New Sneakers, Suburban Escapes and a Long Central Park Run
Early last week, I mapped out a plan to run a particular number of miles each day to both get rid of the plague and to train for my upcoming race in D.C. Now, Sunday night, as I sit here reflecting on the past two days, my muscles melting into the couch, I can honestly say: mission accomplished.
I got off to a slow start on Saturday morning.
Swimming in a Cenote

One of the highlights of our 2009 trip to Riviera Maya was the excursion to Chichen Itza followed by a visit to Ikil Cenote. More on Chichen Itza another time (as one of the New Seven Wonders of the World, it certainly warrants its own post). Today I’ll focus on the cenote.
After touring the ruins all day in the sweltering, unrelenting sun, our group stopped at Ikil Cenote (translation: “Sacred Blue Cenote”).
Ten things I`ve learnt from being a WordPress blogger
I’ve been blogging for a little over two years now. You would think I would have been a best-selling author and have publishing houses begging for my signature on book deals by now. But alas… it’s been a slow journey. I have no complaints though. While my personal life has seen better days in the past few years, blogging has been like the first sip of morning coffee.
A Day in the City
I can’t even begin to count how many times I’ve traveled downtown and wished to have a camera. Portland is really one of the most beautiful cities in the world. Granted, I don’t have much experience anywhere else, heck I’ve barely seen Seattle, but I do know we live in a one of a kind lush city and I’m pretty much in love with it.
On The Social Pressures of a Comedy-Obsessed Generation
In last week’s issue of New York Magazine, writer Jason Zengerle compared the music-centric Generation X with the comedy-centric Millennials (that’s what we’re calling the current crop of young adults, apparently) in “Tyranny of Yuks.” Whereas Gen-X poster boy, High Fidelity‘s Rob Fleming revealed that “What really matters is what you like, not what you are like,” we Millennials have upped the stakes with our commitment to comedy, changing the credo to “What really matters is what you like…
Paragliding Ölüdeniz
Surely running a paragliding business out of a resort town with a name that translates to Sea of the Dead, would have to be a bad omen? From the ~2000m summit of Babadağ I took a leap of faith, content to either fly like a bird or a stone down to the turquoise Blue Lagoon. Luckily for me, I flew like the avian former.
For the Love of Flora
I’m a budding plant enthusiast. So when exhibits and events such as the annual Flora Filipina that cater to such audience, I should never let it pass.
Being a tropical country where there is quite a bipolar weather- either too hot, humid, or tropical monsoon washes the landscape, tropical flora has well adapted to these conditions. As such, tropical plants are sturdier, and very beautiful indeed.

Observing Europe - Part II (Luxembourg)
Luxembourg is often considered the stuff from fairy tales, with the abundant castles, the picturesque valleys and the romantic atmosphere infecting everyone that steps foot into the tiny country. I almost cried when my dad causally brought up that we should just skip Luxembourg and head straight to Germany.
it was love at the first sight
Sunday is probably the worst days to travel in Europe since everything is closed.
