How are you all doing? The summer heat is really on and what we are looking forward is to have our vacation or even a quick getaway to relieve from the stress at work or school. In this time of the year, I just like to be outdoors and be with nature to find inner peace. This is the last part of the travel series: Island hopping in Caramoan, Camarines Sur and what I really want to treasure in this experience is the serenity and peace the nature gives me. This is not just another summer vacation but more likely a time to relax and explore. The pride of Caramoan is the beauty of nature and up until now, only few islands are commercialized that's why if you are into nature tripping, Caramoan has a lot to offer for you. #itsmorefuninthephilippines

It's time for another make-up look inspiration. Pretty sure, we wanted to shine brightly as the sun this summer that's why I thought of creating something glowy and fun. I called it Summer Radiance. In this look, I used the shades of orange and yellow. It gives me an instant pop and radiance. Okay, let's do it. I started with a little contouring ( I called it "little contouring" because I'm not so sure about my techniques). This is just to create shadows and highlight of some parts of my face. Recently, I felt like my face is getting fluffy and bloated (no, I'm not getting fat! NO.). I needed *wanted* to perfectly learn dong contouring without making it look like overdone but for now, here is the result of my little contouring (I hope you do well). 

Hey Travel buddies!

Let's continue our island hopping in Caramoan. As promised, today, we will be visiting two (2) islands. I will not keep you waiting, let's hop into the boat! Just like what I've said on the Part 1, one thing you have to consider in island hopping is the distance between the islands you will be going, it is either you rely on the boatmen on the nearest possible islands you can visit or plan ahead and search for the islands you want to go and discover so you can save time and enjoy more your island hopping experience. 

The best thing about island hopping is you get to experience the sea, the breeze, the waves and everything in between. One more thing that catches my attention in this experience are the rock formations all around me and most especially the ones in between the seas. It looks odd and amazing at the same time, it floats in the middle of the sea. Just like the picture below, it really stands out from afar so when we get nearer I have to capture it.

Dearest CATLovers,

I have to say spending time with my cats is like a therapy to me. They instantly makes me happy that's why I have to find ways to interact with them that can be beneficial  for both of us and I'm talking about playtime. Playtime with my cats doesn't just makes me happy but also can be a form of exercise for my feline friends. Last time, I made a post about DIY cat wands so that I can interact with them during their playtime without having some scratches (you may not ask, but I actually play with them by pulling back and forth their cat toys and moving my fingertips fast until they'll notice then, ending up catching my hands). The cat wands I made recently are really a big help for me and made our playtime more fun without getting hurt or dealing with some scratches.

Hey girl!

Some of you are now planning on your quick summer getaway. That's good news! It's better to plan ahead to get ready on the expenses, file on leave and the hassle in between during the peak season. Most of us abide into the planning rule of scheduling our summer trips but are we really ready for summer? No one is perfectly ready but we can make it better, right?

Whenever I am going to a trip, I am guilty of rushing in the last minute to pack my bag, as in, the night before I am going to an early morning trip. I felt like a superwoman and can do everything in minutes. At the end, I always forgot something that I should be bringing and brought things that I regret. So, to make my thoughts organized, I started making a checklist on what to bring, days before going to a trip. But before getting into the list, first things first, every trip has a different purpose so basically, the things you will bring vary from one trip to another depending on your needs.

To be summer ready, here's my quick checklist before heading out to my ultimate summer destination.

Hey girl!

Want to try out an eye-catching summer pop look? I got these eye looks for you. Time to bring out those colorful eyeliners you have and create your own summer eye look. You may have those liners on your vanity kit all this time but you still don't know where to use it. Now, it's time! Don't hesitate to sport a bright eye look this summer. Here are some eye-popping ideas:

Hey Travel buddies!

One of the exciting season is coming, it's S-U-M-M-E-R. It means adventures, travels, hot destinations, nature tripping and a lot more to do outdoors. Here in the Philippines, it's not a big deal because we almost always have sunny weather everyday except the fact that there are really rainy season/months and cold weather (I'm just talking about 16-18 C late nights and early mornings, no big deal for those who have winter season. Haha!) but overall and most of the time, we get to enjoy the sun. Also, here in the Philippines, it is called hot dry season where the sun strikes hotter. This time of the year also spells vacation from school so it is perfect time for family bonding/vacation. As for me and my family, our favorite summer vacation destination is in Region V Bicol, specifically in Caramoan, Camarines Sur mainly because it is my mother's hometown. I already talked about this before it is in my post HERE if you want to know more about Caramoan, Camarines Sur.

Taken in Paniman where we started our island hopping adventure. This is where we got boats for island hopping.

It is known to be as CamSur. It became famous because of its many beaches and rock formations. Caramoan is composed of many islands that are rich in natural resources. It is a great spot for those who wants adventures, serene environment, nature tripping by the seas and beaches. If you want to have a more peaceful summer destination but still get to enjoy the beach and the sun, CamSur is perfect for you. It is also one of the promising summer destinations in the Philippines just like Boracay, which is known to have the finest sand. Truly, #itsmorefuninthephilippines.
