Akyat: Mt. Lubog
Sunday
December 13, 2015
On most climbs, my legs get sore first, usually followed by my arms and shoulders when there are technical parts. But in my Mt. Lubog adventure, it was my butt that took most of the beating. Why? The answer is just one compound word: habal-habal.
Akyat: Mt. Manalmon and Mt. Gola

I did not expect to follow up climbing Luzon’s highest mountain by climbing the country’s lowest mountains. I found this really funny and reflected on how life gives us ironic moments like this. And when the mountains call, it’s hard to resist. So here’s my dayhike into the sitio Madlum mountains.
Akyat: Mt. Pulag
Saturday to Monday
November 28-30, 2015
Standing at 2,922 meters above sea level, the summit of Mt. Pulag is the highest point in Luzon. And since climbing the tallest mountain in this island group isn’t enough, we decided to hike up the “killer” Akiki trail.
Isip: Turning memories into words
If it’s not that obvious yet, I am a sucker for documenting things. From itineraries to lists, to everyday happenings, I love collecting memories and placing them somewhere I can revisit them.
This is probably why I have a notable collection of notebooks. Waaaay more notebooks than I can use on a regular basis.

Words can’t express how happy I am with this climb. This has always been a goal climb of mine and after achieving it, I wanna keep coming back. Here are the nitty-gritty details of my Tarak ridge (1,130+) dayhike.
Akyat: Mt. Hapunang Banoi
Sunday

Hapunang Banoi, Haponang Banoy, or Hapunang Banoy, depending on who you ask, is the last mountain in the Wawa area that I haven’t climbed. So naturally, I organized a climb on the first date available. Thankfully, everything went according to plan and I was able to finish this wonderful mountain.
Isip: Wishlist for the Fit Traveler
Christmas season is already here, as evidenced by the songs being played almost everywhere in the city. From karinderyas to grocery stores, jingles and carols are being played as people go about with their daily lives.
Christmas is also gift-giving season! So if you have some friends who are into fitness and traveling like I am, you might be thinking about what to get them this Yuletide season. Thankfully, I have compiled this short list of things that are both needs and wants for the traveling fitness buff.
