Go Travel and See the World

I have been searching for cheap plane tickets since October this  year. I tried it in expedia.com and other  travel online portals  but it seems that it is quite expensive now compared to the ones I booked the last time I spent a vacation in the Philippines.

Up on the air during my flight from Phoenix, Arizona to San Francisco, California last summer 2012.

I also sent an email to the travel agency who booked for  my last plane ticket to the Philippines but it seems that they have a problem understanding my email. This  is actually not my first mail to them and sometimes I am quite not happy with the responses. (more…)

It’s been over a year now since my last visit in Las Vegas. Thanks to my donors and sponsors for making it happened! lolz! It was my second visit in this “Gaming and Entertainment Capital of the World”. Las Vegas is truly fabulous and worth to visit.

Let’s visit Ireland again! This time I am bringing you to the so-called “City of the Great Poets and Writers”, in Limerick!  It seems like only the other month when I visited this riverside city. It is over 8 months now since my visit in Limerick.

The  Thomond Bridge crossing the River Shannon in Limerick, Ireland.

I can still remember when our tour guide announced something over the microphone inside the bus,  where the whole group was sitting. That was a group of German tourists who came from the different regions in Germany, from Hamburg to Bavaria! Our tour guide named Kristine, told us that if you are a poet or writer and wish to live in Limerick, you will be tax-free. It simply means that you will not be paying for taxes to the Irish government. Such a big opportunity to live a good life if you are one! It was very interesting to know that and I wish I am a poet and writer. lolz! (more…)

The U.S. government aid – both military and civilian – began flowing as relief efforts got under way by international organizations and private relief groups. (more…)

It was wonderful summer trip I had in Tallinn. I can’t believed that I can visit Estonia’s  capital but I was finally there. Another travel wish and dream came true when I visited this city.  I thought,  I can only see it on travel catalogues, in Television or in internet  but I finally experienced  it.

I was reminded again of that summer trip  in this city  when I watched a  travel reportage about  Tallinn last Sunday. It was really very interesting program.

The Alexander Nevsky Cathedral. It is an orthodox cathedral in Tallinn’s Old Town and was built and designed by Mikhail Preobrazhensky in a typical Russian Revival style between 1894 and 1900.

It was cruise holiday in the Baltics I had last summer. I have been planning to visit this city some years ago and I am glad, I finally stepped on its ground.

Tallinn is a historic city and it is included in the list of the UNESCO World Heritage Sites. Thanks to our tour guide for  the many information she shared to us. Although I did not listen to her a lot,  because I was busy taking pictures, I still  heard  many  things from what she told to the whole group. (more…)

I know it is Halloween season now but let me remember the fun I had when I visited the largest festival in this planet. Yes, it is in Munich’s Oktoberfest where I really had so much fun! Can you imagine witnessing this very awesome celebration? For those who experienced it, I know for sure you had so much fun there.

One of the beer tents in Munich’s Oktoberfest

I had the chance to visit some beer tents in Oktoberfest. I was lucky because during one of my visits  there, it was weekdays and sometimes  they will let you in inside the beer tent especially when it is not yet full. (more…)

I am currently exchanging messages with a friend from Madrid while writing this post. She is asking me when I will go back to Spain’s capital city. Well, when finances permits, I would like it soon! At the moment, it is not really my priority because I was there twice already. I had very challenging and exciting memories in that  city. More on that, I met good friends and thanks to facebook, we still see each other inspite of the distance.

The Cibeles Palace in Madrid, Spain by night.

Back to then main topic about this lovely building in  Madrid. The one you see in this photo is the Cibeles Palace or  Palacio de Cibeles as called in Spanish language.  This is its name since 2011.  It is formerly the Palace of Communication  (Spanish: Palacio de Comunicaciones).  This palace and the Cibeles fountain located in Plaza de Cibeles have been the symbols of Madrid for sometime.

It was quite a surprise trip. We don’t really know what was the exact itinerary. I invited two friends who travelled with me that time. It was also very cheap because we only paid 5.00 Euros for each person. It was winter last February 2013 and the weather was really cold. No matter what season it is of the year, I still travel for anytime of the year.
