Holiday Inn Hotel Clark, Philippines

Located at the Mimosa Leisure Estate Mimosa Drive, Pampanga Clark Field, Philippines. This hotel is surely a good spot to unwind or take some time to reminisce the good old days. With the green surrounding, you want to stay all day at the lounge or at the cafeteria. While the breeze also makes you want to stay in bed and read a lot of ebooks in your iPad tab. Sports and wellness facilities are simply fine and well-maintained obviously. You don't even need to go out bar-hopping because they have this bar at the ground level called Copa's Bar just right in front of the swimming pool. So after you knocked off that bar, you'll just have to lay low a while at the pool bar and maybe for a swim. A lot of souvenir items you could choose from - from head to foot accessories just right next to it also.

The restaurant called Mequeni (I hope I spelled the name correctly) serves some of the Pampanga's best delicacies as well as Eastern and Western cuisine at a classy or al fresco dining experience (makes me wanna have some:)) Although I wasn't able to visit the roof top, somebody told me that there's a fine dining there serving delectable menus. And oh just to mention the Angus beef steak I've missed :((

Come to my humble abode! (Hoping 'n wishing..;)) - A Hotel Review

Now's the time to showcase some of the humbling places and hotels I've visited so far. For the last 6 years of working and travelling, there are really a lot to tell! I would say, thank you to all the invites.

What's "pop" and what is not? Well, the very first thing that catches my eye is the bedroom. Why? Because, it is your sole purpose goin' in there in the first place - to live out in the comfort of your own home or getting out of your comfort zone. Being a tech savvy and a net addict, having a wifi signal free of charge within the periphery is a plus (haha not really so demanding). Of course, by all means, you really wanted something that suits you rather than something just to fit in, ayt? Nah! Not to the extent of luxury but just a simple pampering yourself!

Food..food...food. Remember that the way to a man's heart is through his stomach. And what makes everybody crave and wanting to have more and even more? Nothing but some good food! Now, who's who among the rest did serve better delicacies.

What about their facilities? Do they have facilities to offer for sports, wellness, etc.? A swimming pool is good but never a requirement since I'm not fond of swimming in a man-made pool. Otherwise, I should have gone to a nearby beach resort if that would be my purpose.

Another must-have feature of a hotel is its accessibility and its strategic location. Ease of access to everything which includes transportation (if you wanna go back 'n forth), communication access, and even to shopping malls for those shopaholic ;). A special add-on also is its proximity to some must-see places. Trekking is my kind of thing, thus, an offer for a nature trek is another plus plus plus. That way, I could practice more my point-n-shoot abilities and later come up with some few good photo memories.

That would be all I think. Succeeding articles will be my hotel reviews. :))

Camping at Marlboro Country..Still Sagada...Loving it!

Camping at the Marlboro Country is fun. From the plaza down to the place certainly is a long walk. Following the trek is also a maze with an intricate track you could hardly remember. Early in the morning, the hills are literally hiding. It's always a cold and foggy morning. While you wanted to be in, but only a good feet harmonizing with the track is advisable to land here or else you will surely not appreciate it. The panoramic view while moving on and as the clouds rising is just splendid. And if you're afraid of heights (Acrophobia), then don't ever look down. By the way, if you're lucky enough you will have a closer look at the wild horses straying and playing.
