Introduction to Cruising
I grew up in provincial Philippines where the concept of travel was a far-flung dream. Yet as I got older, the reading that I did began to occupy my thoughts more and more until eventually in 2000 I moved to Dubai, United Arab Emirates. Since then, Travel has become my overriding passion and I have now visited 52 different countries on different continents. I became so enthused that having kept notes and taken many photos I wrote and published my own travel book in the hope that I could inspire others, especially from the Philippines to be brave enough to travel – particularly to those who wants to travel solo.…

Travelling has been one of my immense dreams. After visiting to more than thirty countries it has inclined me to write this book in a plain, simple way I wish to share the feeling, smell, sights, and sound that I personally encountered, as well as the weird and wonderful things I experienced during my travels that apparently according to IBN Battuta, a Moroccan Muslim traveller and scholar who said that ‘Travelling – it leaves you speechless, then turns you into a storyteller.’ For a period, I hesitated to push through writing my texts, thinking who would believe me in the first place other than myself and perhaps some of my…

Geneva Switzerland – Stunning City
I only had one day scheduled to explore Geneva which unfortunately really did not do it justice considering its magnitude in history and of so many interesting things to see and do. Still, I’m so delighted to have an up-close and personal experience to visit this wonderful city. I enjoyed the moment being in a country whose name itself is synonymous to high quality, an indelible excellent reputation earned especially in the field of Horology, particularly in watchmaking. For hours, I content myself window shopping admiring at the beautiful pieces of luxury of…
