When the pencil strikes...

There are times when we'd rather be some place else... That's when my pencil comes of good use. :)

The Golden Apple

A view of Souk al Bahar and Burj al Arab Henna tattoo inside a tent in the dessert The land of gold and henna, Dubai has been one of the most famous vacation spots for tourists and job destinations for expatriates alike. A stranger once told me that Dubai is “the New York of the Middle East”. Little had I known that there would be a lot of truth into that, of course I was still a newbie in this Emirate at that time. Burj Khalifa Culture and innovation clashed and gave birth to this fusion called “Dubai”. In no other place will you ever find the old and new collide and help each other grow in their individual aspects, indeed a unique mix of the antiquated with the contemporary. Monstrous structures with peculiar, yet very beautiful, architectural designs seem to have had an outbreak all over this city. The tallest structure (the Burj Khalifa), the only “seven-star” hotel in the world (the Burj al Arab) and the man-made islands (the Palm Islands) are only some among

We were in search of the perfect place where we could take a breather when my sister and I arrived from Dubai for our vacation. It had to be somewhere quiet and away from the busyness of the city. It also had to have white sands and clear crystal waters. Most of all, it had to be somewhere not that far as we only had literally two days to spare since my sister only had fourteen days to spend here in the Philippines and we had to be back in Bacolod in time for our little sister's graduation.  Ride to Sipalay So after tedious research on possible places, and vigorous calls and text messaging to possible resorts to stay at, we ended up with the best option...Sipalay. Reaching there would only take us less than four hours, we could take our own car since it's in the same province, and we could also have a little look at the other scenery around the other cities and towns on the way there. And so the fun begins... Scenery on the way to Sipalay Althoug
