Merry Christmas Party With The Road Trippers!

Manual To Lyf's LakBayani came to life with the growth of my travels around the metro and beyond. As a traveler, I am happy that I belong to a group of blogger friends who shared the passion and fun of traveling and enjoying the journey, The Road Trippers.

The group started small with a handful of members who are regular bloggers for events. Eventually we decided to form a group that will share our experiences and also have a travel event organized by us. And through the years, the group grew and more friends joined in.

Red Planet Hotel Brings A New Tune To Hospitality

Budget hotels are growing in numbers due to increased number of backpackers, and thrifty  travelers who opt to go with a simpler hotel accommodation for their journey. Especially for those who just need a place to sleep and relax, budget hotels provides that without spending a lot.

Leading the names in budget hotels in the South East Asian region and even here in the Philippines, Tunes Hotel is the brand travelers know. In recent events, the parent company Red Planet has rebranded the chain of hotels to their name.

In the official launch of the brand in the country, it also unveiled the 10th hotel for Red Planet located in Amorsolo in Makati City. This brings the number of Red Planet rooms in the country to 1,720, reinforcing Red Planet as the largest international hotel owner/operator in the Philippines.

Free Admission To Ayala Museum This July!

Yes, if you are a museum junkie like me, it would mean a big deal for you and me that Ayala Museum will be giving free admissions this coming July 25! The day will also be filled with a set of side events giving a very unqiue museum experience!

However there is just one important condition guests are requested to do in return: “Be kind.”

This event will zero in on the concept of kindness—particularly through inspiring artist activities and the generation of awareness for AFI’s volunteer opportunities.

On Saturday, July 25, 2015 from 9AM to 6PM, visitors are free to enter Ayala Museum to enjoy its permanent exhibitions on Philippine historical events, pre-Hispanic gold from the Philippines, indigenous Philippine textiles, Asian trade ceramics, and Fernando Zobel paintings, which have inspired visitors for generations. Also on view are the following changing exhibitions: Beautiful Handicrafts of Tohoku, Japan, a traveling exhibition brought by The Japan Foundation Manila to showcase the traditional crafts of areas struck by the 2011 earthquake and tsunami; From Citadel to City: Juan Luna paintings and 19th century prints from the BPI Collection, showing the parallels of the development of Juan Luna’s art to social realism and the rise of the city of Manila as seen in the works on display; and Felix Laureano: First Filipino Photographer which exhibits the work of the Panay-born pioneer.
