The Adventures of Charmaine

Ormoc City, baptized as the “beauty by the bay” is a great spot to visit for a vacation. It is the most Business-Friendly City in Visayas on 2005, and it was also recognized as the country’s Cleanest and Greenest Cities. The City of Ormoc is the first capital city in the Philippines which is non-provincial, and is the center for commerce and industry located west part of Leyte.

Our trip started at 4P.M when we boarded a supercat heading to ormoc.

Our first stop was Don Felipe Hotel situated along Bonifacio Street in the City of Ormoc.

I was awed by serenity of the place and the beautiful views surrounding it.

 Just south of Malaybalay off the highway is the Monastery of the Transfiguration. Even for non-religious types this is a gorgeous drive into the hills, which are planted with coffee by the monks..

This church Established by the Benedictine Monks, the Monastary of Transfiguration pyramid church has an architectural design of simplicity with elegance. Not only that, since its situated in the hills of Malaybalay Bukidnon, it’s fresh air and impeccable silence is a great combo for a moment of solitude. This is one of the beautiful church.

Forever Stoked!!

We remember great moments in our life. These are the days somehow appear to change the path of our lives.  For some people they consider the best were weddings, graduations, the birth of children and personal enlightenment. I haven’t experience some of those yet. For me, and I’m guessing for most surfers, it is the day we caught our first wave. It is the moment in my life that I will never forget and it will be treasured forever! It was April 2006 when i got my first wave!

The water falls is located amidst forestal surroundings. It is an ideal place of recreation for nature lovers. It is just a few minutes trek from barangay core of San Isidro, Jasaan, Misamis Oriental.

We must cross the bridge before getting to the falls!

It was an amazing experience. We had so much fun. We just enjoy being in the nature and being close to a falls.

Manila Ocean Park is located in Luneta Boardwalk, City of Manila.

The Philippines’ first state-of-the-art Oceanarium, open water marine habitat.

My sumptuous journey to the bountiful and beautiful floral city of Davao.

People’s park a place to visit! It is a park with a collection of tropical rainforest trees, a Durian fruit dome or a fantasy-themed park with the children to play and enjoy, for free of charge.
