A bucket list is a list of things to do, adventures you want to experience and dreams you want to achieve and accomplish before you die. But why is it called “BUCKET LIST”? Why not Life List or something in this effect? It was coined from a common English phrase ‘to kick the bucket’ which means to die. We live our lives day to day, doing our same routine and before you know it we are on the end of the finish line. We would look back on the opportunities missed and things you wish you have done. You would realize there are some things you would have wanted to experience but you might not be able to any longer, maybe due to time, or old age or health concerns. More of the common bucket lists would be to travel the world, conquer your fear, do an extreme sport or maybe even just talk to the one that got away or your ultimate crush. How about you? Do you have your own bucket list? If you do, please share it with us. Let us know what are the things that you aspire to achieve and those d...
Day deux and I woke up early to greet the sunrise in this amazing island, my island tour was not until 10 am but I went to the meet up place an hour and a half early so I can get some java fix before the trip. I was a lone traveller so I signed up for this group tour in Bravo Resort. They organize island tours for solo travellers (as well as groups) which I think is a great way to introduce the island and meet new people, without the need of emptying your pockets to hire a whole boat just for one person or two. While waiting I enjoyed a glass of iced latte with a bamboo straw, props to creativity and environmentally friendliness! Fast forward a few minutes and we are in the middle of the Gatorade Blue waters of Siargao excited to set foot on our first island. There I was surrounded by different nationalities and various languages intermingling with excitement above the loud banka motor. Then it was time for our first stop: NAKED ISLAND! Naked Island is not...
Sydney. This city has long been my favorite visited place ever. From its perfectly weird weather to its laid back crowd, countless beaches, active lifestyle loving people forcing one to be healthy, and most of all their coffee culture is like no other - a coffee lover's dream destination. It's been exactly 15 years to the day since my last visit, I was a naive innocent fresh graduate seeing the world with wonder and amazement, first time to be let lose and excited for the possibilities. And here I am now, in my mid 30s juggling duties and responsibilities with a lot of adulting badges in my sleeve but still Sydney kept me in awe and my appreciation for this wonderful place is the same as when I first laid my eyes on it. Just like my initial arrival, first order of business was to roam the CBD area and walk all the way to Australia's most famous landmark - The Sydney Opera House . The cool crisp breeze was perfect weather for a walk ...
