Vegetarian Food Find #2, #3 & #4: Pipino's...
As declared in my Eating Plants post, I’m dedicating more of myself to the pursuit of tasty vegetarian / vegan fare, either through my own experiments or through fun vegetarian / vegan food finds. And while I previously featured Grill Queen’s tofu BBQ, this will be my first full-fledged vegetarian resto feature. :)
I first found out about Pipino maybe early last year when I first saw their menu...

Just booked my ticket to Siem Reap in July
This is happening.
I haven’t divulged details about my upcoming travel plans here largely because I have NO concrete plans on my trip yet. But the one way ticket has been booked. Still trying to decide when and from which country I should embark on my return flight to Manila.
Oh, how I dislike planning. But it is a necessary evil for frugal travelers.
Sighs & palpitations, Jen

My Yoga Beginnings with Ananda Marga Yoga in...
I’ve been interested in yoga for as long as I can remember, but with the steep price of yoga classes in most of Metro Manila, I couldn’t maintain yoga practice, given my spending priorities (i.e. travel).
My previous attempts / ideas on starting my yoga practice
I resorted to subscribing to online yoga journals, and reading up on yoga poses, but there is only so much you can do without...

New header at http://nomadmanager.tumblr.com/
Still not too hot about my blog’s look, but my limited knowledge of HTML & CSS, and my laziness to devote more time to learning it are rather restricting. I just know I wanted it to be more travel-oriented.
Wanted to do something more organic though but still figuring out what elements I’d like to use.
In the meantime, a Nomad Manager boarding pass.
Gooood Friday, Jen
