“Life is too short to go the same place twice”

We are lucky to have Jørn be a part of our blog. He has  willingly accepted our invitation to share his travel experiences in and out of Oslo and help fellow travellers make their way to Norway.

He divides his time between work and ski in Oslo. A very busy person, indeed! In spite of his hectic schedule, Jørn has to give time to travel.  When on a trip, he either treks, climbs or skis, not to mention his rigid exploration of his destination.

When asked to name the countries he has travelled to, he simply gave some, and revealed that he could no longer remember other trips.

The Thrill of White Water Rafting

Written by: Angel de la Flor

I experienced the adventure that Cagayan de Oro City (CDO) is best known for - Whitewater Rafting and River Trekking. One of the most memorable moments of my life. For me, it was totally more than just a trip.

What's the adventure? It's a family style whitewater rafting in the mighty and beautiful Cagayan de Oro River, the longest river in the country. For the advance level, the adventure will cover 18.6 kilometres of its glorious 90 kilometres with 24 major rapids that will last for 3 hours.

I could see the boulders of rock with the strong and fierce water current.  It could literally eat me alive.  Growing up in Iloilo, I have seen many rivers and I have always believed that they're the creepiest body of water that God have ever created.  With all the mud underneath and the brown water, I never thought of having any kind of adventure like this.

Palawan is a Nature Lover's Haven

Written by: Marie Rea

As my family of four descended upon Puerto Princesa Airport, it has been apparent that we shall have a great and memorable time!

Puerto Princesa City Domestic Airport ~ PALAWAN

Firstly, we were greeted by our driver and guide with pearly white shell necklaces as soon as they spotted us, with the driver holding a square cardboard with my husband’s name on it. I suppose he was sticking out from the rest of the passengers inside the airport with his almost 6 feet tall frame and light brown hair.

We had a quick rest and got refreshed with glasses of ice cold black gulaman (grass jelly) drink in our native- themed accommodation called Puerto Pension. Then we started our half day city tour and marveled at the greenness of the place.
