Philippines’ Globe Mobile Network Promos

· Comment

Bare neces­si­ties. If you are ever in Manila/PHL and look­ing to get a Pre­paid mobile line for emer­gency and/or to just com­mu­ni­cate around the islands, this might get you on the right track.

I did some research with Globe and their “GoSak­to” make-your-own com­bos; ~P500/month for some calls and unlim­it­ed tex­ting ain’t bad (P300 only if 1,000 of text). I’ll be able to afford more cronuts now!

Update
Seems there’s a bet­ter pro­mo if you are look­ing to spend about P500, GoUnli500. The pro­mo bun­dle includes the fol­low­ing:

  • Viber, FBMsg, Kakaotalk,WhatsApp, WeChat, Line
  • Text to All net­works
  • Calls to Globe and TM

  • Chat

Get On… Pagudpud

· Comment

A day in the region of Pagud­pud. Ilo­cos Norte, Philip­pines. This place usu­al­ly has awe­some weath­er but we hap­pen to just catch a storm. Oh well, it was­n’t too bad head­ing out and doing some hikes and explo­ration by flip-flop. We went to only vis­it the North-side as we need­ed to get back down to Laoag lat­er on that day. (Feb 2013)

All shot on the GoPro HERO2 HD. Edit­ed on FCP X. My first time using it; sucks that you can’t trim the reject­ed par­tial-clips like in iMovie ’11. I might have to do the trim­ming before­hand, as unwant­ed file-space is adding up.

Surfin’ Fish — Day Trip Zambales

· Comment

Our road trip from Sat­ur­day, Sep­tem­ber 1, 2012. Passed Subic from some lunch at Meat Plus Cafe, then head­ed north to Zam­bales to get some surf, sand, and fun in the Sun.

We rolled to San Nar­ciso’s Crys­tal Beach Resort. The peo­ple were friend­ly and so wel­com­ing. It also hap­pens to be a Quick­sil­ver learn­ing school. So that was awe­some. Thanks to @SurfinFish + @Tdlc35Cruz + @BLKC24 + @MargauxSue + Chef May + Tess for a dope Sat­ur­day!

Good times!
