    Amen to that! Klook helped me so much in so many ways. I'm a DIY traveler and I don't join guided tours - I'd rather explore on my own (I enjoy my freedom hahaha). On my recent trip to Osaka (as in last March), I availed most of my tickets via Klook: JR Kansai, JR Rail, and USJ. It's why I advertise them too. I wouldn't promote something that I don't use or don't believe in.

Munting Buhangin Beach Camp - Batangas

Its light brown sand, sprinkled with different kinds of shells, is cleaned daily by the dedicated staff of the resort. Sadly, during my visit, a broken piece of glass buried in the sand gave one of my toes a deep cut but I know that it's just a rare case (no one needs to be fired) and nobody wanted that to happen.
