Dear Luna, “Mummy, please, let’s not eat animals and other creatures!” We were on our way to Henri’s first birthday earlier when you blurted this out. Bubba and I got no idea where this came from. We laughed in disbelief. A vegetarian by choice at the age of four. So adorable. True to your word, […]
Dear Luna, Less than 24 hours, and we’re already packing for our journey back home. Around past three in the afternoon yesterday, we arrived here at Holy Land Beach Resort in Bolinao, Pangasinan. Not the best on this strip, but it has a pool, and it’s relatively cheap. Like, P2,300 cheap for an air-conditioned room […]

Bubba and I couchsurfed at his place about fours years ago in Bacolod when mumma was two months pregnant with you.

Dear Luna, On the last day of 2011, we were invited by the owner of Hotel Regional (we’re still in Palenque, Mexico) to join him and his employees for lunch at the hall just across our room. I reckon we were the only guests around at that time. The invitation was timely for we were […]
Dear Luna, Just settled in our gorgeous Marriott Santa Clara Hotel room (sponsored by the company that bubba’s got a job interview with). We’re all exhausted. And it feels so good to lay our weary bones on a plush bed — in your case, a posh crib. Today, bubba drove almost the whole day from […]
