Summer Tips for Trips: Dining Locally

Someone said, ‘You don’t need a silver fork to eat a good food'. 
Good food can just be around the corner of places abroad, one must not just get to see the sights and sounds of the places and but also the taste of it to get the whole experience. That’s by tasting local delicacies; local signature foods and dining in places that serve local cuisines. And no need for a silver fork for that.

 Doing some Research
Before going for your summer trip and destinations, research on the best place for their local cuisines; here are some great sources for that:
  • Local Bloggers- since a local and mostly a lover to their own places; they’re great sources of information and by contacting them they could give more personal insight.
  • Travel guides- be sure to find an updated travel guide as some are old and new infrastructures have already been made are still not in print. Look at their local restaurant section, one can find the top restaurants with rating from 3 to 5 stars and also reviews.
  • Ask a Friend or Relative- word of mouth is one of the best advertisers and with a friend or family relative that has great taste and has already been there, is a reliable source of tips and even warnings.

 Tasting the Experience
Upon reaching the destination make sure that the decision to taste and eat in those places is fixed. Be both bold but daring; trying new things but also cautious like asking a few questions. Keep in mind also food allergies as it may be triggered by some of the ingredients in those delicacies. Make sure to really savour each food experience and take some pictures if it is allowed as a souvenir of that exploit.

To God Be the Glory- My Testimonial During the Youth Reload last Friday- May 13, 2011 was a night filled with music, dance, laughter and even tears for the One and Only Star in our Lives- God. BCC was once again filled with so many young people, there are lots of “VIPs” and also the “Many Timers”- I’m one of them. I’ve been coming to BCC for almost 2 months now. After my Encounter, my passion to go through these events increased and going to BCC is already part of my Weekly schedule. But that night was different. Our Network-Eagurlz and the Arios Knights were the sponsors for the YR’s program. It was different because I was not just there to watch but to be watched. We were called “Las Chicas Agilas” and we danced Stacie Orrico’s “I could be the one”. But before the dance, there was one part were someone wil

Tula sa Nangungulila

Missing someone(s) right now. So I'll write right now. Di mo man ako pansinin, Ibaliwala ang pagsuyo at pagtingin, Basta huwag mo laging kalimutan, Ikaw ay nasa aking mga panalangin. Di kita tatantanan o bibitawan, Makita ko lang ang inaasam na pagbabago. Mawala na ang inyong lumang pagkatao, At maghari ang Buhay ni Kristo! Ngayong araw, ikaw ay nasa aking mga dasal, Alam mo man o Hindi, Ako'y nananabik para sa iyo. Hanggang sa makita kang muli. Sa aking harap at sa iyong tabi. English Translation: You might not notice me now, Don't mind my persuasion and affection. Just don't always forget, You are always in my prayers. I will not leave you alone or let you go, Until I finally see the change for you I've longed for. That your old you be gone, And see the life of Christ in you! Today, You are in my prayers, You might know or not, I am longing for you, Until I finally see you again. Face to face and by your side.

“Restless? Be STILL”

See the picture? That’s our University field. It’s so vast for me even I’ve seen it almost my whole life. Growing up inside the campus, growing up seeing all of these for 22 years, I still never get use to these. Masarap mag senti sa mga lugar na ito. Maaliwalas, tahimik at malawak- kasing lawak ng imagination ko. Peace. Lately, I’ve been struggling with peace. Heart. Mind. Body. Soul. Whenever I see this vastness I would dream again. That God would fill this with so many young people that will worship Him, give their lives to Him. And you know what? It excites me. And scares me. It makes me happy. And makes me nervous. Maybe it’s just really part of my personality. As Kabacan Ministry is taking off- Sunday services and open cells, my list of goals and dreams also increases. It’s not a bad thing- having goals are all important so that you would know if we really are progressing. “But we must hold on to the progress we have already made.” Phil3:16. Since all of these are happening,
