48 hours in France

Getting 48 hours in France is simply too short to justify the world’s most visited country or city. However, with a carefully planned trip, those 48 hours or two days are more than enough to create wonderful memories and get a great experience. France is known for amazing cities and architecture as well as luxury hotels and cheap hotels. One will get overwhelmed with the choice available. Once you have made the flight booking and secured a lodging at one of the luxury catered ski chalets in France , it is time to make most of those two-precious days you have in your hand. You could explore the Roman remains or enjoy the coastal views or go for the current exhibitions. The idea is to make most out of the delectable destination and avoid getting overwhelmed with the number of options and choices you have. For those who have just 48 hours, here’s what is highly recommended for them. You could cover both Paris and Nice, and they happen to be the most sought-after destinations in France. 

A Short Break Getaway | Agos Boracay Rooms + Beds

Boracay Island is known  for  its white sand beach and crystal clear water. Year around tourist is getting bigger and bigger. There's a lot of hotels to choose from Budget to a luxurious one.  My friend and I were planning to have  a short vacation  from our stressful work. I was looking for a place to stay, and I find Agos Boracay  is  perfect for our choices.   I waited for my friend to arrive since we are different arrival times.  Agos  Boracay is strategically located  on  the main road of Station 2 and a 5-minute walk to  D' Mall  and D'talipapa were most of the souvenir shop is located. When my friend  arrived, we  headed straight to the front desk of the hotel. It was a very smooth check-in process after confirming our reservation, the staff asked  us  valid id, while waiting they gave us a cold towel  that's  perfect for a hot weather.    Our first night was in a Family Room located on the 4th floor of the building with an overlooking

Chartered Flight of Philippine Airlines | PR 2242 - Cebu to Kalibo

I've been on a Philippines Airlines flight across the Philippines in the past few years, but this is the memorable one, a flight that I've never ever expected in my whole travel career. Back then, when I was planning my Zamboanga, Basilan, and Tawi-Tawi travels, I was thinking of escaping Manila as my transit airport. Instead, I use Davao on my onward flight to Zamboanga from Iloilo and Cebu as my return flight to Kalibo. I rush myself going to the airport from Cebu City, I miss the 6:40 pm schedule of My bus going to Mactan-Cebu International Airport, I ride to the 7 pm schedule instead, I was a little bit nervous since my scheduled flight is 9 pm. I got worried about the traffic that would cause me to miss my flight, but I made it. I reach the airport an hour before my flight schedule. The last time I departed/arrived at this airport was in 2011, my 1st ever travel. There's a lot of changes, and it is more beautiful now. I headed straight to the check-in coun

Antique Province Eco-Adventure | Las Islas Travel and Tours

Antique Province has a lot of adventure to offer for kids to Senior Citizen, My friend Jherson invited me to join his team on a weekend adventure in the three municipalities composed of Pandan, Culasi, and Tibiao. The team meets me in Boracay as I am based on the island. We left the island around 2pm, our first destination is the Malumpati Cold Spring. It's approximately an hour from Caticlan Jetty Port.

Sea Breeze Cafe by Henann Regency Boracay: Not Meeting Expectations

I was so excited to try the buffet of See Breeze Cafe by Henann Regency Boracay because it was rated as one of luxurious buffet restaurants in the island. We're supposed to have dinner with my best friend since they had a dancing chef show starts at 8 pm but we do lunch instead.  We arrived before 11:45 am since the buffet will start at 12 noon until 2:30pm, the staff assisted us on where to seat, the place is elegant as I expected but a little bit hot inside because is not air-conditioned.  While the staff is preparing the buffet, I and friend talk about our past buffet experience in some high end Restaurant in Manila that the food is flavorful and delicious.  The buffet lunch starts and the most attract me is the canape's, the presentation is perfect, but the taste is just an ordinary flavor and nothing special.  While waiting with my other friend who  will join us for lunch. I just noticed that some of their employees wearing uniform and  most of them are

Cross-Border: Kota Kinabalu, Malaysia to Muara, Brunei via Labuan Island

It was my second day in Kota Kinabalu, and I was thinking of visiting Labuan Island before I headed to Brunei for my flight back to the Philippines. The bus from KK to Brunei will take more or less 10 hours, and I can’t do it anymore since I took that bus from Brunei to KK . The weather in Borneo is sweltering, and there are 4 borders to cross. It is a very tiring route. Labuan Express Tiga bound to Labuan Island I went to Jesselton Port, just a 5-minute walk from  Hotel Grandis where I stayed for 2 nights to buy a ticket to Brunei via Labuan Island on The next day, and I paid 60 Ringgit and extra 5 Ringgit for a 1 st class seat to Labuan. Ticket Booth for Brunei via Labuan I'm roaming around the pier and nothing an interesting, my planned was to do an Island hopping in Gaya and nearby island, since there’s a lot of tourist on that day I decided to cancel it because I will not enjoy the tour. The next morning I wake up around 6am to fix my things before I take
