My Sweet Escape to Dumaguete City

Dumaguete city is one of my favorite go to destinations because of Sans Rival Cakes and Pastries. If you desire for cakes checkout their menu and of course Sans Rival, a frozen layered cake consists of cashew meringue and buttercream. Likely food tastes better when you share it with friends. 

Faith and Friends in Sans Rival Cakes and Pastries

Moreover if you want to savor other authentic international cuisines Gabby's Bistro is right around the corner. You may try their Creamy Dory, a beer-battered dory fish fillet deep fried topped with cheese sauce and served with plain rice.

This city in Negros Oriental is also home to Silliman University known for being a great school producing competitive Accounting, Engineering, Medicine and Nursing professionals across the globe. This 29-hectare campus surrounded by acacia trees has buildings that are worth-visiting. Its open fields can be a nice venue for event gatherings. Buglasan Festival the most awaited festival-of-festivals in Negros Oriental is a week long celebration showcasing the arts and crafts of the Negrenses. It is held during October as a thanksgiving for the abundant harvest of the land and sea.

The city of gentle people has 780-meters long Rizal boulevard where you can enjoy watching its sunrise and sunset. Historians say that Dr. Jose Rizal who passed by this city on the way to his exile at Dapitan enjoys strolling along its shores. People manage to preserve its cleanliness over the years. A nearby tourist attraction, the province of Siquijor is a two-hour boat ride away.

Other neighboring attractions in Dumaguete City are Apo Island and Manjuyod Sandbar. Apo Island is prominent to tourists for snorkeling because of its various species of turtles and its beautiful coral reef system. Manjuyod sandbar being tagged by people as the mini Maldives of the Philippines is also an hour ride away.

Best of Camiguin

I am always in awe with God's marvels so I am writing again another natural gem in my country, the island of Camiguin. This is a volcanic island in Northern Mindanao that is bestowed with rich natural pleasures for its waterfalls, hot springs and island beach destinations.  Katibawasan Falls There are direct domestic flights from international airports in our country such as Manila International Airport and Mactan Cebu International Airport to the "Island of Fire". This island is also a boat ride away from Cebu nautical ports. First hot spring is "Ardent Hotspring". What awaits visitors is a tranquil experience because of its thermal water . It sits directly at the foot of Mt.Hibok-Hibok and is surrounded by lush forests.

Among these waterfalls I personally witness "Katibawasan Falls...

Short weekend getaway in Samal Island

Samal island is one of the favorite tourist attractions in the Philippines. I have known since I was a kid that Davao City takes it pride in producing durian fruits and candies. Francisco Bangoy International Airport is domestically accessible within key cities of Manila, Clark, Palawan, Caticlan, Iloilo, Cebu, Bacolod or Zamboanga.  Davao City is the safest metropolis in the country and the gateway to other beautiful destinations in the land of promise. In Magsaysay Park, you can buy durian, pomelo, mangosteen and marang. My message to UP students is to stop spreading rumors and nonsense memes that lead nowhere for wellness sake.  durian park There are available tour packages if you want to view the breathtaking scenic overview of Mt.Apo and revisit our country's history. It is the 24th highest peak on Earth, also known as the father of Philippine mountains. A merry park to visit in Davao City is Camp William.
