A few weeks back, my friends and I had a year-end gathering (a tradition we started about a decade ago), and we chose Samal Blu for the venue – a private by-the-beach resort in Brgy. Limao in Samal. Here’s a map going to the resort. We booked this place for an exclusive overnight stay for […]
DIY can cost you more. My Lake Holon experience made me realize that going there the DIY way can cost you more (not to mention it is time-consuming); you can find a tour package (all-in) for just about 3,000 pesos, give or take (and that’s from Davao and back). On the other hand, when you […]
