Stories about places I’ve been to, travel tips, visa information, etc.
After almost a year of vacation in my home country, the Philippines, I am now going back to Serbia, my husband’s home country.

We went to Baler, Aurora for our 2nd Wedding Anniversary because I have been missing the beach and surfing. I’ve stopped for 3 years because I got pregnant, gave birth, and we lived in Serbia (which is land-locked) for more than a year… And I gained so much weight. Due to budget restrictions, we …
I wrote a more detailed guide to getting a Serbian visa. Click here if you want to skip the story below. I am married to a Serbian and I now live with him and our daughter in Serbia. But before this, I had to go through hoops and loops before getting a visa to Serbia. I …

This was one of the trips that started with, “Let’s try something new.” The next thing we know, we’re on a bus going to Ilocos. No transportation nor accommodation booked ahead.

I’ll never get tired of saying it again and again: School Field Trips is more fun in HEDCen! I’ve never joined anything as fun and educational as this back when I was in grade and high school. I’m just glad that I get to experience this while I work there. Last January 2014, I was …
