The romantic way 2GO travel by sea

Our most romantic travel ever via 2GO travel.


It's like we're having our vacation in a floating hotel or on board an international cruise ship. 2GO's staterooms are awesome with its spacious shower room with bath tab and with hot and cold shower. The living room situated near the tourist's windows is perfect for coffee breaks and chitchats. And of course the beds oh dear life, it's the best. Almost everything inside the room are perfect, the wall, the furniture and curtains oohlala. The room also equipped with wide screen TV with Cable and refrigerator.   

 (Baby let's cruise)
(Away from here)
(Don't be confused)
(The way is clear)
And if you want it, you got it forever
This is not a one night stand.baby
(Yeah)
So, let the music take your mind
Just release and you will find

You're gonna fly away
Glad you're goin my way
I love it when we're cruisin' together
Music is played for love
Cruisin' is made for love
I love it when we're cruisin' together

Barangay Latuan, the Cave capital of Zamboanga.

Latuan Rice field and the Jalon Cave

Locals said that the Jalon Cave  is “the graveyard of Subanon people” long time ago. Like most other caves in the Philippines specially in the Northern part of Luzon, tribes used to leave dead body inside the cave as their belief and customs. So if you happen to do some caving activity in Latuan, consider  the Jalon Cave  and discover history on your own because  it (cave) is not yet been authenticated by any agency concerned so be the first.

History and story behind this rock formation. Can you see anything?

Barangay Latuan is blooming, booming and transforming through tourist spots and more

A not so far community (barangay) in the eastern part of Zamboanga City where farming plays the major role of all the locals living here. A very simple, calm and fresh life can be found here,  far from the busy  traffic and rude pedestrians. I grew up and had my grade school life, my parents, relatives and some childhood friends are living here, this is our place Latuan.

The only thing that I clearly remember until now is my school life way back 1991-96, years where I first learned my ABCs and 123 had my first crush until I bid goodbye in 1996 to pursue my High School and partial College  years in  the city then moved to Manila to finish my Marketing course and to work as well.

We need a Church that is Humbler, Simpler and more developed capacity for silence

The Catholic Church just got a rockstar!

Cardinal Luis Antonio Tagle

Luis Antonio Tagle a 55-year old Archbishop of Manila might soon  be the the leader of the Catholic Church, we can never tell he has what it takes to be a leader because he is a rockstar, isn't he?

Biking in San Mateo is one of the best summer activities this summer

Biking has always been in my bucket list of activities since college but never in my free time had the chance to participate such adventurous activities like Biking/cycling and Motocross tho motocross is really out of my experimental world but I wanna try it in the near future and I hope I can.

Bikers Cafe

In just 4 months since I came back here in Manila to work for an Apparel Company, I've been receiving a lot of orders from different group of  athletes and from different schools, but whenever there's a group of cylclistas dropping by I really see to it that I am not only after for the deal but also for the information about their group, the location, and everything else happening beyond their adventurous organization.


So to make this long and winding road post shorter, I met Bryan Pangan of Bikers Cafe,  he is the king of the mountain in San Mateo Rizal who has a deepest passion in mountain biking and in some way promoting wellness among his group. What I like about his group is the uniqueness and perseverance an also the so-called building friendship on road. Although I didn't have the chance to meet the entire group but i can really sense the bond going on.

What makes me more excited to experience mountain biking in San Mateo?  It's the Bikers Cafe. This is really far from my imagination before, that whenever there's a race or biking activity, bikers would end up refreshing themselves under the umbrella tree near the beach or having some mini-party together with the group.

Refreshing on the top of the mountain after biking? Bikers Cafe is waiting for you there, whether you're a hard core biker, a junior or just a visitor. I am thinking of if this place was made before world war II  or after it I'm sure Salvatore would ask Elena for a last date here in this place hmmm more romantic than in Italy.  If you are familiar about these characters well your not young anymore, Salvatore and Elena -- the lovers from Cinema Paradiso, an Italian classic movie full of twists and turns and romance.

I will close this POST as it is, because I might be the spoiler for others who want to feel the surprises waiting in San Mateo specifically at the cafe but should you decide to  share summer activities in my blog you may write me anytime at lanceromel@cheerful.com
