My new Tattoo!!!

Wow today was certainly crazy!!! Having enjoyed our new frinds company last night, they persuaded us to go to White Beach with them for a pizza... To get there I had to overcome my phobia of going on a motorbike ever since falling off my own 5 years ago, and jump on the back of one of theirs,...

La Luz - Batangas

Off with the citisurfers! Crowded almost 10 people in 1 room but we experienced VIP cabanas and VIP tours to some exclusive areas. I also got a massage here. Buffet for 1,000 per person.

Batangas

Batangas is one of the most visited provinces in Luzon. People who want to have quick access to the beach from Manila travel to this exciting province. This is ideal for people who have short and valuable vacation time to spare. If you are in the area, I would highly recommend you to visit...

Ferry to Mindoro

It was short easy leg from the SLEX exit to the Star Toll entrance. The Star Toll was light and the drive was smooth all the way past the usual Lipa exit and onto the Batangas terminus. The stretch past Lipa is considerable and seems to go on forever is unaccustomed. After paying the toll you...

Santo Tomas

The traffic on the road between the SLEX exit and the entrance to the Star Toll was likewise light. The stretch is about 5 kilometers. I always have to keep an eye out for the sign to turn right onto the Star Toll. The signs are posted immediately before the turnoff and easy to miss if you...

Cuenca

You will now be in the outskirts of Lipa but the traffic will still be heavy as the area is very populated and primarily commercial. You will pass the Basa Air Force base on your right. Keep an eye out again for a right turn going to Cuenca. Again, the sign post is immediately before the turn...

Taal

The road turned out to be relatively good with only a short span unpaved. It passed numerous chicken farms and orchards. Fortunately it was not raining because there was a river crossing. The road was very narrow specially the stretches deeply carved out of the adobe hills. It was with a...

Sampaguita Beach

Whenever I visited the Philippines, I would always visit its beaches. There was one particular beach located South of Luzon in Batangas, that was simple yet beautiful. They called this the Sampaguita Beach, with its letters painted on wood..something you would normally see in sari-sari stores, a...

Punta Fuego

A very relaxing beach would be preferred, especially if it was only two hours away from the city. This makes Punta Fuego an ideal escape. Punta Fuego which means Point of Fire, consists of an 88-hectare exclusive residential resort in Nasugbu, Batangas. It can be accessed by car via the...
