Located in Sibunag, Guimaras, Nagarao Island is a wonderful weekend hideaway when you want to get off the grid, unplug and recharge. Although the ten-hectare island is no longer as lush as when I first visited decades ago, nevertheless it still offers a soothing, healing vibe for stressed-out city dwellers.
There are now more amenities (love the Karaoke) and there's no corkage fee and free use of pool and kitchen.
To book, contact Nagarao Island on Facebook or message them at 09216605702.

Sepanx (separation anxiety for non-millennials) no more as the first pet hotel Yukimito Pet Hotel and Boutique in Iloilo City has opened last October 2022 to cater to furkids whose furparents have to go on business or personal travel. Difficult as it is to leave your pet dog or cat at home with no one to look after them, you have to resort to strategies such as paying/bribing family members (that happened to me) and friends to look out for your beloved cats and dogs. It's hard to enjoy a local or overseas vacation when all you can think about are your pets and the worst case scenario that could happen to them like starving or getting into an accident.
I'm really happy Yukimito Pet Hotel has opened their doors to accommodate furkids for errands care (1-4 hours), daycare (5-10 hours) and home care (overnight). I wish they opened earlier though (like years before) because a pet hotel service is really in demand.
The pet boarding rates differ based on the package and size of your pet. I went on an island trip just recently and true to form, I have no one to look after my precious cat Macchiato. Thank God there is Yukimito pet hotel!

There are tons of nice Christmas presents you can give to yourself, family and friends from Bakal Lokal, an online and physical store that is the brainchild of Youth First Initiative Philippines in partnership with DOST-VI. If you love to shop in your pajamas, Bakal Lokal's online shop is very navigable and easy to use but for people like myself who enjoy the tactile experience of browsing products, I highly recommend visiting the Bakal Lokal brick and mortar store located at AAMC Barbo Building in Jalandoni Street, Jaro district. The shop is very cozy and the handmade goods are displayed in a very attractive modern rustic style. The goods are mostly manufactured in small batches so everything looks one-of-a-kind. Definitely no soul less, mass produced products at Bakal Lokal. Every product feels handmade and that's why I love it. Your recipients will love it as well.
After you are done with your shopping, you can even grab a favorite brew at the in-store cafe. Hitting two birds with one stone I should say!
Happy holiday shopping! Remember to shop and promote homegrown products made with love in Iloilo.
