Have a refreshing weekend and explore the multi-color beauty of Baguio City. Vanashane Travel and Tours arranges an 2D2N (2 days & 2 nights) stay at the Summer Capital of the Philippines.

Panagbenga is a month-long annual flower festival occurring in Baguio. The term is of Malayo-Polynesian origin, meaning "season of blooming".The festival, held during the month of February, was created as a tribute to the city's flowers and as a way to rise up from the devastation of the 1990 Luzon earthquake.The festival includes floats that are covered mostly with flowers not unlike those used in Pasadena's Rose Parade. The festival also includes street dancing, presented by dancers clad in flower-inspired costumes, that is inspired by the Bendian, an Ibaloi dance of celebration that came from the Cordillera region.

Who wouldn’t want to open the door to a fancy restaurant? This restaurant has its glow that is very intriguing from the outside and all you want to do is step inside and wander.

Surprisingly when I enter Chelsea Grand Café it’s not that wide kind of resto, so you can literary feel the sophisticated, classy, intimate ambiance.

The name of this café is inspired from the Chelsea market in New York City. this is not just a restaurant but also a market they also sells various items, from wine to kitchen accessories to condiments/spices.

 

I’m always walking around Serendra since our house is just outskirts of BGC. I admit there’s so many attractive restaurants in Serendra but I don’t know, I always find my eyes glancing at this Japanese restaurant that is indeed with a very catchy design.

                                                                                           I love its simple wood parallel lines

Heaven granted, I was able to visit and try the flavor they offer that everyone seems to love.

As I step inside, I know my mind tells me it’s a Japanese restaurant but there’s a mixture of zen like feeling and it really makes me want to have a very relaxing massage. haayyy!

 

We all know that art is a expression or application of human creative skill and imaginations, that I think I have deep down in my heart but humbly considered as not an artist yet. (Compared to some artist I look up to.)

As a folkloric dancer I accept that (marami pa ko’ng kakaining bigas) there’s a lot of hulled rice grains I still need to eat. Maybe if I establish my own dance company in the future and choreograph my own dance steps I can tap my shoulder and say I’m an artist lol!

Moving forward to the Propaganda exhibit I attended last Feb. 5, happened at Lopez Memorial Museum & Library in partnership with Samsung Electronics Philippines Corp, #Propaganda2015 will bring you a different way to view art by using their Samsung tablets, Samsung tv and other Samsung mobile devices.

I also had a chance to try and point a Samsung tablet in a Juan Luna art masterpiece and saw how it animates, that definitely gives an amaze facial reaction.
