I’ve grown to appreciate Taipei these past two visits of mine because its such an easy flight to get to, ideal for a quick weekend getaway just to recharge and replenish — with this I mean the “nom nom” type of eating 🙂 Although it doesn’t have quite the same energetic pace and aggressive attitude […]

Northern Thailand Tour
My mom was raving about this tour regularly organised by Philippine Thai Cultural Organization (PTCO) . It was actually more of a friendly delegation in line with the group’s aim to encourage, develop, promote, strengthen and nurture ties between the two countries through mutual networking […]

Road Trip Through Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Slovenia and Italy
Croatia and Slovenia were just lovely. Our Day Trip to parts of Bosnia and Herzegovina was an appetiser to indulge more of the Balkan States in the near future. And as we moved up North, we capped our adventure with some “La Dolce […]

2017 Christmas Mediterranean Cruise And Private Tours

Cruising the Baltic Seas Aboard the Regal Princess
Our Scandinavian Adventure was two years in the making. Initially, we were discouraged to take a Cruise because of days wasted at sea and the inevitable 2D stop in St. Petersburg, which we’ve done back in May 2011 (https://whereintheworldispennyk.com/category/europe/russia/). Our travel days were limited […]

2015 Christmas Holiday in Japan
Because it was our third time to spend the holidays in Japan, we opted to insert a side trip to explore the highlights of Hokkaido. It was definitely a surreal experience and we were blown away in Winter Wonderland! As I posted pictures of our […]

Katigbaks Euro Trip Itinerary – October 2015
What prompted this trip was that “Too Good to Miss” SQ Promo with BPI Cards last January 2015. My Father-in-Law and Sister-in-Law – Judith, braved the lines in Glorietta Mall to discuss travel options with a travel agent and after clearing out the details, we […]

Bali at 40 with the Girls: The Itinerary
Turning 40 spurs mixed emotions! I was at the brink with my co-Titas-of-Manille (as we humorously mock ourselves). We decided to see it as victorious and worth the celebration! Thus a well-deserved get away was meticulously planned by the boss! Our group consisted of four ladies from […]
