Hulugan Falls, Laguna

Hulugan Falls is by far our favourite waterfall in Laguna. The drive is a little long so leave early. Pack a picnic, your swimmers and be prepared for a short but reasonably challenging hike, and get down there. The kids loved it, managed the rocky climb with ease and now they keep asking to go back. You get to drink cool clean water straight off the mountain! Seriously why are you waiting?

Biak Na Bato National Park, Bulacan

It was an unexpected find, but Biak na Bato National Park in Bulacan is well worth the travel. Pack your bathers, a picnic and sunblock and come and enjoy the serenity.

Mount Makiling

Since the start I have been drawn to her, to Mount Makiling. Finally we were going to visit her. It was Adventure Saturday and we went to the Mount Makiling Botanical Gardens. I was hoping I would get to meet Maria the heartbroken fairy.

Market Girl

Saturday was so much fun. We went off to explore two favourite markets of mine. The Katipunan Weekend Market and the Greenhills Weekend Market. If you are in Manila, check them out.

Paco Park, Manila

One day I packed up the children and discovered Paco Park. An ancient secret hidden away, not even the taxi driver knew where to find it.
