Say Greece!! | beyondthesefourwalls
https://beyondthesefourwalls.wordpress.com/2014/06/13/say-greece
I read, i travel, i become. Who knew having a friend named after the Goddess of Wisdom and War would lead me to a whirlwind vacation in the ancient city of Athens. Well, I didn’t. This year, for our annual firm junket, my friend, Athenie, was the boss. She got to pick our destination and Athens was her obvious choice. (We went to Santorini as well, but that’s another story). We ate somewhere around Mitropoleos, which happens to be very near our hotel (lucky lucky us! Featured in the picture is Stavros Me...

I read, i travel, i become. Have you forgotten we have a date on my birthday? Of all years, you choose this year to do your renovations? And of all months, you choose August? I’ve been dreaming of you for the longest time. I’ve dreamed of seeing this. By Diliff (Own work) [CC-BY-SA-2.5 ( http:/ creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/2.5. 5D, via Wikimedia Commons.

Ballet at the Palais Garnier | beyondthesefourwalls
https://beyondthesefourwalls.wordpress.com/2013/12/12/ballet-at-the-palais-garnier
I read, i travel, i become. Ballet at the Palais Garnier. I’ve always been a fan of live entertainment, be it concert, play or musical. So when Jenny asked us if we could catch a show at the Palais Garnier, I immediately said yes. We were originally planing to see an opera at the Palais Garnier. But all the shows during the week we would be in Paris were already booked. So, we opted for the ballet. The main ballroom reminded me so much of the Hall of Mirrors in Versailles. It was so beautiful and rich.

Santorini to the tune of “Best Day of My Life” | beyondthesefourwalls
https://beyondthesefourwalls.wordpress.com/2014/06/15/santorini-to-the-tune-of-best-day-of-my-life
I read, i travel, i become. Santorini to the tune of “Best Day of My Life”. Since we were already in Greece, we thought it best to visit Santorini as well. Santorini was just as we expected. It was breath-taking. It reminded me of Batanes, the northernmost part of the Philippines. It was a rocky mountainous island surrounded by a clear blue sea. Clockwise from top left: (1) Aegean salad; (2) Stuffed Pork Fillet: (3) Mama’s spaghetti; and (4) stuffed vegetables. We stayed until it was dark. After that, we...

A Day with the Gods!! | beyondthesefourwalls
https://beyondthesefourwalls.wordpress.com/2014/06/15/a-day-with-the-gods
I read, i travel, i become. A Day with the Gods! The Acropolis is a complex, composed mainly of three different temples. First, near the Propylaea (the entrance), the Temple of Athena Nike. It’s the smallest of the Acropolis complex but looks like the most preserved. Finally, at the middle of the Acropolis, the Parthenon. The Parthenon is what the Eiffel Tower is to Paris. You see this iconic building all around Athens and everytime you do, it would literally stop you in your tracks. Sometime in the 1800...

MuSiNgS: December 2005
http://miscalculated.blogspot.com/2005_12_01_archive.html
Thursday, December 29, 2005. I treated my four yr old cousin Rita to a Happy Meal at McDonald’s-Centroplex yesterday. Seconds after I laid down our food at the table, she told me that she wanted to pee. So I asked the crew if they have a comfort room within the store. Alas, she said “None.” The only toilets are at the 2. I can’t believe my ears! So I asked them “Are you sure? Is it really okay with you? LUV ko to…. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Wednesday, April 26, 2006. Artistic Diving in Sipalay. On the way to Sipalay, we stopped by a lighthouse and this was the view that greeted us at the top. I just love the beach! I want to build a beach house someday. The sound of the waves and the sight of crystal blue waters and azure skies give a feeling of tranquility and serenity. Thursday, April 20, 2006. Final Leg of the Sagada Escapade. 8220;This tastes like Lactacyd.”. 8211;Kristin referring to the yogurt. 8220;What, you’ve tasted Lactacyd? More ...
