Because to be honest, it's really massive and will leave you curious on how the eruption happened.</div><div><br /></div><div>In this blog post, I'll be sharing with you what it's like to trek Mt. Pinatubo, from the thrill of the journey to the unforgettable moments you'll encounter along the way. I'll also share a few tips to help you make the most of your trip.</div><div><br /></div><h3 style="text-align: left;">Brief History and Location</h3><div>Mt. Pinatubo, located in the Philippine province of <b>Zambales</b>, is an active stratovolcano renowned for its massive eruption in 1991. This eruption was one of the most powerful of the 20th century which had devastating effects on the surrounding areas, including massive ash fall, lahars (mudflows), and the formation of a new crater lake within the volcano's caldera.</div></div><div><br /></div><h3 style="text-align: left;">Guided Tour</h3><div>I joined a guided tour for this trip and the cost is 2,999 pesos per person. It's actually a joiners tour organized by Soul Trekkers, an accredited travel agency by Zambales LGU. The joiner tour costs 2,999 pesos per person which includes the transportation from Manila to Zambales and vice versa, environmental fee, 4x4 Ride, and the local guide. </div><div><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiWS-BmiYooHm4RQjEytGUV-W8sbP6r6jEGc-g90OyvyD3BVHRIVoDSFXvTCyQ0sgOA7_oFHdhTmVyK9IGIdonRU3fGLBd6arSOSyBnPDKSpCJ0QlMdRczxMUvgVrFxWqfuLtP8GbsPlNciP0lvxZF_C7_64q44gTrpCciwi2IQtT_O67964V8d-GESL28/s3000/3.png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Mt.

However, I still highly suggest that you prepare for this trip especially if you don't have an active lifestyle like me. </div><div><br /></div><div><div>It's advisable to start early in the morning like what we did to avoid the midday heat and to allow ample time for exploration at the crater lake.</div></div><div><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgGN1Iso4Im7zXNp_EiPP9gTeBdEVlkfrUaTB38SElsJZaYzF6JEpXGWXJG1VKp7xyLm6KptwRSpf5Aqw-WJOjkdLFqgoN9iUxgQT9Nb4TjRvquNxDzOwJ1CtZXVnz8obV3ycSRAZnyuaHX_Cu0xp6mva8vXc0sn8ULiiZk8YuJZLI55QSv6LUUsW-L3bk/s3000/15.png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Mt.

This distance typically takes around 1.5 to 2 hours to hike, but it can vary based on factors such as individual fitness level, weather conditions, and the terrain encountered along the trail.</div><div><br /></div><div>Arriving at the jump-off point, we lace up our hiking shoes and set off on foot, following the trail that winds its way through the volcanic landscape.</div><div><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEheTcTmh7Nj_v7tABuX78h2KCkwbEX3YnJK2vG_O3eBxI-VIiYKw6opC066BF0W1cV3fUs9LBZTMQW5N-cy8Pvbpb7Uims2X7GDB37nDjYIFNm72mIZG4UGFJxFk_uMKoxl0WoiIgXuWgxXtXL-WMTyAI-M6PPK_6mGRH33gDzHdVYMwMkwupFNuNb9i58/s3000/8.png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Mt.

When you see the 500m mark, I'm telling you, you are still far from it. π But with each step, we're rewarded with glimpses of the crater lake shimmering in the distance, a tantalizing reminder of the natural wonders that await.</div><div><br /></div><div><h3>The Stations</h3></div><div>There are stations along the way to crater where the locals sells food and drinks. The last one is 500m away from the crater. Most stations have their restroom so no need to worry. However, there is a 10 pesos fee if you will use it. Unfortunately, I don't have any photos of the stations. But these are small nipa huts made by the locals and you can take a break there. </div><div><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjuko78nFlYZGvD-C4TsM23v_vpJVmV21zrgWiz9Xhk3NgFQV4LL46GhhOGP0Wzw0yiRw2meZ0vIlhEtj0Qxdhd-u2zVW91L3Y1zMspO-HE0-F0C1vd2zjiSWwzwYY8X_ags6czdzmw73H-thjrmIsV951QQBYIFr98-VcimJZ1D-PA0up466lkZh1dZ2U/s3000/34.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Mt.

I stayed there for just 30 minutes and we already went back. </div><div><br /></div><div><h3>Tips and Reminders</h3></div><div><div><b>Plan Ahead:</b> Before setting out, do some research and plan your trip accordingly. Consider factors such as weather conditions, trail difficulty, and necessary permits or fees. Prepare your body. </div><div><br /></div><div><b>Wear appropriate clothing and footwear: </b>Dress in lightweight, moisture-wicking clothing suitable for hiking. Leggings, shorts, shoes, or trekking sandals, are okay. Wear whichever you feel comfortable. Don't forget your masks, caps, or hats, as it is ashy on the 4x4 ride.</div><div><br /></div><div><b>Stay Hydrated:</b> Bring an ample supply of water to stay hydrated throughout the trek, especially in hot and humid conditions. Consider using a hydration pack or water bottles that are easy to carry. Don't bring a big one.</div><div><br /></div><div><b>Protect Yourself from the Sun: </b>Apply sunscreen generously to exposed skin and wear a wide-brimmed hat or cap to shield your face from the sun's rays. Sunglasses with UV protection are also recommended.</div><div><br /></div><div><b>Pack Essentials: </b>Bring essential items such as snacks, a first aid kit, a flashlight, a fully charged mobile phone for emergencies, and a powerbank.

Mt. Pinatubo has taught me that I'm capable of more than I ever thought possible, and for that, I'll be forever grateful.</div><div><br /></div><div>So here's to saying yes to new adventures, to embracing the unknown, and to conquering mountainsβboth literal and metaphorical. Mt. Pinatubo, you've left an indelible mark on my heart, and I can't wait to see where the next adventure takes me. Until then, keep exploring, keep dreaming, and never stop saying yes to new experiences.</div>Elainehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01222081580221568397noreply@blogger.com0Mt Pinatubo, Botolan, Zambales, Philippines15.1428768 120.3495565-13.167357036178846 85.1933065 43.453110636178849 155.5058065tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6339363403493513383.post-8982942060668647482024-01-06T22:29:00.005+08:002024-01-06T22:30:50.580+08:00Netflix Review: A Very Good Girl (2023)<p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiYHvupPRBY-4Qpidcei6TSfl5YPD98KkCiJY8Rnq1bzW0h3hZJEMJ7WwMEdtexHdWf6UXZ1ODu2l4xXAdBLfAJP7UdOX0Rvr_8WAZuBKr3m4iKuhEL1lm0w6W8gTTlB7cg9YpavqZr2IX2C6_SGmDFTsnroycozCc6h95ecAhXBiBbAr4Vhp2Aw74EPgg/s1200/a-very-good-girl03-1696226268.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><img border="0" data-original-height="675" data-original-width="1200" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiYHvupPRBY-4Qpidcei6TSfl5YPD98KkCiJY8Rnq1bzW0h3hZJEMJ7WwMEdtexHdWf6UXZ1ODu2l4xXAdBLfAJP7UdOX0Rvr_8WAZuBKr3m4iKuhEL1lm0w6W8gTTlB7cg9YpavqZr2IX2C6_SGmDFTsnroycozCc6h95ecAhXBiBbAr4Vhp2Aw74EPgg/s16000/a-very-good-girl03-1696226268.jpg" /></a><br /></p><div style="text-align: left;"><b>A Very Good Girl</b> is a 2023 Filipino dark comedy film starring Kathryn Bernardo and Dolly de Leon, two best and award-winning actresses in the Philippines.

I also got curious because revenge genre is not usual here in the Philippines and I wanna know how they carry out this movie. </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">It is a star studded movie because of the casts.

She definitely showed some skin, cursed a lot like a normal human, and proved she can do revenge genre. I think she can do kontrabida or villain roles. She really stood out on the movie. She is beautiful and she executed the character well especially as Philo. </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">I expected more of Ms. Dolly though. I mean screen time and character background! </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">As for the plot, I am not really satisfied with it. I think there are loop holes and it could've been better. Since this is a revenge movie, I expected a deeper root cause or feeling from the main character. Mercy and Philo started strong but it all went down when she lost all her funds and needed money for her family. But it's a Filipino thing, I guess? Justice and success is hard to achieve especially when you're not privileged. At least she tried? Haha.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">The ending was not what I expected and I don't know if it's a good thing or not. Haha! At least there's something that made me a little thrilled. Haha. The last part is giving a mean girls ending. I think revenge movies and series should have a complicated plot but this movie's plot is really not giving for me. </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">With everything that happened, I feel like it's giving a lesson to ponder. Even if you do revenge and succeed, it will not always be a happy ending and it's not always worth it. </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><b><span style="font-size: medium;">Rating β 8/10 </span></b></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">P.S.

At first, it doesn't sink in me because most of the casts are new to me while the ones I am familiar with have a different vibe here. </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><h4 style="text-align: left;">Park Gyu-Young as Seo A-Ri</h4><div style="text-align: left;">Seo A-Ri is the protagonist in the story. She was an ordinary woman who was dragged into the world of influencers or e-celebrities when she met Oh Min-Hye, her high school bestfriend, who is now a famous influencer. </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">I can't imagine another actress portraying Seo A-Ri better than Park Gyu-Young. This just means she portrayed it really well. This s is just my opinion though. The kdrama started with her looking ordinary and not bothered by the people around her. Then as the story progresses, her character changed dramatically and she's really good at it. She's versatile, sophisticated, and beautiful! She nailed her role as an e-celebrity being a protagonist with a revenge role. She has a different vibe when dressed for revenge. I love it! </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">I'm not sure if it's just me but I also want to mention that she resembles her mother Lee Hyeon-Ok (Nam Gi-Ae) on the livestream. If you're a fan of kdramas, you'll know Nam Gi-Ae as an antagonist and you'll understand what I mean. She's like the younger version of her. </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhc5lnioPZA4aBZTCLVkWJGpfQA_2oppbWhFYASbfD4oHeaXTe_Zox7L7acssawkIa0Ou1lddbI3ZG3MfYxaSFKUCtmZc6po38_2UccqXGXMMEhuQQsLfnMlV7r7FBT8kxMg8mSWB7zj2MD75g29uA4AHX8cA9F3dFHb7ZJ1JV-KZb8VU7H4oLHHgQtaLg/s1098/b2280dbe-5698-40d0-8a83-a0a109c3a806_c58ff3c5.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Celebrity Kdrama Netflix Review" border="0" data-original-height="732" data-original-width="1098" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhc5lnioPZA4aBZTCLVkWJGpfQA_2oppbWhFYASbfD4oHeaXTe_Zox7L7acssawkIa0Ou1lddbI3ZG3MfYxaSFKUCtmZc6po38_2UccqXGXMMEhuQQsLfnMlV7r7FBT8kxMg8mSWB7zj2MD75g29uA4AHX8cA9F3dFHb7ZJ1JV-KZb8VU7H4oLHHgQtaLg/s16000/b2280dbe-5698-40d0-8a83-a0a109c3a806_c58ff3c5.jpg" /></a></div><div><br /></div><h4 style="text-align: left;">Jun Hyo-Seong as Oh Min-Hye</h4><div style="text-align: left;">I also appreciate Jun Hyo-Seong as Oh Min-Hye. She did well getting on my nerves and she's effective as a villain in this story. Haha! I'm not kidding tho! I can see she's versatile too.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiblXIATm-K6xpVS3pfaIPcM2F365dj61diwq7BaGDbnjLqiN4qL6mdzUbG4rqEmRj54-QUksKC1rtUNszZhZJNOommrguZp2OV4OIhi4M1k2RdUh6MNdci6eprtE9Eh7IEaiw_F9-2p21Bc-uQOeMKAhaw7AziSgApNJXiOYaiHkhepviBJZOvwjv9LZ8/s2048/IMG_5049.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Celebrity Kdrama Netflix Review" border="0" data-original-height="2048" data-original-width="2048" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiblXIATm-K6xpVS3pfaIPcM2F365dj61diwq7BaGDbnjLqiN4qL6mdzUbG4rqEmRj54-QUksKC1rtUNszZhZJNOommrguZp2OV4OIhi4M1k2RdUh6MNdci6eprtE9Eh7IEaiw_F9-2p21Bc-uQOeMKAhaw7AziSgApNJXiOYaiHkhepviBJZOvwjv9LZ8/s16000/IMG_5049.JPG" /></a></div><div><br /></div><h4 style="text-align: left;">Kang Min-Hyuk as Han Jun-Kyung</h4><div style="text-align: left;">Since this is a thriller, I didn't think Seo A-ri will have a love life in the story or I thought the love interest won't push through. I thought Han Jun-Kyung and Seo A-ri are just using each other for work and fame. Also, Jun-Kyung is Yoon Si-Hyeon's ex-boyfriend. But there's something about them! I really hope they are really in love with each other. They have potential! </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">Park Gyu-Young and Kang Min-Hyuk's chemistry was on a different level though! I'm glad they had intimate scenes that prove this. </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjBj8UF7L5MbDs9v6FZZ0_LpOtxk3qVpzhKiQ0klLnvZ-RYEovpykt-K1MO4QeE7yYcNFhJJPkZrfWVluDzTT8Qvl9nlg8-sxKY8bVwmsv7t_WEW0mSBmri1MNVwY19tqQUUpD9BA1JE-BjNHePC07EIoI1lAwISDXw_eJvtuaJRe-Qnlxv8kAPBKjnnVY/s2048/F0MFTQgaIAAdayt.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Celebrity Kdrama Netflix Review" border="0" data-original-height="841" data-original-width="2048" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjBj8UF7L5MbDs9v6FZZ0_LpOtxk3qVpzhKiQ0klLnvZ-RYEovpykt-K1MO4QeE7yYcNFhJJPkZrfWVluDzTT8Qvl9nlg8-sxKY8bVwmsv7t_WEW0mSBmri1MNVwY19tqQUUpD9BA1JE-BjNHePC07EIoI1lAwISDXw_eJvtuaJRe-Qnlxv8kAPBKjnnVY/s16000/F0MFTQgaIAAdayt.jpg" /></a></div><div><br /></div><h4 style="text-align: left;">Lee Chung-Ah as Yoon Si-Hyeon</h4><div style="text-align: left;">I didn't expect Seo A-ri and Yoon Si-Hyeon's friendship at the end of the series. I had my doubts about Si-Hyeon because she's Jun-Kyung's ex-girlfriend and she got the old money vibe. You will really question her intention and personality because of her husband too. But she got the innocent look you know. She got the vibe of Shim Su-ryeon (Lee Ji-ah) of Penthouse. </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">The other cast also did a great job portraying their roles. I think it just fits them perfectly. Most of the casts are just new in the industry and I hope everyone will be given more projects as this is a breakthrough success. </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><h2 style="text-align: left;">REVIEW</h2><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">To be honest, the title was simple and not that catchy to me. I only read reviews online and got curious that's why I watched it. But as soon as I started it, I was hooked. The intro itself is catchy especially the "Come catch me" whisper making you curious about what's gonna happen.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgFHxKxL5HcS3S_vsXCXbHMLkWWwIvddDYMhp-RtfwZxIT-yvt2rjz1pDiBVFp6yLxtNcIxNGFxPZWnrIc7J-OuIYawZT9pTZQ4Phxhi1PTaPlq1vh8uZSocEPowsedS4NXhbd-cQndRr-P_z0TI7a2Hfvtke5nJrbTA72IsBrQpofvD8BWKy9OvWnPjPI/s1080/fullsizephoto1684096.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img alt="Lee Joon-Ho" border="0" data-original-height="720" data-original-width="1080" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgFHxKxL5HcS3S_vsXCXbHMLkWWwIvddDYMhp-RtfwZxIT-yvt2rjz1pDiBVFp6yLxtNcIxNGFxPZWnrIc7J-OuIYawZT9pTZQ4Phxhi1PTaPlq1vh8uZSocEPowsedS4NXhbd-cQndRr-P_z0TI7a2Hfvtke5nJrbTA72IsBrQpofvD8BWKy9OvWnPjPI/s16000/fullsizephoto1684096.jpg" /></a></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">As I've been saying, the casts are just perfect for their roles and portrayed their characters really well. The cameos of Seol In-A, Jung Eugene, Yuqi, and Lee Joon-Ho made a great impact too. </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">The story was well written. As a blogger who's gone a few times to events and met fellow bloggers and influences, I can say the story is somehow relatable. Not to this extent though. But the social ranking based on your followers is true and how it defines their status and earnings. People will be good to you and praise you when you are famous. On the other hand, as you get more followers, there will always be people who will try to bring you down. There will always be haters and people who think it is okay to comment even if it's negative.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">Not everything you see online is true. A lot of people do fake it. Haha! But nowadays, people like it realistic and authentic. The game actually has changed. Thankfully. </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">The dark scenes make it a thriller series. I always hate the part where the rich gets away with their crimes because we all know they will bury it until they die. It's a good thing the truth prevailed.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">I thought Yoon Si-Hyeon, Jin Tae-Jeon, and Oh Min-Hye are the antagonists here. It's actually bbbfamous. Aside from making them angry at each other, she's a total psycho! Sad reality, there are people who will go to that extent just to take someone down. </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">The ending was unpredictable! This makes the whole series really good! I never guessed who bbbfamous was. The ending was a smart move from Seo A-Ri. I didn't see any loopholes in the story, or maybe because I am too invested in it? Haha. </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">The ending might be open-ended with Jun Ho being on the last part. There might be a possibility of Season 2 which I am looking forward if ever. </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">CELEBRITY KDRAMA SERIES IS A HIT!! </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">You can watch it on Netflix and it is now the second top series here in the Philippines! </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">Disclaimer: Credits to the owners of the photos.

Everything about this season speaks outdoors β trips to the beach, getting in touch with nature, afternoon picnics, and outdoor camping. It signals the perfect time to bring out the fashionable summer clothes in your closet, hang out with friends, binge on in-season fruits, and bask in vibrant days knowing there are fewer possibilities of rain ruining the day. <span></span></p><a name='more'></a><p></p><p style="text-align: justify;">In tropical countries like the Philippines, there are only two seasons, the wet, which is filled with rainy days and cold nights, and the dry, which is summer.

For locals, it is the best time to book a summer trip for the whole family. </p><p style="text-align: justify;">This year, in light of easing travel restrictions, access to the outdoors is beginning to come up again.

I appreciate their advocacy in helping in their own way. I also find the Wishing Wall their staple because it's the first time I heard of it here in the Philippines. Their food is interesting as I don't think they use too many msg. I liked their Lumpong Shanghai! Their dip/sauce for it was great! Based on their price, I think it's worth it.

The wifi and mode of payment are plus points! </div></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><h3><span style="font-size: large;">SOCIAL MEDIA</span></h3></div><div style="text-align: left;"><div>Facebook: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/takaostudios.coffee">https://www.facebook.com/takaostudios.coffee</a></div><div>Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/takaostudios/">https://www.instagram.com/takaostudios/</a></div><div><br /></div></div><div style="text-align: left;"><h3><span style="font-size: large;">GOOGLE MAP</span></h3></div><div style="text-align: left;"><center><br /></center><center><iframe allowfullscreen="" height="450" loading="lazy" referrerpolicy="no-referrer-when-downgrade" src="https://www.google.com/maps/embed?pb=!1m14!1m8!1m3!1d15477.593948428012!2d120.9599379!3d14.1126474!3m2!1i1024!2i768!4f13.1!3m3!1m2!1s0x0%3A0x71f2646539867ccb!2sTakao%20Studios%20Coffee!5e0!3m2!1sen!2sph!4v1672927582552!5m2!1sen!2sph" style="border: 0;" width="600"></iframe></center></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div>Elainehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01222081580221568397noreply@blogger.com04X75+3W9, Tagaytay - Nasugbu Hwy, Silang Junction South, Tagaytay, Cavite, Philippines14.1126572 120.9598599-14.197576636178846 85.8036099 42.422891036178846 156.1161099tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6339363403493513383.post-66209033601750622132022-12-29T20:41:00.009+08:002022-12-29T20:48:28.729+08:002022: A Year In Review<p></p><div style="text-align: right;"><a href="http://elainedogelio.com" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;" target="_blank"><img border="0" data-original-height="2000" data-original-width="3000" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiZuAh_hWKsAPaJVUaqDiWvIXu_qx7v6e7y1d2Rm3rvnXv81ol03EXyV6669HiYU0KFCI9NrdhsQa2raQRaGaDlzUg2k2NUjZ0Oo68R5_9XTQx8lx3vJ-LmWGKXeabvfewFZNS_fpq77db4yoL7iIuaCbHrXRJzZDVteeHmQ-lwkrzXpUEuzYWVw-qp/s16000/2022%20(3000%20%C3%97%202000%20px)%20(1).png" /></a></div><p></p><p>I always look forward to writing my year-in-review entry. Every time I write one, I read my previous entries first. This is my 7th entry since I started this blog. Can't believe 7 years already passed and this is one of the reasons why I still keep this blog as my journal. I may not be consistent as before but I don't plan on giving up on this blog even if I already do other content on other social media platforms.<span></span></p><a name='more'></a><p></p><p>Actually, I didn't plan to write one this year because 2022 was a stressful year for me. But as I reminisce, I realized that even my small achievements and memories are still worth writing about. </p><p>In late January, Bap and his family went back to the US. And yep, I cried my heart out just in the first month of 2022. Haha! After living with him and his family for a couple of months, I finally settled back home again.</p><p>My former boss closed his clothing business. It was also the end of my four-year career as a freelance virtual assistant because I want to try full-time blogging. I was able to work with brands/resto/cafes and got busy from February to June. I stepped out of my comfort zone and started uploading more vlogs. I do voice-over vlogs now. I had a hard time adjusting to doing events while planning and publishing content to different platforms at the same time. I uploaded more videos but fewer articles here on my blog. I think I pushed myself a little hard that time and it drained me. But I was surprised some of my vlogs got views. Haha. </p><p>After all these years in blogging, I would like to thank the brands/restos/cafes/companies who worked with me in the past years and keep trusting me to do the work and collaborations. I would also like to thank the new friends I've met this year. There are actually a lot! I'm glad that blogging and content creation is booming these days.</p><p>We started a family-owned business in March and it's our Mama P's suman, a famous kakanin here in South Luzon. We take bulk orders for occasions and sometimes sell on weekends. Unfortunately, we're having a hard time when -ber months because it's the rainy season and it's hard to get banana leaves. Hopefully, when the weather gets better, we can sell our suman again. </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://elainedogelio.com" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;" target="_blank"><img border="0" data-original-height="2000" data-original-width="3000" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjbCpjGtnJ3BOgKO5T-yr8e_mnAnybU3ie4UE96VE3r0wt-5kQz-ITlxOkLKZxFtKzSYtL6wr8_Bh-2CooXgCeBq0aAZNIUJa9d4MKGTefI0fYYEZViuldsdYbkOkYHEE5aYdWoO-wVcwVqdTSzG5PiTk50IXcPw9WjDSvnSMW7mTt4LY8Mx_UGyyz3/s16000/2022%20(3000%20%C3%97%202000%20px)%20(2).png" /></a></div><p>My life as a furmom also turned into something I didn't expect. I HAVE FOUR DOGS NOW! πΆ Last year in December, I was just so proud that I was able to overcome my trauma. Now, I am obsessed with dogs! I just love them so much! I now have two female and two male dogs.</p><p>Stormy is our oldest dog and I got her ever since my aunt died. I saw her old photos and she's already seven years old. She's fury and I'm just sad we can't heal her eyes. It's always wounded. She won't let me cut her nails. Lilac is my first owned dog and she's turning two in three months. Got temperament issues just like his dad. Haha! She's having a hard time adjusting to Lucky and Max because she's not the baby anymore. Haha.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://elainedogelio.com" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;" target="_blank"><img border="0" data-original-height="2000" data-original-width="3000" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiqy5hrLERoPuAzefviohQf6-fR5s2AapgLm2MUOVa5R50ICR5otttqjFSGB3uRT_Y6NJLf3tZNvmJfM7_1Bq0UCWzrUOFIk1BwsTXCYpwjDMmX5-zQ1CFo2u-IKlOxMg4ivXCPIrffq8PR5ddcWrhJPZK6YtSCU8yxIRPb4mXJKYMniwlj8qwlhMme/s16000/2022%20(3000%20%C3%97%202000%20px)%20(3).png" /></a></div><p>In March, I was able to rescue and adopt Lucky, an aspin we found in our street. He had severe mange and is malnourished when we got him. He got a limp on one of his back legs because his previous owner or someone in their area ran over him. It wasn't corrected because it was already healed when we got him. Our neighbors told me that he was previously owned by our neighbor who abused and neglected him. I actually plan on getting another dog but I wanted a small one like shitzu but didn't have the budget yet. But God has other plans. Lucky was sent to me and it was one of the best things that ever happened to us this year. My friends donated so I can bring him to the vet. Mama was against it at first but she learned to love him afterward. After his skin healed, he turned out to be a handsome doggo. He gained weight. He is appreciative and intelligent. Lilac had a hard time adjusting because she used to be an only kid and she use force to play. Haha!</p><p>Since he's the one smaller, I was able to bring him out to cafes with me. Though he's kinda reactive to other dogs. Sometimes, people judge him because of his appearance but I don't care at all. I'm proud of him for surviving and he deserves the world. I posted a Tiktok of his transformation and it went viral. My Tiktok account is now for my doggos and me as a furmom. </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://elainedogelio.com" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;" target="_blank"><img border="0" data-original-height="2000" data-original-width="3000" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhTGd9PpNjaLGx5XDlMGysqfRJ5FR4PaJViOv5zESBOSly1i0d8nfqSvIxlBSnO3KZF7RN6jLXxsPC3GJqfOxtBV8xErYeLVomi0fGTdQSz7t7Ikt7LUdDzy8SeR-luMIlnQmfN0ri5-7PYsTj1vYlpM2OkwKEOh3FD3QxzOFfoaXx80ZlhExsoIMD7/s16000/2022%20(3000%20%C3%97%202000%20px)%20(5).png" /></a></div><p>We adopted another aspin in July and he's name is Max. He's now 6 months old. As a puppy, he's a naughty and playful one but an introvert. Haha. He's a big boy! I didn't expect Lucky to adjust easily as he's reactive to other dogs. Lucky has a lot of patience to play with Max and deal with his unlimited energy. My Lucky boy is such a good brother to him. </p><p>I document my life as a furmom on my TikTok account. I never expect to have a thousand views on that account, especially for people to notice my dogs.

I had issues with the lessor on my rental space. We had quite a few sessions with the barangay officials and it's still not settled yet until now. I was able to retrieve my space and I turned it to my store. It's a big risk and step for me as I am actually not prepared but I know God will provide. I hope that the business I opened will flourish and grow in the upcoming year. </p><p>I started my new business in October. I opened a printing and school supplies shop since we're just near schools. School supplies shop was also my business before the pandemic. I still have some stocks so I thought why not just continue it. I added a printing service. In the next month, I was able to add a few stocks of food snacks and other merchandise. The progress is slow, I know, but I don't have a team yet and I do everything all by myself. It's pure hard work and it's so satisfying to see that I started from scratch and it looks more like a store now. Haha! I still got a long way to go and baby steps but at least I can see it moving.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.elainedogelio.com/" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;" target="_blank"><img border="0" data-original-height="2000" data-original-width="3000" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgOfisfFlD8wWC_Oe05BBFV3QzfyaYDBC_ZYw_AMU3a-w8T3N-j2bzDD50jPRYIWVE8kcqSIjqN8lE95VlJVYmw8J1YViy2rZ4pPyfo8pndB-KrTMQbU6G6BUDzVUwtjFaC_ARYIH9MAHXyGFBym0LWRDVHXUY2aH4tBl8MVZkbmogS3vlUnEC8tIjM/s16000/2022%20(3000%20%C3%97%202000%20px)%20(6).png" /></a></div><p>It's another upside-down year but I'm looking forward to a better year in 2023. I'm thankful for the experiences and memories I made with different people which made me into the person I am today. I always love it when I feel like I'm ending the year as a different person. It means I grew, learned, and matured. As we should! π</p><p>Thank you for everything, 2022.

But again, for me, I like it that way. Hehe! What surprised me was their menu because it is just a small kiosk but they have a selection of hot or iced coffee. They also have revel bars that you can pair with your coffee. For non-coffee, they have tea and hot chocolate. </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />I like everything that we had and we also had a great time. But what stands out most to me is their Honey Cafe Latte. Iced or hot is both good. The iced was just stronger while the hot one has a creamier taste.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />Overall, itβs a cafe I recommend! π― The coffee is soo good we were able to almost finish what we ordered.

Or are you someone who wants to be more advanced in Home DIY? Or maybe are you someone who handles everything from little repairs to significant home improvements? No matter what your predicament is, itβs best to have a well-stocked home tool kit. <span><a name='more'></a></span></div><div><br /></div><div>This <b>AllHomeβs Guide</b> explains the top tools for your home tool kit to help you find the correct ones you might need in your Home DIY project. While you donβt have to buy every tool on this list right now, itβs a good idea to keep this list handy and gradually add these tools to your collection since you wonβt have much luck removing a stubborn stake, tightening a loose bolt, or correcting a wobbly shelf if you donβt have the necessary tools on hand.</div></div><div><br /></div><h4 style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Cordless Drill</span></h4><div>All tools have their advantages. Thereβs a reason this cordless drill is at the top of our power tools list, especially whether youβre working on a large-scale renovation or youβre on a professional level. These drills are generally battery-powered, making them extremely portable. Theyβre also strong and capable enough to drive screws into a wall, thicker materials like wood boards, or other difficult surfaces. Theyβre used in a variety of tasks β from building a cabinet to hanging shelves There are also corded choices as well, but they are not as portable as their cordless counterparts.</div><div><br /></div><h4 style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Nail Gun</span></h4><div>Nail guns are considerably a good alternative to hammers and may be used for any project that requires nails. It is easier to install a crown molding when you can shoot instead of hammering the nails. When youβre on a ladder, this dependable nail gun is easy to carry on your tool belt. The majority of them rely on compressed air, however there are also electric variants available. Depending on the size of the nail you need to use, there are several different types of nail guns. Thereβs no reason not to have one on hand because theyβre actually affordable.</div><div><br /></div><h4 style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Angle Grinder</span></h4><div>Angle grinders can grind, cut, and polish a wide range of materials. Theyβre even capable of slicing through steel and tile. Some are driven by compressed air, which necessitates the use of an air compressor, while others are powered by electricity or gasoline. Angle grinders are distinguished from other grinders by their 90Β° angle. This allows you to access areas that you would not normally be able to access. It also reduces some of the side pressures produced by other grinders. </div><div><br /></div><h4 style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Chop Saw</span></h4><div>A Chop saw is not as popular as some of the other tools on this list. However, they are still available for purchase. It features a blade that cuts at a 90Β° angle and is perpendicular to the table. They do not swivel like a miter saw. Because of their large cutting capacity, they may be used for home construction and framing. However, because they can only cut at one angle, they arenβt extremely adaptable.</div><div><br /></div><h4 style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Sheet Sander</span></h4><div>The sheet sander is used to smooth wooden or curved surfaces and sand between coats of varnish that are difficult to sand with larger, more powerful sanding tools. While electric sanders are ideal for large jobs, hand sanders are a better choice if you need to achieve exceptional precision.</div><div><br /></div><h4 style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Level</span></h4><div>It is necessary to have a level to check if a surface is horizontal (level) or vertical (plumb) if youβre doing home DIY. The commonly used level is a spirit level which contains a vial of ethanol. If youβre looking for a more advanced kind then itβs time to leave the chalk-line dust behind. With the click of a button on a laser level, you can instantly set plumb and level lines while assembling kitchen cabinets and bookshelves easily.</div><div><br /></div><h4 style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Rotary Hammer Drill</span></h4><div>Hardened concrete is no match for the power of rotary hammer drills. They may also be fitted with all kinds of other attachments. There are various chisels that are available for scaling metal, breaking concrete, removing tiles, and even digging hard soil with a rotary hammer drill. Because it comes with hundreds of accessories and attachments, you may use it for nearly any home DIY project. Theyβre a compact power tool equipped with a high performance 800W motor for powerful and fast-spinning rotary tips. Sanding, cutting bevels, polishing, etching, and even dazzling metal surfaces are all made possible with this handy tool.</div><div><br /></div><h4 style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Vacuum</span></h4><div>In most cases, a wet & dry vacuum will be required in the workshop. Unlike other vacuum cleaners, a wet & dry can clear up large amounts of dirt, wood fragments, and debris. These vacuums come in a variety of sizes and capacities. Because these vacuums donβt have belts or moving brushes, theyβre more resilient and heavy-duty than your typical household vacuum. They can be handy in a number of scenarios. Even if you donβt do much DIY work, we think that everyone should have a wet & dry vacuum.</div><div><br /></div><div>These are the tools that will never disappoint you. Also, it makes the common home maintenance work easier. These bad boys, like everything else in your collection, are top notch. That is why AllHome recommends that most homeowners keep them stored, so youβre ready whenever any repair is needed.</div><div><br /></div><div><div>To shop for homeware products, visit <b>AllHome</b> for its wide selection of homeware, furniture, appliances, and more.

The Ilocano and Filipino dishes that we've tried are really good and I can definitely recommend them to you. It might be a little pricey too but the serving is big and enough for groups. The ambiance is a plus. It's really beautiful and relaxing at the same time. Their staff is friendly and attentive. The serving time might take a little longer.</div><div><br /></div><div>You may read my review and experience of the Abagatan ti Manila Hotel here: <a href="https://www.elainedogelio.com/2022/08/abagatan-ti-manila-hotel-alfonso-cavite.html">https://www.elainedogelio.com/2022/08/abagatan-ti-manila-hotel-alfonso-cavite.html</a></div><h3 style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">SUMMARY</span></h3><div><div>π΄ Filipino & Ilocano Food</div><div>π΄ Pizza, Pasta, and Sandwiches</div><div>β Juices, brewed coffee, hot chocolate, wine, beer, and other liquors</div><div>π° Price range: Quite expensive</div><div>π Parking Space available</div><div>β

My roomie was <b><a href="https://www.facebook.com/sincerelyericka" target="_blank">SincerelyEricka</a></b> at the <b>Executive Suite</b>. While Raine of <b><a href="https://www.facebook.com/lowkeylakwatsera" target="_blank">Lowkey Lakwatsera</a></b> stayed at the <b>Premier Suite</b>. We had a great time especially our dinner at the Garden Restaurant and the pool! When we arrived there, the weather was actually gloomy. It even rained that night. But the next day, it was a sunny day so we were able to swim at the pool. The room was pretty expensive. But to be honest, it feels premium. I slept well and woke up the next day excited and happy.</div><div><br /></div><div>The hotel is just a few minutes away from Twin Lakes and Tagaytay. You can stroll around Alfonso, Cavite too because there are new establishments and tourists spots there too. </div><div><div><br /></div><div>I love how the hotel is modern and it is very close to nature. Just a reminder that since there is a body of water and there are a lot of plants, make sure to bring your mosquito repellant. </div><div><br /></div><div>Overall, we had a great experience and it is something I can recommend especially if you have the budget. You can also check out them as an events place if you're looking for a wedding or events venue. Even if you're not hotel guests, you can dine at Kap'ean and Garden Restaurant.</div></div></div><div><br /></div><h3 style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">WHERE TO BOOK</span></h3><div><a href="https://www.abagatanhotels.com/">abagatanhotels.com</a></div><div><br /></div><h3 style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">SOCIAL MEDIA</span></h3><div>Facebook: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/abagatanhotels">facebook.com/abagatanhotels</a></div><div>Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/abagatantimanila/">instagram.com/abagatantimanila</a></div><div><br /></div><h3 style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">CONTACT DETAILS</span></h3><div>π² 09178010205 | 09209577351 | 09178554446</div><div><div>π§ reservations@abagatanhotels.com</div></div><div><br /></div><h3 style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">GOOGLE MAP</span></h3><div><center><iframe allowfullscreen="" height="450" loading="lazy" referrerpolicy="no-referrer-when-downgrade" src="https://www.google.com/maps/embed?pb=!1m14!1m8!1m3!1d3869.9570629763625!2d120.845749!3d14.079712!3m2!1i1024!2i768!4f13.1!3m3!1m2!1s0x0%3A0x81b2d11c9a8a9a22!2sAbagatan%20Ti%20Manila!5e0!3m2!1sen!2sus!4v1660201501241!5m2!1sen!2sus" style="border: 0;" width="600"></iframe></center></div>Elainehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01222081580221568397noreply@blogger.com0Amuyong-Kaytitinga Road, Alfonso, 4120 Cavite, Philippines14.0797118 120.8457485-14.230522036178845 85.6894985 42.389945636178844 156.0019985tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6339363403493513383.post-49744708376496355302022-07-30T21:25:00.002+08:002022-08-14T10:50:47.248+08:00Enjoy Filipino Food and the Overlooking View of Taal Lake at Lawa Cafe<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEipRz7notmZFZxp-QeMsDac9TA7pVVTziftFiQsvHH0slG92wH6RbLqi5CBUKrxumF4w1ZpRvvZ8_EJC1jnqTFQ_I4O3hQhHBLk0IT3c-JMZS9Yl8vpxBxVRzeiovzctVxRLS6NVehHSUSZ-qsNeG7bXqVwWe_LfR15no1o7JvUmC9jU8itJt9EY-KZ/s1500/19.png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Enjoy Filipino Food and the Overlooking View of Taal Lake at Lawa Cafe" border="0" data-original-height="1000" data-original-width="1500" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEipRz7notmZFZxp-QeMsDac9TA7pVVTziftFiQsvHH0slG92wH6RbLqi5CBUKrxumF4w1ZpRvvZ8_EJC1jnqTFQ_I4O3hQhHBLk0IT3c-JMZS9Yl8vpxBxVRzeiovzctVxRLS6NVehHSUSZ-qsNeG7bXqVwWe_LfR15no1o7JvUmC9jU8itJt9EY-KZ/s16000/19.png" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Looking for a cafe that serves Filipino food with the perfect view of Taal Lake?

Haha! Their coffee and cakes are pricey though. But you're sure to get quality food. The price range is 300-500 pesos per person. Honestly, the roof deck was a nice place to chill. I ate my order there but it suddenly rained. With this, I might say this cafe is best for to-go coffee and cakes. </div><div><br /></div><h3 style="text-align: left;">SOCIAL MEDIA</h3><div>Facebook: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/brewandbakescafe">https://www.facebook.com/brewandbakescafe</a></div><div>Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/brewandbakescafe/">https://www.instagram.com/brewandbakescafe/</a></div><div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">GOOGLE MAP</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><center><iframe allowfullscreen="" height="450" loading="lazy" referrerpolicy="no-referrer-when-downgrade" src="https://www.google.com/maps/embed?pb=!1m14!1m8!1m3!1d15475.150647865643!2d120.9933013!3d14.1485776!3m2!1i1024!2i768!4f13.1!3m3!1m2!1s0x0%3A0xaa12b047093068b9!2sBrew%20%26%20Bakes%20Cafe!5e0!3m2!1sen!2sph!4v1656832501919!5m2!1sen!2sph" style="border: 0;" width="600"></iframe></center></div></div>Elainehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01222081580221568397noreply@blogger.com07267 B-2-A-1 LT, Santa Rosa - Tagaytay Rd, Silang, 4120 Cavite, Philippines14.1485776 120.9933013-14.161656236178846 85.8370513 42.458811436178848 156.14955129999998tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6339363403493513383.post-77898137427450204502022-06-25T21:31:00.001+08:002022-06-28T21:35:58.129+08:00Samsung Brings City Nights to Life in This New Galaxy S22 Tiktok Challenge<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhB028B8QlBMscW5lG_pTt2SG7br9d368CQj2wiGaT0Oyv3bY5RGJWN4AvieHWt1PWhOjgZHsxwG368NNko3_5kzQn8mimYl-rBXrqTKvw-KUXJ5H5hkb1F36KHKSQmYv3wO8sv2uBMQqA5dNceFyG_1qPC2CQ5GrcjDyzqJljuPHXU2VwYwMYWV83O/s8858/06132022_TIKTOK_1P.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="8858" data-original-width="5906" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhB028B8QlBMscW5lG_pTt2SG7br9d368CQj2wiGaT0Oyv3bY5RGJWN4AvieHWt1PWhOjgZHsxwG368NNko3_5kzQn8mimYl-rBXrqTKvw-KUXJ5H5hkb1F36KHKSQmYv3wO8sv2uBMQqA5dNceFyG_1qPC2CQ5GrcjDyzqJljuPHXU2VwYwMYWV83O/s16000/06132022_TIKTOK_1P.jpg" /></a></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><div>There are countless epic adventures that can only be documented at night.

It was really good. I think it was a perfect pair for the drink I ordered which is <b>American Chocolate π€</b>. It was priced at <i>295 pesos</i>. The American Chocolate was too strong for me but it tastes sweet. It was too hot when they served it and it burned my tongue a little.</div><div><br /></div><h3 style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">THE VERDICT</span></h3><div>I know Crosswinds has their target market and they priced their menu for a reason. Being the most expensive cafe I've ever been to, the experience was great, especially the view and ambiance. It was phenomenal as always. However, this kind of cafe will not be your go-to but just for the experience. Well, at least for me, and us in the middle and lower class. Spending 1,000-2,000 pesos for a cafe (and it's just for 1-2 pax) is not practical. The food is good but there's nothing really extraordinary and you can find alternatives at other cafes and restaurants. This is just my point of view as a resident of Tagaytay. By the way, many may find the voucher shocking but it's actually just okay because you will be spending more than 400 pesos. </div><div><br /></div><div>But for tourists, you can definitely add this to your itinerary for the experience. It is best to go here via private vehicle. The whole area is astonishingly beautiful. Take a lot of photos and videos! You can have other options too like Coffee Project, Cafe Voila, Ruined Project, Napa, Yama Cafe (Japanese), and Joe Tavern (Dear Joe). All are expensive btw. π
</div><div><br /></div><div>I read online that they may not be 100% pet-friendly because they only allow small breeds. I think this is for all of their commercial establishments. </div><div><br /></div><h3 style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">SOCIAL MEDIA</span></h3><div>Facebook: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/windmillphl/">facebook.com/windmillphl/menu</a></div><div>Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/windmillphl/">instagram.com/windmillphl/</a></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><h3 style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">GOOGLE MAP</span></h3><div><br /></div><div><center><iframe allowfullscreen="" height="450" loading="lazy" referrerpolicy="no-referrer-when-downgrade" src="https://www.google.com/maps/embed?pb=!1m14!1m8!1m3!1d15475.595632125416!2d121.0079091!3d14.1420405!3m2!1i1024!2i768!4f13.1!3m3!1m2!1s0x0%3A0xd55a32811f6c9dfc!2sWindmill%20Lausanne!5e0!3m2!1sen!2sph!4v1654957083764!5m2!1sen!2sph" style="border: 0;" width="600"></iframe></center></div><div><br /></div>Elainehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01222081580221568397noreply@blogger.com0Brgy Iruhin, Tagaytay, 4120 Cavite, Philippines14.1376981 121.0055553-14.172535736178846 85.8493053 42.447931936178847 156.1618053tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6339363403493513383.post-39624494694796783482022-06-10T14:59:00.001+08:002022-06-10T14:59:15.433+08:00Monstera Cafe: A Peaceful Garden Cafe in Silang, Cavite<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjb7axTIyvTXoqPhFjOWXrFLutEmEXGAvdZphmuNNktRWjzSmcMydJPBGTojEBPd0QKCJiBa6ZoZBgBilrzxXLcxvGMA17Hd9DhJXUapnSEwqCz_5R6HiG0rXd6EJSOGQ_CTFZZ02YdcavFcBO5vF47f94b0CLZHQARwg-ox5V11e--MDiSGvIFdU3e/s1500/1.png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Monstera Cafe, Silang, Cavite" border="0" data-original-height="1000" data-original-width="1500" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjb7axTIyvTXoqPhFjOWXrFLutEmEXGAvdZphmuNNktRWjzSmcMydJPBGTojEBPd0QKCJiBa6ZoZBgBilrzxXLcxvGMA17Hd9DhJXUapnSEwqCz_5R6HiG0rXd6EJSOGQ_CTFZZ02YdcavFcBO5vF47f94b0CLZHQARwg-ox5V11e--MDiSGvIFdU3e/s16000/1.png" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Did you know there's a <b>plant-themed cafe π </b>in Silang, Cavite and they actually sell rare plants? <b>MONSTERA CAFE πΏ </b>will give you a peaceful and relaxing ambiance away from the city. <span><a name='more'></a></span></div><div><br /></div><h2 style="text-align: center;"><b style="background-color: #93c47d;"><span style="font-size: x-large;">MONSTERA CAFE</span></b></h2><div style="text-align: center;">π3994 F Purok 4, Brgy, Malaking Tatiao, Silang, Cavite</div><div><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhrFkytE5cCqcDxhnLLt_LC58uCzGjuejlIrGoSo8LzXA0mKSptR0m0Q0kXcKpm8eRCNBYAIqOB_Rv-I28vqpXqXW6CP1o4nyXpHFhpun-kP80IZVjjUuQi1IxqvawQ9PpiLsg11G6ZTCBzCZ13iuvpWRy3vucVmP-6PJHlK2PvsGw8eEn1pRK4jHVh/s2000/21.png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Monstera Cafe, Silang, Cavite" border="0" data-original-height="2000" data-original-width="1500" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhrFkytE5cCqcDxhnLLt_LC58uCzGjuejlIrGoSo8LzXA0mKSptR0m0Q0kXcKpm8eRCNBYAIqOB_Rv-I28vqpXqXW6CP1o4nyXpHFhpun-kP80IZVjjUuQi1IxqvawQ9PpiLsg11G6ZTCBzCZ13iuvpWRy3vucVmP-6PJHlK2PvsGw8eEn1pRK4jHVh/s16000/21.png" /></a></div><div><br /></div><h3 style="text-align: left;"><b><span style="font-size: large;">THE PLACE & AMBIANCE</span></b></h3><div>Monstera Cafe's location is in a rural area in Silang.

Their staff was friendly and accommodating. It is a very nice place to chill and unwind for a while. Since we were the only ones there, I appreciate the peaceful ambiance away from the busy streets. It must also be nice here at night. I just wish they play slow music here when there's no live band or on their ordinary days. Their live band plays here on Wednesdays. </div><div><br /></div><div>As for the food, my favorite is the Spicy Salted Egg Chicken and the Monstera Burger. For the drinks, I like the Hot Caramel Macchiato and the frappe one. The price is reasonable because of the huge serving. The other foods can still be improved but it's not that bad. </div><div><br /></div><div>Going here via public transportation might be a little hassle but it will all be worth it. We used Waze/Google Map when we went here and I am also aware of the place so we didn't get lost along the way.

It's <i>very unique</i>. The price here is <u>mid-range for food</u> but <u>pretty expensive for the drinks</u>. I appreciate that they have a lot of choices on their menu. The food and drinks that we ordered are <i>just okay for me</i>. The drinks I ordered are their best sellers though. Maybe it's also my choice of food. But overall, we had <b>a great experience</b> here. But there's still room for improvements. They were not responsive on their socials when the time I messaged them. I hope they do now.</div><div><br /></div><div><h4><span style="font-size: medium;">STORE HOURS</span></h4></div><div><div>Monday - Friday: 10 am - 8 pm</div><div>Saturday & Sunday: 10 am - 8 pm </div></div><div>* May vary depending on the alert level of the pandemic. </div><div><h4><span style="font-size: medium;">SUMMARY</span></h4></div><div>β

The price here is kinda reasonable considering they are beachfront and the quality of their food is also one of a kind. You can also work here as they have free wifi.

Here's a recommendation from me! I was able to try The Sunny Side Cafe when we went to Boracay last November 2021. It's a beachfront cafe that serves all-day breakfast and specialty coffee.<span><a name='more'></a></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><h3 style="text-align: center;"><b>π The Sunny Side Cafe, Station 3, Boracay Island, Malay, Aklan</b></h3><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgAX249cR-2eYy_3IvNUnBYVIP0W2tpz0yU4eZwd0E3bOEets98UEDVpHpghT-kb7APJZ4bxR9kTnUxdE75kEZDtwI8N1D82g_uimu25TmX8svzgcQ0WEzvsyfQAF23wGvoRb69CpSlh9WHk0ktJMgJcy2mklvceaC2modIeMVg93TjH2_VLjU1cJQl/s1500/1.png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="The Sunny Side Cafe Station 3 Boracay" border="0" data-original-height="1000" data-original-width="1500" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgAX249cR-2eYy_3IvNUnBYVIP0W2tpz0yU4eZwd0E3bOEets98UEDVpHpghT-kb7APJZ4bxR9kTnUxdE75kEZDtwI8N1D82g_uimu25TmX8svzgcQ0WEzvsyfQAF23wGvoRb69CpSlh9WHk0ktJMgJcy2mklvceaC2modIeMVg93TjH2_VLjU1cJQl/s16000/1.png" /></a></div><br /><div style="text-align: left;">I saw The Sunny Side Cafe on our 3rd day in Boracay when we passed by it after our day tour. I was actually surprised that it's just a 5-minute walk from La Carmela Hotel, the hotel where we stayed at. We were so tired from the day tour so Joseph and I just decided to eat here the next day for lunch. </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">It was ber month but it was a warm day. The cafe has a Western vibe and is very chic. You can also feel that it's expensive here. Haha. But it's so worth it! The place is not jam-packed when we got there. Probably because it's too hot that other people don't want to go out yet. </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjBIUkHcl3SaxuBhqFRWPti0144Bi_cay68gOXXMe-tWVOq3FhpPfpPJ76ZcyBRlH6b29UTsc0cjd2tKIXxU9XuDbsF-rWEJLuYnD70-DXZDNmEmDKNhQ7USvR7b7jB6NyMJJnr_R6jumF-yfVWEVkci-7bePWjHCkvvEaa17MbNd2cqzaQ5BO5gAA8/s1500/2.png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="The Sunny Side Cafe Station 3 Boracay" border="0" data-original-height="1000" data-original-width="1500" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjBIUkHcl3SaxuBhqFRWPti0144Bi_cay68gOXXMe-tWVOq3FhpPfpPJ76ZcyBRlH6b29UTsc0cjd2tKIXxU9XuDbsF-rWEJLuYnD70-DXZDNmEmDKNhQ7USvR7b7jB6NyMJJnr_R6jumF-yfVWEVkci-7bePWjHCkvvEaa17MbNd2cqzaQ5BO5gAA8/s16000/2.png" /></a></div><div><br /></div>Boracay was so peaceful last November 2022. They were greatly affected by the pandemic and a lot of establishments were still closed at that time. There were just a few tourists on the island because RTPCR tests are still a requirement, unlike today. <br /><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">The cafe is located at the building of Boracay Sands Hotel. I think they also have a branch in Station X (Supermagic Burgers) and D'mall (Spice Bird). Each has a different menu and best sellers. </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgXkV0w8ASpMeDvcFF8SZ7X9ZuYuPWdOh8NzJ0vn3vU0r4b91YlkFCRmCmSPTu5CQnbf-rNegxlP_72KjQEhVxFM8Hk2FRepiZlEc_3uDA0dRQc-3u5XOquhD_4I-rLT9iqiMBTESwWQVIqIyBTUxhL2SDbduJbk7rDL6FJCMNwZwmRoM2UppxaJrrL/s1500/3.png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="The Sunny Side Cafe Station 3 Boracay" border="0" data-original-height="1000" data-original-width="1500" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgXkV0w8ASpMeDvcFF8SZ7X9ZuYuPWdOh8NzJ0vn3vU0r4b91YlkFCRmCmSPTu5CQnbf-rNegxlP_72KjQEhVxFM8Hk2FRepiZlEc_3uDA0dRQc-3u5XOquhD_4I-rLT9iqiMBTESwWQVIqIyBTUxhL2SDbduJbk7rDL6FJCMNwZwmRoM2UppxaJrrL/s16000/3.png" /></a></div><br /><div style="text-align: left;">This is what the cafe looks like inside.

Most restaurants and cafes here are actually expensive. The food here is worth it and they have a lot of healthy meals and all-day breakfast on their menu. The cafe is also aesthetic and clean.

I guess it's also a nice workplace on the island.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">If I'll be in Boracay again, I'd definitely go back here to try their pancakes.
