The Southern Sierra Madre Expedition

Finally, after months of anticipation and preparation, our Southern Sierra Madre Expedition will push through. Together with Jake Segui, we will establish a trail starting from Mt. Balabac in the city of San Jose del Monte, Bulacan all the way to Biac-Na-Bato, still in the province of Bulacan. It's a long, arduous, and ambitious plan that will take us 5-7 days to complete, hopefully.

Kovea Adventure Gas Lantern Review


I was introduced to bushwalking/tramping/hiking as a young child in Boy Scouts and through my school physical/adventure education. After leaving school, I mainly did short daywalks until recently when I have started to again re-walk some of Luzon's key hiking routes and try walks I have yet to attempt. I mainly walk in the dry months, in Bulacan's central highlands areas. I prefer light gear, extended walks (3-5 days) in a group of 3 or shorter walks (1-3 days) walking solo. I would generally carry a base weight pack of around 8 kg-10 kg (17 lb-22 lb).

SealLine Baja Bag Review



This is a great product for many marine applications but it is also great for storing electronics while camping and days at the beach. I spent an entire vacation travelling with this bag to keep my stuff dry whenever I went swimming, to the beach, to waterfalls, to lakes, wherever there was water and it worked perfectly and doubled as a great day-pack bag. This is a must-have if going anywhere where your valuables might be exposed to water. Saves hassle, peace of mind, and potentially, of course, your electronics.

My Early Morning Walk



Just a quick video of my early morning walk in the woods. A perfect way to shave off some pounds. LOL.
