Portraits of India
I was looking into my travels photos other day and I experienced that amazing feeling of remembering a good time in life just by looking at those photos of few years ago when I first went to India. Everything was so exotic, colorful, noisy and chaotic. It took me a couple of months, after I left the country, […]
Philippines – Malapascua
Last week in Philippines, I am in Malapascua a tiny island north of Cebu. Another white sand and incredible clear water beach, the weather is not amazing but it is still warm enough for me. My days here were filled with walking in the beach in the morning, massage, spending some time in the village, […]

The beaches in the island were in powdery black volcanic sand and emerald-blue water. The island offshore were just amazing with the turquoise water and white sand beach. The snorkeling in the Mantigue island was […]

Philippines – North Luzon – Vegan
Unesco World Heritage site, Vegan is a town in North of Philippines with Spanish-era mansions, cobblestone street. Again, I just felt at home. The main square with the church in one end and here is where everything happen and everyone meet. Food stalls, tricycles, horse charts, restaurants with tables outside, children playing, couples walking hand […]
