The summer season is almost here and that only means vacation for the kiddos. As parents we want to make the most out of the few months they are off from school and the planning of activities start as early as now. For me, there are tons of things we can do. Enroll them in summer activities, like art classes, sports clinics or even go abroad. But in case that you can’t go far or plan lengthy activities, you can always go on a swimming day! :) One of the nice experiences we’ve had lately was from Wet Park Adventure Lagoon locate at the Venice Grand Canal Mall. Sharing with you a glimpse of our fun day there through this blog in case you want to go in the future. :)

LONG TIME NO PERSONAL POST!
Thought I'd start of with that because I seriously lack personal posts here and honestly, it's quite sad since this blog has always been dedicated to sharing my life. But priorities need my attention more, like caring for Moon and of course, work, which is more Instagram based now, so more time is dedicated there. But I promised myself that I would at least write a year-ender post, so here I am! :)

Ever since COVID-19 happened and strict lockdowns have been imposed and then lifted, the Hubby and I have always opted to keep the kids safely at home. For two years, we trusted our instincts as parents in not letting them out. We're also lucky that the kids have been so good to us and don't complain about being cooped up at home. We try our very best to keep them entertained and plan activities to lessen the boredom. But as parents, we know that being able to spend time outside is still something that kids would prefer.
Finally, after two years and much considerations, consulting mom friends, and often checking the 'PWEDE BATA' group on Facebook, the husband and I took the kids somewhere other than their grandparents' house (this was actually already a major breather for them) and the drive-thru. We recently took them to Angel Fields Nature Sanctuary in Tagaytay. :)

I never thought there would come a time that I would be writing more about traveling with friends. :) I'm so used to going with family that it didn't occur to me that someday i'd be in that boat. It started last year when I went on a trip with my best friend in the blogging world, Ana to Taiwan. That was a lot of fun and this year we planned another one for summer with our other bestie, Paul to CHIANG MAI! ^_^ I've been to Bangkok before when I was 12 years old, but never in other parts of Thailand, so this was something new and exciting for me + it was all our first time in the province of Chiang Mai. :)

On my last leg of my Taiwan in December post and it kinda makes me sad cos it's officially the end of it. But happy too cos I got to share this wonderful time with my husband in our dream country and closing this part makes me look forward to our next trips together.♥ :)
For our last day, we made sure to make the most of it like our past days in Taiwan, so like usual, we had our breakfast and headed for the train to the last station in Taipei - Tamsui!

Ever since the Dessert Museum opened last year, I think I probably have gone a total of 5x already but I'm not complaining! I have a big spot for cute and instagrammable places. ^_^ I really enjoyed taking lots of pictures the first time I went with the Hubby and the consecutive one with my son Asher. They have 8 sugar-filled rooms of happiness that you will love. But this year, they changed it up a bit by having 4 new rooms, so how can I resist another trip there, right? :) I must see it!
Been in the blogosphere for a decade and I love writing about fashion, beauty, motherhood, the arts and more. This is where you'll find things that make me happy. :)
