To find out that we have been selected as one of the finalists in this year&#8217;s Philippine Blog Awards was enough for us to drop our delicates while walking to our respective offices&#8230;
Yes, we want to say it: We did not expect this&#8230;
Why? Because a year ago, somebody mentioned that our blog is full of rated contents. Let&#8217;s just say you would not recommend us to people below 21 years old, doing research on travel.
But hey, that just makes the nomination and being quoted on the final list, and National ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It was one of those waking moments when I thought I was still trapped in la-la land because the text message that woke me up read something like, &#8220;we are being invited to guest on a TV show. Get your ass online.&#8221; So I staggered in the middle of the night and checked our email. Lo and behold, it was true. But then as I scanned the message, the taping dates fell on the dates Ron and I will celebrate his birthday in God-knows-where. I contacted the researcher and our chance of making ourselves ...]]></description>

Soon you will be checkin&#8217; out some chicas way prettier than those you hooked up with during your mexico holidays. LOL! For sure there&#8217;s a greener apple up there beyond the iClouds.
Thanks to you, now there are three apples that changed this world: The one that Adam ate, the one that dropped on Newtons head and the one that you built.
The plugs that you stuck in our ears helped us shut all the stupidities in this earth.
You made the simple touch, slide and tap of a finger magically connect us to ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Who would have known that this September would be one of the most memorable months of our travel blogging experience. Years ago, we would never imagine getting within a hand-span distance from people who live and breathe travel. But the bug hit, and the rest of our not-so-boring, but still boring, lives are history.
First stop was the Solesister&#8217;s event &#8220;From Glampackers to Poorpackers&#8221; where I was invited to talk at the opening night. The topic: &#8220;Female Travel.&#8221; I know, I know&#8230; I felt a bit lost too, but I did try ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[
When we started this blog, it did not matter if we only had five regular readers. It never disturbed us when our page ranking dropped down the floor. We just wanted to have an outlet where we can share the stories of our travels. After 193 articles, almost 600 GB of photos and video clips, 3 magazine articles and an international cover, we are still rolling stronger than ever.
For the past three years of traveling together, we have endured 56 plane rides, an unexpected 27 hours of hard-seat train adventure, ...]]></description>

Sometime in 2007:
Monette: We will be &#8220;the&#8221; travel blog celebrities..
 Ron:  &#8230; NO, internet sensation &#8230;
 Monette: Or, travel correspondents&#8230;
 Ron: Make that, Travel writers for guide books and travel magazines&#8230;
 &#60;brief silence&#62;
 Both: WAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA &#60;cough! cough!&#62; AHAHAHAHAHA!

We never imagined in our wildest dreams that in this life time, we will see our own bylines on printed media&#8230; glossy magazine&#8230; internationally released. It was nothing but pot of gold at the end of the rainbow.
It was a lazy Sunday afternoon, we were on skype brainstorming for the next  trip and trying to organize ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[OKAY! Maybe It&#8217;s a bit too late to react to the Department of Tourism&#8217;s (so called) Campaign facelift, and if it&#8217;s really a facelift it definitely upstaged an effing Jocelyn Wildenstein disaster. It was indeed the biggest Philippine tourism brouhaha to date. Even bigger than the Hayden Kho sh*t!
Tourism Undersecretary Enteng Romano, in a text message forwarded by Palace Spokesperson Abi Valte, said, &#8220;There is no plagiarism. There are enough elements in the Pilipinas logo to differentiate it from that of Poland. The color scheme and visual elements are markedly ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It was around 6:00 PM (manila time) I was snoozing when a tremor woke me up. Not sure about the magnitude but it was that strong that the few seconds of movement of my apartment building jolted me up from my dream sequence.
I never thought it’s a warning of nature. 12 hours later right across the other side of the globe, in Port-au-Prince a 7.0 magnitude eartquake hit the city one unsuspecting afternoon. This claimed the lives of what feared to top about 100,000 people. This nation has never faced ...]]></description>

Now Imagine this: Flying with no less than the country&#8217;s flag carrier. Being taken care of, including all meals throughout the entire trip, plus covering the island activities with PhP5,000 pocket money, and it will run for 5 Days while staying in 5 Star Luxury Resort.

The Country&#8217;s  most active volcano could erupt within days, officials warned Sunday after detecting a drastic surge in earthquakes and eerie rumbling sounds in surrounding foothills. Tens of thousands of villagers have been evacuated as a precaution.
Scientists raised the alert level for the Mayon volcano to one step below a major eruption after 453 volcanic earthquakes were detected in a five-hour span Sunday, compared to just ...]]></description>
