Abaca Restaurant for Breakfast
"I love eating smoked salmon and eggs anything for breakfast! Abaca makes a mean one!"
Exploring the City
"I love heading to the beaches or the mountains. The great thing about Cebu is that all these are just 30 minutes away from the city. I like chilling at Shangri-La's Mactan Resort, I grew up spending my weekends at the beaches there. I also like eating at yummy restaurants in Busay such as Delice and Bellini."

Her Must-go Eating Place
"I'm a Pescatarian, so the seafood at SuTuKil is really good! It's a local restaurant that might freak you out at first because it's like a market and everyone is always yelling something at the same time. But once you pick your fish and tell them how you want it done (grilled, stewed, fresh or cooked in vinegar), then you should be all set!"

Shopping in Cebu
"We have all the international brands at the mall, but I love local pieces so much more. I usually prefer visiting designers or having custom pieces made."
Day Trip from Cebu
"Recently, I visited Kawasan Falls. I love the canyoneering adventure I took with my friends to get there. I’m not usual an extreme sports junkie, but I thought it might be fun to try out canyoneering in the South of Cebu. I ended up really enjoying myself! When we reached Kawasan Falls, we took a break and had lunch. You can even rent a raft and enjoy the view or go under the falls."

City Escapes
"My favourite escape from the city would definitely have to be Boracay. It's my home away from home! It's always so much fun there, and I just love doing sunset sessions by the beach! Stay at Discovery Shores, it's my favourite resort there."
