Every climber has his/her own awesome story of ascent. For us, it was the embarrassing-turned-funny memories and some thrill-aggravating, on the spot made-up fictions. It was also made a lot exciting by the gullible and astute companions. But before I share to you the stories of the climb, let me start with a brief introduction. Pico de Loro Trivia Pico de Loro, which literally translates to Parrot’s Beak, is one of the three peaks in Mount Palay-Palay mountain range (officially, Mt Palay-Palay National Park) in the municipalities of Ternate and Maragondon, Province of Cavite.

We arrived in Butuan late at night after our tour in the islands of Siargao and Bucas Grande. Though tired and sleepy, we still went out after checking-in to our accommodation to look for a place to eat. We did not mind what place it may be as long as we can sate our hunger the soonest. We found out that a Gaisano Mall is nearby so we boarded a trike to reach the place. Along the way, we passed this eatery with thick smoke on its side (kitchen area). We were curious but we continued to Gaisano and thought of ... Read more

Tired and hungry – that was everyone’s complain after our Saturday morning boot camp. We were all not used to that type of activity and it drained us a lot.

We were at night shift and we were tired of fast food. Though new to the place, since we just moved in to a new building along Sapphire Road, we ventured out an hour past midnight to check for better options. We considered exploring for midnight eats along Emerald Avenue but before we could make a turn, we noticed this flickering banner of Salang Restaurant at the mezzanine floor of AIC Gold Tower. We went upstairs and curiously checked. At first we thought it was closed. The restaurant was dimly illuminated and its door did not open on our first attempt. Laughter ... Read more

We are heading to Dapa in Siargao Island but we missed the last departing boat. We had no other choice but to spend the rest of the day in Surigao City. Marx, my companion on that trip, contacted a friend (Nathalie) and asked for a possible place to hang out. Nathalie, who happened to be a local, suggested us to visit Mabua Pebble Beach which is just a tricycle away from the city proper. The trike terminal to Mabua is located along Sarvida St. just beside Palma Trade Center. We paid ₱20 for the one-way trip. The Mabua Pebble Beach I ... Read more
