Paradise Ranch, Clark Air Base

Being a local of Angeles City, Pampanga, it's natural that I visit attractions and other possible tourist destinations in my beloved city, simply because I love to travel, being close to nature, a proud Angeleno and, like everyone else, need regular stress-relievers: mine are travelling and my beading. 

Angeles City is two hours away from Manila, capital of the Philippines. This next visit is a lazy-day retreat with cousins and friends. Paradise Ranch is another 30 minutes drive from Clark main gate, bounded by Barangay Bamban, Tarlac with temperature comparable to Tagaytay. It serves a perfect place for camping, field trips, retreats, garden weddings, conference meetings etc., you decide :)

Flawlessly gracing a photo-up with me :)

Isdaan - Gerona, Tarlac

One of the most unique restaurants in the Philippines. Isdaan, a floating restaurant concept with a fusion of Buddhist and Filipino culture. It's kinda weird but somehow works well, has earned and continuously earns patrons from both North and South food adventurers.

I'll let the pictures do the talking! ;)

Precious Moments at Isdaan: December 2010

Saint Agustin Church, Lubao, Pampanga

I remember dearly this wedding we attended in Pampanga in December 2012. It was a wedding of my Tito's long-time friends. They have been together for a long time, and, like the Legazpi's (Carmina and Zoren) they already have children. It was a beautiful wedding of a strong and happy couple held at the Church were Mikey Arroyo (son of former president Gloria Arroyo) exchanged vows with his other half. :)

Since this is actually a travel blog so, you're gonna see more of the place rather than the event itself. 

Baguio City December

Ladies and gentlemen, May I present to you the "Summer Capital of the Philippines" Baguio City! You may wonder how it was awarded the title: Since Philippines is a tropical country, it is usually hot and humid and Filipinos favor it as a retreat during regular seasons especially holidays because of the cold and foggy weather.

Ocean View, Subic

Looking for good and affordable place to enjoy the beach near Manila? Try Ocean View in Subic Bay, Olongapo.

Another jumpshot for a great summer with my cousins :)

Compared to Boracay, Subic beaches does not offer a mall of souvenirs and a lot of fancy restaurants all in one place . You'd have to tour around Subic Bay Metropolitan Area or the whole of Subic to experience the facilities and a lot of other attractions the place can offer. It would take you 10 to 40 minutes to get to some major attractions of Subic, Olongapo.
