About me



Hello, my name is  Lylinette and I am the person behind this blog.  I have a full-time job as a Software Quality Engineer for a globally known company on weekdays and I created this blog to know me, my hobbies, my interests, and my travel stories.  To know me professionally, please click this page to redirect you to my LinkedIn page: Lylinette Encorporado. 

I came from a family of business-minded people and starting a small-scale business mainly interests me. My parents own a stall in our local market wherein small farmers sell their yield crops, and aside from that they also sell a variety of goods to consumers in our locality. My eldest sister who is now a high school principal owns a sand and gravel business. She achieved her Master's Degree in Physics from a premier state university in our country, the University of the Philippines. My other sibling who is now working in Australia also owns a sari-sari store business in her home. She is an accountant by profession and has worked under the Philippine Bureau of Internal Revenue. Right now I am interested to hear successful stories of prominent people published in Strait Times or Times magazine. I listen to the speeches of Jack Ma, the CEO and founder of Alibaba. 

When I was in high school I was the associate editor in chief of our school publication and printed news, feature, sports and editorial articles. I represented Cebu Province for Copyreading and Headline writing during a regional press conference.

Aside from being business-minded and savvy to know the first thing about technology because of the nature of my job, I am into travel and decided to become a travel bee so this blog was born. 

It was my friends who introduced me to travel. I was able to savor international and local cuisines. Every year, I see to it that I will go to a place that I have never been and I would love to have that opportunity to travel with you. Join me as I wander the 7,107 islands of the Philippines and hopefully see some parts of the world too.


Aside from traveling, I also practice yoga.  When stressed, I hum and sing. If we share the same interests, you have come to the right page. In addition if you want to hear me make music, here is a link to my sound box.
Don't forget to add me as a friend and enjoy! 😊

4D3N Boracay - Islas de Gigantes Itinerary

One summer in 2016, we were blessed to explore and experience two of the most visited island destinations in Western Visayas; Boracay Island and Isla de Gigantes . Let me share with you how we did it and here is our 4D3N itinerary. We first flew from Mactan Cebu International Airport to Kalibo , the gateway to Boracay. We then rode a van to Caticlan Jetty Port and ride the boat going to the island. There is a direct flight from Cebu to Caticlan but is more expensive. Day 1 - Experience Boracay Boracay, once dubbed as the most beautiful island in the world is not just for the rich but for budget travelers too. I get excited when I hear the word Boracay because it's where you can find all the fun activities on the beach. If I was given more time and more money I would definitely go back to Boracay and try all the activities there. Nevertheless, I've listed all the fun things that we did for one day and one night in Bora.  Helmet Diving . A guided underwater trek ...
