Dabawenyang Laagan

Wandering Dabawenya finally sets her foot in Visayas!   Hello, Iloilo! 😊 Yup, that's me. Below the tarp. I had a hard time looking at my face as well. Hahaha. Our tour in Iloilo was short, it was only for three days. So, what did we do in Iloilo and the Panay Island for three days? We did the Bacolod-Iloilo-Guimaras tour. These were the places we visited: Got a taste of La Paz Batchoy Rode Iloilo's unique jeepneys Guimaras Island Hopping and Tour Tasted the world's sweetest mango Fed fishes in SEAFDEC Visited the Taj Mahal of the Philippines, The Ruins  Ate the original Chicken Inasal Visited Bacolod's New Government Center Got lost at Iloilo Souvenir shopping and many more!

Den Yho's Place is one of the places to be visited if you're in Davao Del Sur. It's owned by renowned artist Kublai Milan. Kublai Milan is known for his artworks which can be seen in People's Park. :) The place is located in a cool place in the mountains, overlooking Mount Apo. It's a perfect place for unwinding and staying away from the stress of the city. The place has a swimming pool, a restaurant and the Agong's House. To get to the resort, you need to walk uphill from the gate. Picture picture while walking up. /kapoy friend. Hahaha The view from the top. Wow no? :) The swimming pool. :) The viewdeck The playground :) Behind the "Land of Peace" and the Agong's House. The trees to the Agong House. We didn't go to the Agong House anymore because we got tired of all the climbing we did to get to the place and from the Camp Sabros walk we had earlier. 

Last March, we went on a trip to Davao del Sur.  Davao Del Sur is just about 2-3 hours from Davao City. There are plenty of activities and sites to visit in the area. There's Camp Sabros and Den Yho's Garden to name a few.  Our first stop was in Lake Agco, which is part of Kidapawan, and then we had side trips at Camp Sabros and Den Yho's place.  Camp Sabros is located near the foot of Mt. Apo. You can get a view of the beautiful mountain from the place. It's a perfect place for taking pictures and team building as well. It also gives you the cold breeze of air, a perfect getaway for the hot summer days. Entrance fee is Php  20-25.  To get to the place, you need to trek around 750 meters uphill or you can ride horse or motorcycle for 50 pesos. We rode a horse on our way to the place. That's my mom. Riding the horse. hehe. They also have zip lines, cable cars and other amenities to enjoy. They also have packages which you can avail.  ...

I've always wanted to visit restaurants and cafes with unique concepts, particularly I want to visit pet cafes and play with pets. I have seen and read about pet cafes such as Barkin Blends which is located in Manila and I really want to pay them a visit. Good thing is I don't have to fly to Manila to experience being in a dog cafe because one has recently opened here in Davao City. Yup, you read that right! Davao City has its own dog cafe! It's located at Autoville compound at F. Torres St. Autoville compound is just beside Davao Convention, in case you're not familiar with it.  We paid the cafe a visit last Black Saturday, it was full house when we came in.  In front of the cafe. Interesting interior. :) It has two parts: the cafe (where you can order and eat your meals and drinks) and the playroom (where the dogs are.) The cafe offers a wide range of drinks and meals prices start at 65 pesos for an espresso. They also offer packages which includ...
