    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.

Japan Diaries 2: Day 16

Day 16  June 1 , 2018 Gifu - Nagano Road Trip Day 2 A pleasant morning to you my dear reader, today is the second day of our Gifu -Nagano Trip. It is also our 16th day in the  Land of the Rising Sun . Early morning Onsen dip at Honjin Hiranoya Bekkan Today, we plan to explore Takayama City in the morning and then Kamikochi in the afternoon. However, before everything else, I made sure to wake up very early to take one final dip at Honjin Hiranoya Bekkan 's onsen because I know that I won't have a chance to do it later as we'd only eat our complimentary breakfast before finally checking out of our ryokan.  Strictly NO TATTOOs! Read more about Onsen Etiquette HERE . Time to take a dip! Unlike last night, I already overcame my embarrassment of being naked in an onsen. I can now walk proudly in front of other men in my birthday suit. How did I do it? I bombarded my head with the idea that these guys do not know who I am and vice versa. I finished my onsen expe

Located on a roadside outside the town of Lucban in the province of Quezon, Hermano Pule Shrine is a monument/shrine erected in remembrance of a Filipino hero that is also a son of the province. Hermano Pule Shrine Hermano Pule Shrine Details Hermano Pule  also Hermano Puli or Brother Pule in English was born on July 22, 1814, in the town of Lucban in what was still called the province of Tayabas (now Quezon). His real name was Apolinario de la Cruz. He was very religious and charismatic. Sadly, being a native during the Spanish Colonial Era would mean that being a priest was a bad choice. It was during this time that secularization was a big issue. Natives were not trusted by their Spanish counterparts hence, they were not given significant positions in any parishes. Aside from that the Filipino priests or  indios  were barred from joining any Orders making them aliens in their own vocation.  Hermano Pule Shrine - Lucban, Quezon Because of his charisma and piety, Hermano Pule   f

During our first visit, my wife, daughter, and I only managed to visit the Ninomaru Palace and parts of the Ninomaru Garden as we were set to meet a friend that day. During our second visit, we were joined by my parents and siblings, and this time we aimed to explore more of the castle grounds.  Nijo Castle - Kyoto City, Kyoto Prefecture I learned from the first visit that Nijo Castle can get very crowded easily and there is a usual line at its ticket booth, so to address this, we preordered our tickets via Klook and was lucky enough to
