located on the topmost floor of the mall. For me it's not really a place to do stuff but rather to just let nature settle in without the noise of the city or do a sunset watching over the backdrop of Mayon Volcano and a breezy experience.
