Planning a Cruise Holiday

Some people love cruise holiday but there are others who do not enjoy the cruise because they might have suffered seasickness the whole time they were on board the ship. There are short and long cruises to fit your budget and the choice of cruise tour packages. For a first timer, you do not know what to expect when you agreed to join your friends on a whale watching cruise San Diego and you are feeling a bit nervous. If you are worried about getting seasickness, prescription for seasickness can be obtained over the counter. Whale watch cruises generally takes about three to four hours long. Make sure whatever you have with you is not easily blown away e.g. the hat or the scarf you will be wearing. Wear suitable shoes for better balancing on a boat. Remember to bring along your camera to capture your experience and a pair of Polarized sunglasses to enable you to see clearer. Once on board, there is a welcome orientation where your safety during the whale watch is …

Photo Diary: Baguio

Friday, June 23 5 AM We arrived Friday morning in the cold air of Baguio and went to our hotel to see if we can check-in earlier than schedule. Negative. Meaning we have to wait until 2 PM considering we arrived as early as 5 AM. We decided to leave our luggage in the hotel and started roaming around in the City of Pines. 8 AM: Laperal White House and Teachers Camp It was my first time to visit some of the haunted places in Baguio. I used to pass through these two places but haven’t got the chance to see them up close. As early before lunch, my friends and I decided to visit Laperal White House and Teachers Camp. These places gave me chills, tbh. 11 AM: Cafe By The Ruins Dua Before heading back to the hotel, we decided to have our lunch at Cafe by The Ruins. At first, I thought we’re heading to the original branch but we went to Dua in Upper Session Road instead. Well, I didn’t know …

Team Building in Baguio by Tree Top Adventure

March 24-27 — I, together with a team of bloggers, went to Baguio to participate in team building activities which were facilitated by Tree Top Adventure Baguio. As an employee who has never experienced team building in the company I am currently working, I was grateful for the team building exercises. It tested our balancing skills, patience towards repeated mistakes, and teamwork. These activities helped me voice out my own opinion. It was my first time meeting majority of the bloggers on this event. So you may think how it’ll be hard for strangers to connect, help each other, and aim for results in a different setting. Here’s a list of five reasons why team building is important. Socializing and networking. Making friends is one of the best ways to increase productivity. It boosts morale in the workplace, and also widens for a network. This is also important for bloggers since we aim for traffic or bigger audience. Develops problem-solving skills. Work crisis can happen anytime in the workplace. So the help of every team member …
