What To Do In Davao: Visit Eden Nature Park

-
When in Davao, one thing that I suggest is to allot a day to visit and enjoy Eden Nature Park. Its95%man made forest. Man made because decades ago, in the early 70s, this part of Barangay Eden was a victim of illegal logging. What the Ayalas of Davao did was to restore it by planting trees and now, more and more people are able to experience a wonderful life in a forest. 

We arrived at the park before lunch time. We decided to have buffet lunch first. Food was okay, notexceptional, but it was okay. What I loved most was one of the desserts, the Camote-Ube Float! 

Although the buffet lunch was not exceptionally good, the view at their buffet area is really good! It's a glass type restaurant and the green view is amazing! It really feels refreshing there!

After lunch, we had the chance to see the whole place. It is advisable to join the shuttle tour because it is impossible to see the whole place by walking, especially if you're beating the time! The shuttle tour lasted for 45 minutes - 1 Hour.  You can enjoy their shuttle tour for photo ops with the beautiful flowers, watch a mini show & get an overview on how Lumad's live their lives and last stop of the mini tour was to get a closer look at the forest and the herb gardens.

And of course, after the tour, we headed to the activities area to try the rides! I was most excited to ride the Sky Cycle and I was not disappointed. It was actually a good thing that it was a two way ride. First ride was really nerve wracking, but the second ride was really fun! I enjoyed the view! 


I wanted to try the Sky Swing, good thing my partner said no. When we were watching the brave souls who went for it, we couldn't help but feel a lot of things for them. lol. We were admiring them for being so brave, we felt bad because they were so afraid up there, we were happy because, well, it was fun to watch them having fun but screaming their hearts out!

We actually have swimming in our list of activities but their pool is only open until 5PM. We decided to just head back to the hotel and rest for a bit before going out for dinner. 


Buffet Lunch: P550.00
Shuttle Tour: P120.00
Sky Cycle: P200.00
Sky Rider: P120.00
Sky Swing: P300.000 (Solo) / P400.00 (Tandem)

Hair Matters

When it comes to my hair, I always play safe. Hair check! Last time I had my hair really short? Hmmm, when I was in elementary school! I think I was in second grade? I don't remember if it was my grandmother or my mother who decided that I should have my hair cut short. I was just a little kid so I had no choice but to oblige. I obviously did not like how it turned out. It was actually because of that experience that I don't ever want to make a dramatic change to my hair. I remember how some of my classmates made a not so good comment with my then new haircut. THE hair can actually make you (feel) really ugly or pretty. So hair matters, right? RIGHT??? See, it's always in (almost) the same length. Straight. The only difference I actually make is the fringe. I either have it pulled back, full, side swept or none at all! And my face is asymmetrical (plus big) so yeah. I really don't have that much choice. I don't have the face which is flattering to short h

Lips Are Sealed

Lately, I have been playing with the make up that I have. And also, I've been watching make up gurus once again. I started watching make up tutorials when Michelle Phan was just starting to get famous. You know, when she used to film in her room and with her then signature background music and very calm voice. I still love her, it's just that, since I went back watching make up tutorials few months back, I noticed how she changed! In a good way, of course. I am so happy for her! Anyway, enough of Michelle and back to me and my make up. lol. I do not have so much, but I think I have a lot for someone who claims that she's not into make up! Especially lipsticks. So the main reason why I went back to watching Michelle Phan and started watching other gurus is because of the stuff that my Aunt gave me.  I do not want to put those make up into waste, so I thought, why not give it a try! Ha! I started to really use make up in college, but it had to be minimal or else, Siste
