PUNTA FUEGO (places I've been to..and want to go to again!)

My job before at GMA 7 has given me the opportunity to go to a lot of different places and because of that, I'm really grateful. Air travel is what I prefer even if I go on first flight, actually I prefer that than leaving at a later time. Anyway, land trips I really don't care for but it's part of the job so I try to make the most of it. I just sleep tightly on the way. Haha!

Like this trip, Punta Fuego, this was 3hours of travel time or more..good thing the client provided a van for us but since the artist that I was with decided to bring her own car, I was alone in the van. All by my lonesome which I loved.

When we arrived at the location, I was surprised that for a place near the ocean..it was humid! I felt sticky in just minutes. But well, that experience did not stop me from having a few snaps for souvenir. :)

breathtaking view!

they said the waters here were shark-infested!

DAKAK (places I've been to..and want to go to again!)

It's nice to look up old photos and reminisce about the 'not-so-old' days..I've always loved to travel even in the nearest..or farthest.. of places. It's always the experience that counts.

These pics were taken way back 2004, I think, when I was still a talent coordinator for Eat Bulaga. We had a show at Zamboanga and for the first night, we stayed at Dapitan City at the Dapitan City Resort Hotel which was a great place but of course, we were looking forward to Dakak because most of us haven't been there before. So for the second and final night, after the tiring day of the live show at some remote place, we enjoyed and took in the ambiance of this popular resort. And it sure delivered. Our rooms were great and the food was overflowing and most of all, the beach was awesome! White sand all over. Too bad, we had shortage of 'tambay' time because we were due home right away on the fourth day but nevertheless, the experience was great. :)
