ABOUT ME
Hi my name is Ronnell. And for the people who know me, they know that I love the Philippines very much and I am not really one who rants and complains to high heavens about what is happening to our country and does nothing about it. Yet, after seeing how events in our nation had transpired the past years and after talking to some friends, I feel the urge to share with you my own thoughts and feelings here. |

When you get to cool, crystal clear waters, white sandy beaches, friendly town folk and delicious seafood ... you're in the Island of Bantayan. It's like entering the time and place when life was simple and quiet.... |
Legend has it that the hills came into existence when two giants threw stones and sand at each other in a fight that lasted for days. When they were finally exhausted, they made friends and left the island, but left behind the mess they made... |
Well, the day has finally come. My first time in Camotes Island - The Lost Horizon of Cebu and my first time to meet the family of the women whom I fell in love for past 8 years - going stronger...

Cebu Metropolitan Cathedral is the ecclesiastical seat of the Metropolitan Archdiocese of Cebu in Cebu, Philippines. Construction of the Cathedral took long due to frequent interruptions brought about by lack of funds and other unexpected events... |
Rain or Shine! Sinulog Festival in Cebu continues... as always! That's why people love it and I love it!. I took the photo above last January and rain was dripping everywhere but who cares? People can't stop the dance rituals that commemorates... |

Baguio is considered the Summer Capital of the Philippines. Because of its many pine trees it is also called the City of Pines. My experience in Baguio City was amazing! It was my first time travelling on plane and first time in Manila. Yes! you heard me right... |
Iligan - the City of Magestic Waterfalls. Home Sweet Home! I was born & raised on this City and I will never forget the entrance fee of TIMOGA Swimming Pool during my childhood days. It was only P1.50. Yeah! don't bother asking how old I am now! hehe... |
Calamba Laguna - The birth place of our own Philippine National Hero - Dr. Jose Rizal. Too bad It was closed for the public during my visit in Calamba Rizal Shrine, the caretaker mentioned to us that they are organizing the house in preparation of Rizal Day. So, don't plan your trip in the month of December... |
The fabulous theme park of the Philippines which is located in Sto. Rosa City, Laguna. With only P600 - you can ride all you can but be sure to come early afternoon or else you'll end up falling for lengthy lines for each rides. And please, don't ride in Space Shuttle if you get sick easily... |
