Wrangler Philippines True Wanderer Contest

I started blogging in 2005 by just sharing my day-to-day personal experiences. Until 2009, when I was bitten by the "travel bug" during my visit to Cebu and Bohol, It started my passion for travel and adventure and my blog slowly evolved into a travel blog. Since then, it has been known to provide the best tips and travel guides on how to travel around the Philippines by sharing my first-hand travel experiences on different tourist and "off-the beaten" destinations in the country.

Sharing my passion for travel and adventures seek to encourage more people to explore and travel the Philippines and (re)discover how beautiful our beloved country is. It’s all about the adventures, the startling panoramas, the people met, the food tasted, the ride taken and the journey to reach a destination. My passion was fueled even more when I challenged myself to visit all the 81 provinces in the Philippines. A personal challenge I never thought I could really fulfill.

My thirst for new adventures, new places to conquer and awesome people to meet drove me to push myself further and finish what I started. In 2013, I fulfilled and finished my personal challenge by setting foot on all the 81 provinces in the Philippines. A moment I am most proud of.

How about you? What fuels you to travel?
