Escaped the nine to five.


ESCAPED THE NINE TO FIVE


Well it's never really a nine to five job in the hotel world nor does it suck when you work on holidays. I had just resigned from my job precisely 5 days ago and today was when I finally completed the necessary formalities. Following my last post after 2 years, a lot of things have happened. After completing my studies in Switzerland, I made way through southern Europe followed by Iceland then crossed to the east coast of America towards the west directing myself home in the Philippines.

Before reaching the finish line, I performed as a duty manager of a large 5-star hotel in the heart of the metro and after a year and a half, here I am now; a millennial taking his shot in online business with a large motivation of exploring the islands in the homeland or spots in South East Asia. 

In the next coming days, I will be heading over to Bali, Indonesia for the first time but hopefully it wouldn't take 2 years before I start adding up content on my page.

Thank you.

This is where you should’ve stayed the last time you went to Tagaytay.  Escala Hotel Tagaytay This is me. Follow me on Instagram: p.vittorio1 The initial plan was to leave BGC at 06:00H, but my two friends and I couldn’t resist the thought of relaxing by the pool overlooking the Taal volcano.   That’s exactly what we did upon arrival at around 12:00NN. We had booked this room over a month ago but it was moved free of charge due to unforeseen circumstances so I would have to thank Escala for being flexible with the reservation. We stayed over Escala hotel is a clean-cut, glass enclosed modern building situated just before you reach Sky Ranch in Tagaytay with panoramic views of the lake and the volcano. Upon arrival, we were greeted by large doors that paved the way to the open air lobby connected with a large terrace featuring a partial view of the Ferris wheel in Sky Ranch simulating a view of the iconic London Eye.   1.     Th...

How to disconnect from the world without the need to travel far

Image
It was 3am when we left Makati. After I came back to Manila from my hometown in Cebu last week, my friends and I headed up north to Zambales, which is about a 4 hour drive from Makati City. The scenery we aimed for was beyond the popular Philippine shores circulating heavily around the internet and we hit jackpot with the coves of Zambales.  Most international travel bloggers arrive the Philippines and cover three main spots "Palawan, Boracay and Cebu" . I absolutely love their content and everyday, I get inspired to create my own. My goal is to show people other spots that are barely developed highlighting the wonders of the country despite the common international impression.  Be prepared by the scenery that Zambales has to offer. The flora resembles nordic fjords splashed with savanna imagery on the inner side. The beaches of the coves sparkle bright during sunlight channeling the shores of Boracay and fades to earthly colours during dusk and sunrise....

I'M Hotel Makati (Is it the newest 5 star hotel?)

Image
Who is the new kid in town? I'M. (yes, that's the name of the hotel) After spending most of my days working in a hotel, I've adapted a feature that subconsciously notices details of service and even the architectural and engineering aspects. I am proud to be a Filipino hotelier and from now on, I will be exploring more of the country and hopefully SEA nations as I will take you along with me. I'M hotel bags the title as the newest 5-star hotel in the district. But is it really a 5 star hotel? The tall building soaring through the skyline of the CBD's outskirts located in Poblacion sparks curiosity mostly because of it's name. Similar to most, I asked why "I'M hotel" and up to now I still don't have an answer. After passing through the property along Makati avenue countless times, it was like a timelapse of the building's construction until a day came where they've put up a sign written onsen spa. Back in uni...
