Baguio Adventure

It's been a while since my last post and since you can already feel the summer heat, what better way to start with the City of Pines, Baguio City. Baguio is considered the"Summer Capital of the Philippines."  True to it's name, Baguio City is one of the coolest places in the country. It's a 4-5 hour drive from Manila and you will see awesome mountainside on your way up to Baguio. Though the city is highly urbanized, Baguio is still a great place to immerse yourself with its rich tradition and Filipino Culture. On a personal note, Baguio will always be one of my favorite vacation destinations and I will never get tired from visiting it.

Having that said, let me guide you on some destinations you might want to visit in Baguio.

Tagaytay Highlands

Tagaytay Highlands is one of the best places I've ever visited. What I love about this place is the cool air and the breath taking nature that goes with it. It is truly refreshing!

Primarily, Tagaytay Highlands is a Golf & Country Club and later opened it's gates for their residential communities. There are three ways you can stay here: (1) you are a member of one of their Golf Club or affiliate Clubs; (2) you are a home-owner in their residential community; or (3) you have been invited by someone who is a member or a home-owner of Tagaytay Highlands. You can check their website at www.tagaytayhighlands.com for more information.

Club Balai Isabel

When talking about vacation or out of town, I always look for a place that is lively. Maybe a bar to hangout. A place where I can listen to live music or do some sing-a-long. Or just any happenings that will occupy my night. I want fun. I want something interesting. I want excitement. I want something to fill my night.

If my friends ask me to join a trip, I always make sure that there will be some night life in that vicinity. If they are only going for some kind of nature trip, I immediately say no and reject the idea. This has always been the case until I experienced a weekend getaway at Club Balai Isabel.
