Last August 16, I had my first event with the YFC-PUP at St. Joseph College in Quezon City. It was fun and I found it a little interesting more than I thought. The activity was named as ALERT!. It was also my first time to be in an event full of YFC members from the participating universities that are in the U-belt. The said event covered a list of activities including a dance competition, battle

Films have a funny way of touching people, of evoking emotions and of making viewers feel part of their reflective stories. And there are hundreds upon hundreds of films that make us want to be where they're set. Everybody has their own list of memorable destinations in movies. A single list of 10 isn't quite enough to cover a small fraction of it. But I'll give you a taste of the common

Hmmm.. it seems summer is about to end and school days are coming. I never thought that time will banish that fast. I still want to extend this vacation. It's kind of short because I'm just starting to enjoy it, now that I knew some kind of hobby I think that I will continue throughout my life. It's amazing that you've been struggling to rest a couple of months ago but now you are struggling to

Many of the world's great cities were built along rivers, making them easily accessible for trade and exploration. Today, riverboat cruises remain as one of the most alluring and efficient ways to tour them. Like ocean liners, riverboats represents floating hotels but riverboats rarely hold more than 150 passengers, and they sail past fishing villages and vineyards to dock right in the heart of

In January, Tourism Queensland put out want ads looking for a "caretaker" for Hamilton Island on Australia's Great Barrier Reef. Nearly 35,000 people applied. More important, the press picked up the story. "The main objective is to generate media coverage to supplement advertising," says Bill Siegel of the market-research firm Longwoods International. Struggling tourist destinations are

The world's national parks offer fresh air, wildlife, scenic vistas and breathtaking topographic formations. And that is why so many of them—from Yosemite to England's Lake District to Thailand's Khao Yai—are mobbed in peak season. But there are parks that have somehow slid beneath the radar of the photo-snapping masses. For travelers looking to really get away—far, far away—from it all, these

Battered and broke, anxious and exhausted, we are desperate for an escape from our day-to-day lives. The travel industry is bracing for possibly the worst season since 9/11. The U. N. estimates that worldwide tourism will fall by up to 2 percent this year, with the Americas and Europe hardest hit. The number of international tourists going to the United States fell 9 percent during the year

Starting at Escolta and go where our feet take us!It's good that people like Carlos Celdran of Walk This Way Tours are even making an effort to educate people on the grandeur that was Old Manila. The truth is that Manila was a transplanted Europe, and WWII destroyed all that. But more on character with our wanderlust, we decide that the best way to explore the city would be able to pick a spot on

Pedaling a real Japanese bicycle in a sideswipe-free zone!The World Bank had a hand in this. Yes, the same financial institution that drives countries' economies by remote control granted $1.3 million to Marikina through their Global Environment Facility. To their credit, the shoe capital first thought up the idea of including bikes in the mainstream of public transportation in the city and had
