Shopping Centers in Singapore

I felt like this post took soooo long but anyway, here we are again! This will be my last installment about our trip to Singapore. For every trip, may it be local or international, what we eventually look for are the places where we can buy some pasalubong for our very expectant family and friends. This has been engraved within our culture and I don't think this is going anywhere anytime soon.

CHINATOWN!

A Day at Resorts World Sentosa

For the 2nd day of our stay in Singapore, we decided that we'll just spend it mostly inside Sentosa. Along with the plane tickets and the hotel accommodations, the raffle also included a free pass to three of Resorts World's attractions; Adventure Cove, S.E.A. Aquarium, and of course, Universal Studios!

Sightseeing in Singapore

As what I have said on my previous post, getting around Singapore will be the least of your worries because of their highly efficient subway system (wish it could also be implemented here in the country). So days ahead, I have researched everything I needed to know about this transportation system. The key to saving as much money as you can while going around this country is to avoid taking taxis and ride their trains (plus you also get to experience how the daily lives of Singaporeans is like!).

de Leons' goes International!

Travelling had always been my passion. I could say that I see this as my escape from the daily routine of waking up early to head to the office, and spend most of my day there, before wrapping things up to go home. So the moment we learned that my tita was picked as one of the lucky winners of Jollibee's raffle, I knew I would never let this opportunity go down the drain!

Overnight Stay at Kaliraya Surf Kamp

Weeks ahead, Jem and I had been planning on going to Potipot Island in Zambales for an overnight stay. We were supposed to do this during the super long weekend but since we no longer had the budget and time, we decided on roughing it out on nearby provinces instead.

I was wearing shorts, I swear :))

Quick Trip to the North: San Felipe, Zambales

Having the Philippines host the 30th ASEAN Summit was not only a blessing for the Philippine government but also to ManileƱos and ManileƱas. Having to suspend work and class for a Friday and having another holiday come Monday next week means a SUPER LONG WEEKEND we all crave for!
