Swissotel and (in) Berlin

Hello Friendships,

I am not sure why I can't blog these days, pero heto na =)

I want to blog about Swissotel kaso major fail na di ko sya nakuhanan ng picture, pero all in all very nice ang experience namin with them, the staffs were very helpful, location is very nice as in shoppingan ang street na yun, very comfortable ang bed and nice toilet and bath too, nagustuhan ko yung separate yung shower at bath tub, kasi medyo takot ako sumampa at bumaba sa bath tub before at after ko maligo plus medyo aware ako kung nababasa ko na yung floor, kaya like ko talaga yung separate shower, malaki din yung bath tub nila, nagkasya kami ni mark (hahaha ooops censored). We had a very early flight and we arrived sa hotel about 10 plus na pero the hotel let us checked in na agad agad, super winner sa akin yun kasi after ng flight pagod and gusto ko mag shower muna.

And if you are coming from Tegel Airport less than 20 euro lang ang taxi from airport to Swissotel di ba winner, di kasi ako nakaresearch hehehe buti na lang si mark magaling sa distance distance na cacalculate nya kung malayo ba itaxi o hindi hehehe,, 17 euro lang ang alam ko ung binayaran namin, pero nung pauwi na kami saktong 20 euro yung binayad namin sa taxi. Nahirapan ako sa train sa Berlin, kasi sa isang track ibat ibang trains yung dumadaan kaya kailangan alam mo kung ano oras yung train na sasakyan kasi matagal din ang interval nila. Hindi ako mahilig sa museum ha hehehe kaya kada kanto lang ako picture hihihi masaya na ako nun. Medyo nabitin kami sa shopping pero kasi mas panalo sa spain magshopping kasi nasa 20-23 percent sa pagkakaalala ko ha yung tax refund, samantalang sa berlin 11 percent lang. Ang init pati dun nung nagpunta kami sobra siguro mas mainit pa kesa sa pinas kasi nung Sunday punta namin sa Potsdam ang init grabe hindi ako maka pose hahaha,,, yung mineral water na hawak ko umiinit din hehehe.

Yung breakfast nga lang sa hotel e napakasimple hehehe,, medyo nadisappoint ako pero carry lang

Honestly hindi ako naimpress sa Berlin, mas nagandahan ako sa Barcelona, sa Barcelona kasi maganda ang paligid, mura ang shopping hahaha,, pero more on talaga maganda every kanto, masarap ang food, sa Berlin siguro dahil di ko pa gaanong na explore pero hindi ako nagandahan sa kanya parang nothing special.

But I'm still happy coz I got to see/experience again the things close to my heart.

Like this Cotton On Shop na halos kaliwa't kanan ata meron sa singapore, too bad di ko sya napasok major fail talaga, yung first day kasi namin I thought warm up lang hahaha pero hindi pala mabilis dumaan ang oras sarado na sila hahaha,,

I miss KFC so much!!! Had to buy a bucket of chicken for pasalubong sa friends namin dito and for us na din.

and this ... =)

Hindi ako maHard Rock before e pero dito kasi palagi meron sa trip namin. more on TGIF ako e and chillis before.

for Attaractions wala talaga kami gaano napuntahan hahaha,, hindi ako mahilig,, yung Potsdam Sunday yun kung bukas nga mga shops nun baka di din namin pinuntahan

Travel: Hirtshals Weekend Getaway =)

Hello beauties!!!

Musta na kau? Im perfectly fine, pati weather dito fine na fine hahahah joke,, mainit na ngayon, ganda ng weather.

We had a mini get away last weekend, we were lucky to be able to join the very nice, warm and funny group in this trip, we really had a very wonderful cruising-bonding together,,, and it was a steal because we booked it in a very very low price.

Sa loob pa lang quota na kami sa pictures sulit na ang bayad namin :)

ang saya parang field trip talaga, too bad I forgot to take pictures of our room. This was my first time to ride a cruise ship, although small lang ito compared sa aking inaasam asam na Superstar Virgo e I am super happy pa rin that I've experienced this.

We left Stavanger Saturday night and we arrived in our destination at 7:30 am, Hirtshals is a small town in Denmark, e Sunday kaya mostly ang mga shops ay close, but still we enjoyed our bonding time together, and my first time to see a lighthouse in person, naakyat ko pa, and had a breathtaking view from top.

The lighthouse

Thank you guys for a weekend filled with joy, funny jokes, wonderful adventures, bonding moments and happy conversations,,, let's do this again!!! =)))

Have a great week ahead friendships!!! =)))

Pang Kikay Lang =)

Good morning Friendships!!! Hope you are all enjoying the weekend. =)

I am a bit sad kasi talo ang Ginebra, fanatic lang hehehe, if only I can share here the video that my husband took while I was watching ginebra game months ago, hihihi!!!

Anyways, I want to share you the kikay stuff I hauled from our recent trip. We only bring clothes for the next day because we really planned to buy na lang clothes and even underwear wala akong na pack kundi yung pang next day lang. I just did not have time and energy to post the clothes na puro best buys. I bought some dresses na 6-12 euro lang, i took the opportunity na talaga kasi pag may gathering ang mahal dito ng dresses at mas mura pa din kesa sa asos saka yung recent na purchase ko may tax pa din, leggings na tig 3-7 euro, and blouses na 4-10 euro, like itong suot ko dito sa picture na ito 10 euro lang from Zara.

zara (10 euro), pants I bought in their dept store (12 euro)

Zara blouse (12 euro), ito ung nakasama sa nawala ko, kaya 2nd time ko ng binili sya, like ko kasi yung print

Bershka Blouse (4 euro), I bought some of this kind na tig 4 euro lang, kakatguwa di ba.

Nakabili din ako ng jackets na sale din =)

I am ready na for the future months na walang shopping ng damit hehehe, and without worrying kung may isusuot ako o wala =)

Oh well, ito na aking mga pang paarte =)

from L-R: Versace Bright Crystal Absolu, Clarisonic Mia 2, Clarisonic Extra Brush, Clinique Deep Comfort Body Lotion, Longchamp Bag, Urban Decay Naked 3, Urban Decay Eye primer (free from Naked 3), Mac lipstick in Morange, Martini Asti (wala lang arte lang kaya naisama sa pic), Zara shoes

Versace Bright Crystal Absolu: Versace Bright Crystal is my favorite perfume nasa SG pa lang ako, and I am happy that they created it in Eau de Parfum which has longer lasting scent than the old bright crystal and I just learn that lotus flower also contributes with the flowery scent of it =)

I bought this 90ml perfume in the airport for 719 nok, when I saw it here found out that the 50ml is selling here for 650 nok, sana pag naubos na sya timing na may dadaan sa airport para makabili, laki ng difference e.

Clarisonic Mia 2: It is included in my post 5 Impractical Wants, hubby is really a spoiler =), I am super happy with this kahit di ko pa sya nagagamit hehehe,, mahilig ako sa pag wawash ng face sobra, bought it in Sephora for 149 euro plus the extra brush for 25 euro minus 21% tax refund =)

Clinique Deep Comfort Body Lotion: From the past months I never experienced yung parang nagbabatakan yung skin sa pagka dry which results itchiness lalo sa parts ng back ng legs ko, actually nakita ko lang ito sa airport na nakasale for 179 nok hehehe,, go na ako try lang if ok. 

Longchamp Bag: finally nagkaroon ulit ako nito, ang mura lang nya sa airport ng amsterdam 57 euro lang, kailangan ko kasi talaga ito kasi wala akong everyday bag, tapos umuulan ulan pa dito kaya kailangan ko talaga ng waterproof na bag.

UD Naked 3: Mentioned this in my previous blog post, still untouched medyo takot lang akong galawin sya hehehe, gusto ko lang syang titigan =) 

Mac Lipstick in Morange: I like orange color now for my lips, nakaka bata lang ng konti hehehe,, like ko din sana si Candy Yum Yum very pink sya pero no budget na hehehe =)

Zara Shoes: Sobrang sakit na ng paa ko sa boots na suot ko kaya basta kinuha ko na lang ito sa nakasale may size 9 kaya gora na, at take note 9 euro lang din sya, ang light at comfortable sa paa, I doubt nga lang kung magagamit ko yan dito baka sa summer pa. 

Martini Asti: wala lang chorva lang, pero ito yung favorite kong champagne,,, tsalap tsalap =)

Super late na pala, time for me to sleep. Happy Sunday!!! =)

Disneyland Paris: Do you believe

Dreams do come true.... Thank you Lord for everything : )

My favorite lines in the song Do You Believe,,,

If you want to see a dream come true

Well, it isn't hard to do

From wherever you are, make a wish upon star

Do you Believe in Magic...

And in dreams coming true?

If you believe in magic, it can happen for you

You never know who might be comin' to call

Cause it's a small world after all

And it's magic if you believe

Just close your eyes

Make a wish and believe

Travel Kwento: Paris France

Hello friendships!!! We were back last Tuesday from our 10 days vacation, this is the best birthday gift I received so far,,, at dahil din sa schedule ni Mark sa work at yung price difference ng ticket we decided to sched our trip a week after my birthday. I was really excited as in my field trip na naman kasi ang bata hehehe,, the night before our flight we attended pa a mini get together ng officemates ni Mark,,, after we got home, di na ako makatulog hahaha,,

We arrived in Paris around 11 am, direct flight yung nakuha namin from Stavanger via SAS airline, medyo paranoid ako kasi mag mrt kami from airport to our hotel e balita talaga na madaming mandurukot sa Paris, iniwasan din naming di maglabas ng map para di mahalata na tourists kami, iba iba din kasi ang lahi dun kaya basta paranoid ako. When we reached the hotel we were informed that we can check in at 3pm pa kaya iniwan na namin yung luggage namin muna dun, gora na agad kami kasi sayang ang oras,,, from Montmartre where our hotel is located, we looked for a Hop on Hop off bus,, for me it is a must talaga,, hassle free ito, the bus will tour you around Paris, we got their 2 days ticket, eto yung pwede kang bumaba in a certain area na gusto mo tapos if tapos ka na magtour dun you can wait for another bus para sa next destination. Safe pa yung feeling ko kasi halos lahat kami tourists dun hindi makikisiksik sa mrt.

Ang ganda lang talaga ng scenery sa Paris, sobra ako in love sa ganda nya at lalong iba yung feeling ng finally e meet and greet na with Eiffel Tower

My signature pose, mapapaindak ka talaga sa tuwa,,, =)

eating crepe with Eiffel at my back

View from Trocadero.

Trocadero is the best place to capture Eiffel like this,,, super lovely!!!

Naachieve naman namin yung chillax enjoy trip na ine aim namin, yun nga lang may mga lugar kaming di napuntahan, like Versailles, Jardin Du Luxembourg, yung Louvre Museum di kami nakapasok hahaha,,, kasi yung second day Monday, e late riser kami parehas ni hubby, kaya mga 11 am na kami nakalabas ng hotel e since walking distance lang from our hotel ang Sacre Coeur Basilica of Montmartre e yun inuna namin kasi alam namin gabi na ulit kami dadating baka di na kami makapunta, kaya if di kayo early person kulang ung 3 nights sa Paris siguro dagdagan pa kahit 2 days.

View of Paris from Sacre Coeur,,,

Ayun nga since MOnday nga ung Second day namin, late na kami nakapunta ng Louvre, nagpicture picture pa kami sa labas,,,

Close pala ang Museum pag Tuesday wahehehe,,, sa tuesday e Disneyland day namin,,, non-negotiable na yun hahaha,,, 

Sa Seine River 

Malamig sa Paris nung punta namin at medyo umuulan ulan din, mahangin pa kaya lalo malamig. 

May kwento ako about sa toilet sa Paris yung makikita sa sidewalk hehhee,, ihing ihi na talaga ako nun tapos nadaanan namin yung Toilet, paglabas nung matandang lalaki pumasok agad ako hehehe,, tapos pinipigilan ako nung matanda di sya marunong mag English buti na lang may dumaan inexplain sa amin na after gamitin un paglabas maglilinis yun ng kusa bago ulit magamit,, ang bonggels di ba,, kaya malinis na sya pagpasok ko,,, sana sa Pinas may ganun din,,, 

and we ended our Day 2 in Paris sa Hard Rock. Mga 1 am na ata kami nakaalis dun, medyo hassle lang kasi malayo yung hotel namin sa Champ Elysees area, nag taxi na kami pauwi nagulat ako kasi mura lang yung taxi 7 euro lang from Hard Rock hanggang sa hotel namin sa Montmartre.
