Inquiries: [email protected] Travel and food. Two things that almost always go together. Who doesn’t love to eat?

For Filipinos, no place is too near or too far as long as a scrumptious meal awaits… and I am not exempt to that fact. The Philippines is a wonderful place filled with sights that will fill you with awe and amazement… and with each destination, dishes that are deliciously unique, influenced by culturally-diverse palettes are pleasantly discovered. Perhaps my passion to travel and the desire to see

new things has inspired me to finish a degree in Tourism. Similarly, growing up in a household with grandparents dedicated to perfecting home-cooked, nostalgic dishes, honed my skills in the kitchen. Who doesn’t want to feast not just on food, but also on wondrous sights and astonishingly new places? Allow me, through this food and travel blog, to help navigate you in and around the metropolis and beyond… exploring notable tourist spots and undiscovered locations alike. Join me as I indulge in popular cuisine specialties and bravely seek unusual delicacies.

Perimenopause: another chapter in my life that nobody explained. Walang manual, walang warning, at madalas… walang usapan. But it’s real, messy, confusing, and it’s happening to so many of us.
Ibang klaseng headaches, mood swings, hair fall, breakouts, weird body changes, and sudden anxiety… until one scare made me realize that tiis-tiis will never be the answer. Taas kamay dyan ang pareho ng symptoms ko! 😅

So yes, I went through the tests. The scans. The bloodwork. The meds. The routines. Prevention is key talaga!

If you’re going through the same thing, please know this: you are not alone and there’s nothing to be ashamed of. Ask questions. See your doctor. Do the tests when you can. And don’t ignore what your body is trying to tell you.

We are aging, yes… but we are getting wiser, stronger, and more in control.

Take care of yourself, ladies. Your family needs you to be healthy. You need you healthy.

Nothing beats a Filipino Christmas at home… good food, good company, good vibes. 🎄

We also love getting holiday inspo from . From cute table pieces like plates and wine glasses na perfect for handaan, to affordable finds that instantly make any set-up feel festive without breaking the bank.

Watching you spread your wings never gets easy, but it’s always worth it. ❤️

From “Mom, I’ll be home late” to “Mom, I’m relocating to Cebu.”

is off to Cebu for his new AirAsia adventure. New city. New skies. Same dream. Proud, but my heart’s not ready. Not the first time, but it never gets easier. Grateful it’s just Cebu this time. 😅

Love you, anak! 💕

The saying “health is wealth” is something we often take for granted, until someone we know gets sick… or worse, until it happens to us. ☹️

Last Wednesday night, I experienced the worst headache ever! It was throbbing like someone was drilling inside my head! I felt flushed, short of breath, and everything suddenly went blurry, parang 3D but without the glasses. My BP shot up to 176/83, and at that point, I really thought it could be something serious like a stroke or heart issue. So I asked to take me to the ER right after dinner.

Thank God, my MRI came out clear! It wasn’t a stroke or anything neurological. It turned out to be a vascular migraine episode, likely triggered by hormones (hello, perimenopause), stress, lack of sleep, or something I ate. How I wish we could live stress-free pero mailap talaga ‘yun, haha! All good now. I just need to take it slow, hydrate, and practice more self-love. Still, this perimenopause phase is something else. I never expected my body to go through such a rollercoaster.

To everyone reading this, we only have one body. Please take care of it. I’m so grateful we have a health card because medical expenses are no joke. If you can, invest in health insurance. You’ll never know when you’ll need it… and when you do but don’t have one, masakit sa bulsa ang magkasakit. 😔

Listen to your body. Don’t wait it out. Health will always be the best kind of wealth. ❤️

Not every workout has to be long. Sometimes, a quick home workout and a good post-workout drink after is all it takes to lift my mood.💧Just moving, glowing, and staying fit in my 40s, one day at a time. 💪
