Our New Journey

living to the fullest

Author: Coco

I have always loved traveling and travel often for work. But 2.5 years ago we moved to Manila and started to travel more for leisure.

This blog will record our journey in this new living style and my thoughts around it.

Husband went to groceries shopping. I prepared dinner and baked apple cake for Monday's breakfast. We all dived … Continue reading Post-holiday thoughts →

Slowwwww island days

3 days in Gili Air was the perfect way to end our trip. It’s a small island, with no motorized form of transportation, surrounded by beaches, amazing sunsets, and our gorgeous 4 bedroom villa. I couldn’t have asked for a better way to wind down this trip. It is probably one of my favorite place … Continue reading Slowwwww island days →
