Attention All Filipino Cashiers

This post was conceived because of a recent event that I experienced in downtown Calbayog City. It’s not the first time that it has happened to me and most likely will not be the last. It has not only been cashiers in Calbayog City either so I’m willing to bet that I am also not the only one that this has happened to. In fact I believe that I have read a few posts and/or comments...

Calbayog City Music Museum

Last week when I was in the downtown Calbayog City area to pick up a brochure about the tourist attractions for the city from the tourism office, I found out something interesting. I found out a little bit of history about the Calbayog City tourism building. As I was leaving the tourism office, I noticed that to my right there was a museum looking place.

Recently I sent an e-mail to the YUM Corporation informing them of the mass construction going on here in Calbayog City.

If you too would like for a YUM restaurant to be here in Calbayog City (in addition to the KFC), please write to them and let them know your...

That is only...

Traveling from Calbayog City via Van

Well you asked for it and I got it. I walked down to all 4 of the shuttle van services here in Calbayog City and asked about their services. It wasn’t so easy either because of the language barrier, but I finally got enough information that I thought I could go ahead and write this post. I figure that if you need more information you can ask me and I’ll find out for you or, since...

Upgrading the Ciriaco Hotel and Resort in Calbayog City

Y’all probably noticed that recently I have made a few changes to the front page of the website. Or did you? I added the new photo gallery because I just could not figure out how to do the old one and it was bugging me. I kind of like this new one better, but it’s not really whether or not I like it better, it whether y’all do. I guess since it was not working correctly...
