hopes that today will be a stress-free day! (sa work sure walang stress… pero non-work, yan ang challenge!)
Lonely Planet Philippines Magazine Launch
Last May 19, I attended the launch of Lonely Planet Magazine Philippines, at the Ayala Museum in Makati. It was a great event. It was nice to see friends from the photography industry again. The event probably had around 300-400 guests, from friends of Bella Luce, representatives from the different embassies, and of course, executives from BBC. (Lonely Planet is partly owned by BBC).
Here’s a photo of me and my friends from the photography community at the launch.
(with Derick Gamboa, Aly Reyes, and Ickhoy De Leon. Thanks to Noel Puyat for the photo.)
The event was a success, and the Bella Luce Team knows how to throw great parties. Guests went home with a Lonely Planet goodie bag : A copy of the first issue, products and giveaways from Nivea and Energizer, who sponsored the event. Other sponsors included Caltex, Nokia, Thailand Tourism, Rudy Project, Columbia Sportswear and The North Face, Thunderbird Resorts, and The Peninsula Manila. Lucky guests went home with more prizes from these sponsors from the raffle during the event.
Do grab a copy of Lonely Planet Magazine Philippines, available now at Fully Booked outlets. 
One of the sites I love visiting. Visiting this site has been part of my daily routine!
Gotta love Photojojo!

Back from the Holy Land!
Yes folks. I am back.
Back to work, back to the normal Pinoy life, that is. Wake up, go to work, have lunch, then back to work, then go home, then sleep.
I don’t even know where to start. I haven’t finished unpacking yet. Major mess at home. (understatement)
But let me just say, before I start worrying about the things I need and want to do, that the whole experience was just overwhelming. Tiring, yes, but amazing indeed!
I have thousands of photos to work on. Family, friends, and for portfolio.
I have a journal to make, which I brought along with me for my trip, but only managed to write on Day 1. (The itinerary was tiring.)
and a blog that I promised myself to update, as soon as I get back, with my Holy Land trip experience and reflections.
Plus, I still have my job.
I guess this stituation calls for some sort of a superwoman, who can manage time and multitask.
Ack.

Will be missing everyone!
Okay, so let’s face it. As much as I am excited for this trip, I am sure going to miss everyone!
MBS / Monday Bible Study, my Monday group for almost a year now. Good food, good company, and great lessons!
Ickhoy, who always leads MBS, and he makes us laugh too with all his antics.
My D-group, whom I share chika and all those personal stuff to. (well, not too personal) but these are the women I am starting to grow spiritually mature with.
My SW groupmates, companions in my journey, our journey to significance. (cheesy)
Ang mga kaladkarin. When’s the nxt climb???
The Penguins. Nino. Spam. Otep and Tok.
Chubby Cheeks Darryl, whom I always bug in YM. Well sometimes he bugs me. 
We’re not really sure if we can access the internet while in Israel, so probably no YM kulitans for this month.
AC Ong, who should be going with us, but God has other plans. We gave him a “survival kit” so he won’t miss us too much while we’re away.
My Level Up! Officemates! Brunch and Dinner Buddies, after work rant sessions and tambay, road trips, comedy bars and food trips. Wala pala si Toti sa photo.
My boss, Keith, whose only request is that I have my picture taken with a goat in Israel. Zohan daw. 
And my ADMU College Barkada, whom I haven’t seen for a while, but I’m gonna be missing more gimmiks again! (Okay, sorry our photo’s way too formal. Its the only photo after college that we’re complete!)
So, I’ll see everyone in May!

So for my last (and I really mean it this time) expense for this trip, I finally got myself to invest on a new lens. I’ve always wanted a fisheye lens, and Beng, my sister just made me realize this weekend that now is the perfect time to get one. So I did.
I actually had a hard time looking for this, and gave in to buying it from a dealer that I don’t usually visit. For all the panic, and searching I’ve gone through, I am naming it “Nemo”.
I’m looking forward to using this for indoor photos of churches for our trip, plus, lots of fisheye photos of John.

FINAL, FINAL Splurge.
That was some weekend!
Okay, so last week I told myself, “this weekend, I will really blog and post all these info and photos for the trip – more destinations, more photos, more preparations” But only to realize, that with our last weekend before the trip, A LOT of preparations had to be made, thus, not having time to blog, or even spend even 15 minutes in front of my computer at home. Even with the holidays, our schedule was just so packed that we would only be home to sleep and get ready for the next busy day ahead.
Although, I still feel accomplished this weekend. Even with the Bible Study sessions, Coffee, Taboo and Donuts night, Wii afternoon at Tim’s, I was able to do a lot of things:
- Final things to buy for the trip – mesh bags for clothes, contact lens, solutions, bottles, Tupperware, etc. CHECK!
- John’s Aviators – We finally got John to purchase his eyewear for the trip! And they’re super nice!!! J
- Phase 2 of packing – oh yes, finally, I am almost done packing. Final things to pack would be toiletries, chargers, etc.
- Journal – finally found the time to start my journal for this trip. I’ve only got 2 pages so far, but that’s a start.
One thing we’re quite worried about, is the weather. Yes, it’s hot in the desert, and how hard is it to pack for that, right? But at night, it could get really cold. And having to think about the type of outerwear that we have to bring, is quite the challenge. Sweater, scarves, leather jacket, thin down jacket, coats, fleece jackets, were some of the options for this trip. Another challenge though, is getting them to fit inside what seems to be a full, packed, luggage that we have for the 18 days that we’ll be away. (We’re only allowed one luggage per person, plus our hand carried bags.) I guess we have 2 more days to figure this out.

Louis Vuitton Personalization
I really don’t have any plans of buying one since I already have a speedy, but I got curious as to how it would look like with my initials. $1,030 for the LV Monogram Speedy 40. (or 45?)
Thanks to the Louis Vuitton website, I know now.

So last night, I did some shopping (again, and yes, I’m hoping that it’s the last shopping session for this trip).
A couple of weeks back, or maybe a month or two, I had my heart set on a pair of The North Face’s Boa Goretex Hedgehog, which I told myself I’d get by end of March IF and only if they’d have it in my favorite TNF outlet. (Good customer service!)
I also thought, “Man, that would be perfect for Holy Land!”
Just perfect timing when I found out that you can use your Citibank Points to pay for 50% of the total price of all your purchases in TNF, I went there last weekend to check it out. Lo and behold, they had it in my size. So I had it reserved and arranged that I’ll fit it again (with socks this time) and bring my dad along since he has to be the one to sign the charge slip.
Oh yeah, and earlier that day, my sister dropped by TNF as well, had a pair of pants reserved.
So after work last night, immediately went straight to Glorietta, and well, with socks this time, fitted the shoes and it was perfect! (love the color too!)
Ended up getting the following:
1. TNF Women’s Hedgehog GTX XCR Boa – My last GTX I bought 3 years ago, and I guess it was time to replace it. Plus, I just love this one being a Boa.
Designed to endure nasty, wet conditions, the Hedgehog GTX® XCR Boa® is the optimal all-terrain shoe that’s lightweight, waterproof, breathable and durable. New to our footwear collection for this spring, this fastpacking shoe replaces traditional laces with our 19-strand steel wire lacing system, Boa®, that permits micro-adjustable lacing through an easy-adjusting dial located on the heel. Eliminating frozen and soggy laces for good, Boa® is renowned for its durability in ice, snow, and water – exactly where this shoe’s intended to be worn.
Features
- Lightweight, streamlined fastpacking shoe with micro-adjustable Boa® lacing and waterproof GORE-TEX® XCR® for moving fast through wet conditions
- Boa® multi-adjust lacing system
- Waterproof, breathable GORE-TEX® XCR® membrane
- Abrasion-resistant, bomber synthetic nubuck and breathable sandwich-mesh upper
2. The North Face Women’s Meridian Convertible Pant in Beige for my sister, and in Asphalt Gray, for me. This would be my 5th pair of TNF Pants, I just love how it feels when I wear them, and how easy it is to bring them to trips. Saves a lot of space, and dries up in no time too! Perfect for my photo safaris!
The Womens Meridian Convertible Pant from North Face are truly versatile walking trousers constructed from an abrasion resistant nylon coating to protect against scrapes. This womens walking trouser is perfect for walking and hiking and has some great features focused towards this such as a UV protection factor of 30 to help prevent sun damage and plenty of pockets to stow anything from your passport to keys and your mobile phone. The ladies Meridian trouser is versatile in that it has a roll up trouser feature along with a zip off feature allowing you to convert walking trousers to walking shorts if the weather gets warmer on your way. This versatility means you needn’t weigh down your rucksack with extra trousers and shorts and they are lightweight and packable so won’t weigh down your rucksack.
I really have to give credit to the guys at The North Face Glorietta (especially Chris and Ryan) who were very attentive and reliable. With staff like them, I never buy from any other branch.
P.S. With the Citibank Promo, it didn’t do much damage to what’s left of my savings.

TNF Shopping!
8 days to go, and I’m still not done with my research on what to expect when we visit the places in our itinerary. With the help of Wikipedia (Don’t you just love wikipedia???) I was able to find descriptions – the history, significance, and of course, photos of the places.
5. Mount of Beatitudes – The Mount of Beatitudes refers to the hill in northern Israel where Jesus delivered the Sermon on the Mount. A Byzantine church was erected near the current site in the 4th century, and it was used until the 7th century. Remains of a cistern and a monastery are still visible. The current Roman Catholic Franciscan chapel was built in 1938.
6. Peter’s Primacy – The Church of the Primacy of St. Peter is a Franciscan church located in Tabgha, Israel, on the northwest shore of the Sea of Galilee. It commemorates Jesus’ reinstatement of Peter as chief among the Apostles.
(photo from Wikipedia)
7. Tel Dan – Also known as Tel el-Qadi (Mound of the Judge in Arabic, literal translation of the Hebrew name Tel Dan, “Dan” being “judge”, or “judging one”), is an archaeological site in Israel in the upper Galilee next to the Golan Heights. The site is quite securely identified with the Biblical city of Dan, the northernmost city in the Kingdom of Israel, which the Book of Judges states was known as Laish prior to its conquest by the Tribe of Dan. Due to its location close to the border with Lebanon and at the far north of the territory which fell under the British Mandate of Palestine, Tel Dan has had a long and often bitterly contested modern history, most recently during the 1967 Six-Day War.
(photo from Wikipedia)
8. Jordan River – The Jordan River is a river in Southwest Asia flowing to the Dead Sea. It is one of the world’s most sacred rivers. In Judaism, the river serves as the eastern border of the “Eretz Yisra’el”, the Land of Israel. In Christian tradition, Jesus was baptized here by John the Baptist.
The Jordan River is 251 kilometres (156 miles) long.
(photo from Wikipedia)
9. Megiddo – A hill in modern Israel near the Kibbutz of Megiddo, known for its historical, geographical, and theological importance.
In ancient times Megiddo was an important city-state. It is also known alternatively as Tel Megiddo (Hebrew) and Tell al-Mutesellim (Arabic). Megiddo is a tel (hill or mound) made of 26 layers of the ruins of ancient cities in a strategic location at the head of a pass through the Carmel Ridge, which overlooks the Valley of Jezreel from the west. The name Armageddon mentioned in the New Testament derives from Har Megiddo (Hebrew) meaning Mount of Megiddo.
(photo from Wikipedia)
10. Temple Mount – also known as Mount Moriah and by Muslims as the Noble Sanctuary is a religious site in the Old City of Jerusalem.
According to Jewish tradition, it was from here that the world expanded into its present form and from where God gathered the dust used to create the first man, Adam. It was the place God chose to “dwell”, hence the construction of two Jewish Temples at the site. Traditionally, it is believed that a Third and final Temple will also be located here. The Mount is considered the holiest site in Judaism and due to this, many Jews will not set foot on the Mount itself.
Among Muslims, the Mount is widely considered to be the third holiest site in Islam. Revered as the Noble Sanctuary and the destination of Muhammad’s journey to Jerusalem and ascent to heaven, the site is also associated with Jewish biblical prophets who are also venerated in Islam. The al-Aqsa Mosque and Dome of the Rock, the oldest extant Islamic structure in the world, currently stand on the site.
In light of the dual claims of both the Islamic and Jewish faiths, it is one of the most contested religious sites in the world. Controlled by Israel since 1967, both Israel and the Palestinian Authority claim sovereignty over the site, which remains a major focal point of the Arab-Israeli conflict. A Muslim council, known as the Muslim Waqf, manages the site. The Israeli government enforces a controversial ban on prayer by non-Muslim visitors.
According to the Bible, it was this city that King David captured in around 1000 BCE and renamed the City of David. David intended to build a sanctuary to God, as the first temple of the Israelites in Jerusalem, outside the city walls on the northern edge of the hill. He purchased the area, which the Bible refers to as Mount Moriah, from Araunah who owned the site. David’s son Solomon completed the task of erecting the First Temple at the site in 960 BCE. Solomon’s Temple was destroyed by Nebuchadnezzar II of Babylon in 586 BCE.

I’ll probably stop here for now, and divert my attention to my list of things “that I absolutely can’t forget for the trip”. Will be posting more photos of our destinations soon.
Until then,

Sneak Peek!
With only 9 days to go, I might as well finish sharing what’s left of our itinerary.
Day 11 – We start at the Upper Room (Cenacle) where Jesus celebrated The Last Supper with His disciples. We then drive to Bethlehem and view the Shepherd’s field and the Church of the Nativity. At the Garden Tomb, we remember Christ’s death and resurrection with a communion service.
Day 12 – We cross the Israel border at Allenby and then drive to Petra for dinner and overnight stay at the hotel.
Day 13 – We set out for a walking tour of Petra and be prepared for the breathtaking sight of the Al Khazna Treasury. After this, we proceed to Amman, stopping by Mt. Nebo, where God showed Moses the Promised Land.
Day 14 -Day of leisure around Jordan before flight to Dubai.
Day 15 – We start off our day in Dubai with breakfast at the Sahn Eddar at the Burj Al Arab, and then off to Dubai Mall for some sight seeing and shopping. We’ll be visiting Burj Khalifa, The Dubai Fountain and the Dubai Aquarium.
Day 16 – We leave the hotel early to tour Hatta Wadi, passing through Al Aweer and drive through the Golden Sands Dunes towards the Oasis of Hatta. In the afternoon, we are off to a Desert Safari Sunset tour, where we will experience dune bashing, and a unique insight into the traditional life of the Bedouins.
Day 17 – We set out to The Mall of the Emirates, and perhaps try skiing and do some more shopping. Its basically another free day for us.
Day 18 -at 3:00am, We are off to Manila!
Excited as I am, I still feel overwhelmed witht the itinerary. I’m sure we’ll all be tired and will be craving to go to the spa at the end of each day of our tour, but somehow, I feel that all the pain, the sweat, the walking, the inevitable petty arguments, misunderstandings, tampuhans and the crazy heat, it will all be worth it.

Off To Another Adventure! (3 of 3)
Let me just share what a busy weekend it was for us. With less than 2 weeks to go before we leave, we planned to go grocery shopping for some trip essentials (mainly snacks and stuff) after our 4th Holy Land Bible Study Saturday session. We started at around 3pm and finished at 6ish, then we were off to the grocery…
One of the most important things to buy on our list was Coffee. My two companions absolutely cannot live without coffee. I think we spent around 15 mins on this aisle trying to decide which brand to take. Brand this and that was too strong, this one too light, this one not good, until we got one that was just right.
Next on our lists were salt, pepper, seasoning, and my favorite and John’s as well, Hot sauce. We grabbed a couple of packs of noodles and biscuits too, for those “alanganin” times that we’d get hungry.
Since we were meeting other friends for dinner, we went to check out as soon as we got the things we needed… John, being the “kulit” John we never thought existed, started modeling the items we were about to purchase.
And John just had to play with the cart!
I had to keep myself from laughing so hard while taking the photo above.
Its simple adventures like this that make me more excited for our upcoming trip. I’d like to turn John into a mummy wrapped in tissue paper while we’re taking photos at Giza.

Weekend Preparations for Holy Land 2010
With 14 more days to go before we leave, I might as well continue sharing our itinerary…
Day 6 – We focus on the sites from the life of Christ in Galilee. He preached the Sermon on the Mount on the Mount of Beatitudes. More of Jesus’ recorded miracles were performed in Capernaum than in any other city (yet they did not believe). Then we are off to ride a boat at the Sea of Galilee just like in the time of Jesus. We take a stop at Peter’s Primacy to take a closer look at Jesus’ ministry along the Sea of Galilee. Lastly, before going back to the hotel for dinner, we check out Chorazin and Bethsaida, two of the cities cursed by Jesus.
Day 7 – Drive north to Golan Heights, and Ceasarea Philippi, where Peter confessed Jesus to be the Messiah. We visit Tel Dan and climb the steps leading to the altar where Jeroboam placed a golden calf when the nation was divided. We finish the day at a baptismal site on the Jordan River.
Day 8 – We travel to Mt. Carmel, cross the Valley of Jezreel, and walk through Megiddo – a city that Solomon fortified. We explore Caesarea where Peter preached in Cornelius’ home and where Paul spent 2 years in prison. We then travel up to Jerusalem for the day’s rest.
Day 9 – We drive to the Mount Olives where we see an overview of the Temple Mount. We walk down the Palm Sunday Road to the Garden of Gethsemane. We enter the Old City of Jerusalem through the Dung Gate and explore the area of the Ophel and Southern Temple Steps near the Beautiful Gate where Peter and John healed the lame man. We then visit the Wailing Wall where many religious Jews come to pray and follow a tunnel along the Western Wall to see some of the massive stones Herod the Great used in the construction of the Temple Mount.
Day 10 – We start the day with a visit to the Temple Mount where the Dome of the Rock stands, then to the Pool of Bethesda where Jesus healed the crippled man, the Antionia Fortress where Pilate condemed Christ to death and walk though the Via Dolorosa to the Church of the Holy Sepulcher. We proceed to the Yad Vashem Holocaust Museum and then to the Upper Room where Jesus celebrated the Last Supper, and then end the night with a Passover Meal similar to the one Jesus celebrated with His disciples.
That’s it. Days 6-10 of our trip. I’ll be sharing the rest in a couple of days.
/ aF
Off To Another Adventure! (2 of 3)
15 Days to go, still haven’t started listing or thinking about the things I have to pack. I’ve been doing some wiki research on the places that we’ll be visiting, I’d like to share some details here:
1. Egyptian Museum – Also known as the Museum of Egyptian Antiquities, it houses more than 120,000 items, with a good amount of them displayed in the museum. Currently they have 9 mummies on display, treasures of King Tutankhamen, and the largest collection of Pharaonic antiquities. (and yes, this Museum was mentioned / shown in The Mummy and Indiana Jones.)
2. Great Pyramids of Giza – The Giza Necropolis stands on the Giza Plateau, on the outskirts of Cairo, Egypt. This complex of ancient monuments includes the three pyramids known as the Great Pyramids, along with the massive sculpture known as the Great Sphinx. One of the monuments, the Great Pyramid of Giza, is the only remaining monument of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World.
3. Mt. Sinai – Located at the City of St. Catherine in Egypt, this was where God gave Moses the Ten Commandments. Need I say more?
4. Dead Sea – Also called the Salt Sea, is a salt lake bordering Israel and the West Bank to the west, and Jordan to the east. Its surface and shores are 422 meters below sea level, the lowest elevation on the Earth’s surface on dry land. The Dead Sea is 378 meters deep, the deepest hypersaline lake in the world. It is also one of the world’s saltiest bodies of water, with 33.7% salinity. It is 8.6 times more salty than the ocean. This salinity makes for a harsh environment where animals cannot flourish, hence its name.
Biblically, it was a place of refuge for King David. It was one of the world’s first health resorts (for Herod the Great), and it has been the supplier of a wide variety of products, from balms for Egyptian mummification to potash for fertilizers. People also use the salt and the minerals from the Dead Sea to create cosmetics and herbal sachets.
Yes, this is also the sea where everyone floats. (Look ma! no vests!)
I’ll stop for now, but more entries to follow. (Dead Sea Scrolls, Mount of Temptation, Sea of Galilee, etc).
Oh yeah, and I’m off to the mall tonight to get some dri-fit sun protection shirts for this trip!

03.24.2010. 15-Day Countdown Begins Today
With 16 days to go, I can’t help but feel really excited BUT at the same time, panic with all the things I have to finish before we leave. Packing right, gear preparations, readings, research on destinations, pocket money, and work that I’m leaving behind, are just some of the things that have been bugging me for some time now. Sharing to all our itinerary, and perhaps, typing this would shed some light to me on how I should proceed with my packing and other preparations…
Day 0 – Rush to the Airport after work to check in! 
Day 1- Depart Manila at 12:20am and arrive in Cairo, Egypt around late morning. First stop, Egyptian Museum, to learn about the civilization mentioned in the Bible and see some of the riches of King Tutankhamen. Next, we proceed to the Papyrus Institute to see how paper was produced in the ancient times and then experience the scents of perfume at the Perfume Factory.
Day 2- Off to see the Great Pyramids of Giza, the Valley Temple and the Sphinx. Then we retrace the journey of the Israelites as they left Egypt, crossed the Red Sea, and traveled through the Sinai Peninsula. We then spend the night at a hotel near the base of Mt. Sinai where Moses received the Ten Commandments.
Day 3 – An early morning hike (or maybe a camel ride for me) to the top of Mt. Sinai to catch the sunrise. Then breakfast back at the hotel, then travel to the Egyptian-Israeli Taba border. Then off to the Dead Sea and end the day with an “Unsinkable Swim” before going back to the hotel to rest.
Day 4 – We set out for Masada, which Herod the Great fortified and where the Jews had their final resistance against the Romans until A/D/ 73. At nearby Qumran we see the caves where a shepherd discovered the Dead Sea Scrolls.
Day 5 – We view the Mount of Temptation and see the ruins of the old city of Jericho that was conquered by Joshua. We stop at the Synagogue Church in Nazareth before checking in at the hotel along the Sea of Galilee.
The first 5 days of our trip sounds so exciting already, but still no idea on how I should pack. Packing light, and right, is a challenge.
To be continued…

I just confirmed my order for a Gitzo GT0541 Mountaineer Tripod with a G1178M Ballhead, totaling to about $650. It was somewhat an impromptu, impulse purchase, when a friend of mine posted in Facebook that he was planning to order for himself and asked if anyone wanted to tag along. You see, I used to have a Manfrotto Carbon Fibre (190CX4) with a joystick head, but last January, I decided to sell it because I wasn’t shooting much. Funny, that a few weeks after the sale, a certain travel magazine asked me to shoot for them, and yes, you guessed it right, I needed a tripod. So I had to borrow from another friend just to have a tripod for the shoot. (Thank you Jeff!). So, going back, with the upcoming trip to Holy Land and another project with the travel magazine, I decided it was time for me to get one. One that’s way lighter than my old tripod. I’ve always wanted a Gitzo. So as painful as it is to part with my hard earned money, I decided to invest (yet again) on another gadget, for my hobby (which sometimes pays, mind you.) I’m expecting it to arrive in about 5-10 days.
I also wanted a Louis Vuitton Damier Neverfull MM Ebene, but that would have to wait until well, God knows when.
So, Thanks to my friend Jerry Tieng, I am on a budget this month, and probably the next as well.

Gitzo Mountaineer Tripod
Rainy Friday
I’m really loving the weather today. After days of “Ugh, I absolutely cannot walk in this weather” heat (not my words, FYI.) I finally get that cool breeze I last experienced a couple of months back. No wonder last night’s run was breezy – it was going to rain the next morning.
When I got out of my building this morning, with my aviators on (because well, I was expecting today to be scorching hot), I was shocked. Gray skies greeted me, and well, the rain. I went back up to change. So now, I’m in boots, and a jacket.
Good thing my lunch date cancelled. Else, I’ll be eating sidewalk food, kwek-kwek, in particular, in boots.
“If you do eat kwek kwek in those, you’ll elevate its status to sosy status, which it rightfully deserves. Haha labo!” – G. (Labo nga!)
Have a blessed, rainy Friday, friends!
