2022 Recap 2023 Restart
Thank you Jay for the hospitable welcome during our trip.
… Duyan sa Kinabuhayan (fish nets) Rustic and homey living room. black cat pose An attempt to be scary… Enzo and Anton portrait Inuman na (drinking) with Jay!
This is the same concept in the windows where it was designed to act as picture frame (both ways) to capture the outside nature ambiance or the homey ambiance of the cafe. … I took a shot of the bed with kulambo (nets) so practically you could already see that staying at Kinabuhayan is party and drinking all nights and the beds are just used when you are really just tired or drunk already 🙂 There is also a tree house which Jay uses when all the other Kubo’s are occupied. … It would be difficult to go all the way up here when you are already drunk 🙂 Here is a backyard photo of Kinabuhayan Cafe MORE INFORMATION: Kinabuhayan Cafe Winston @ +63 917 327-1106 Jay @ +63 917 368-0054 Tel# +63 42-565 6828 Website: Kinabuhayancafe.
I don’t really have one per se but just so that we can proceed with it I said that maybe we should look into the reason why I cant seem to hold on to any long term relationship and perhaps look into the reason why at 33 years old, I am still single. … At this point, I believe I fell asleep (sleeping is Delta level, I am supposed to go down only to the Alpha level) I heard her calling my name loudly, like Lazarus being called back to life, and for a split second I realized my mistake and jerk back. … We also didn’t make any sense as to the name of bride as it appears in the invitation and the woman I met through Emil and eventually get married to.
a Bohemian Welcome
…a traditional Filipino dining setting
…Bamboo and Nipa Hut
The entire trip is just about one hour and 30 minutes without traffic but on the way back it was 3 hours with extreme traffic (considering it was christmas season). I’m glad that Kusina Salud already started to offer breakfast as early as 9am but of course you need to book in advance. … Tapang Kalabao (P160). slow braised water buffalo “tapa” served with garlic rice, scrambled egg and fresh organic papaya atchara. Most expensive breakfast set and the least yummy among the options. … I’m glad Nina was there when we arrive and we had a nice chat with her — very approachable and ma-chika 🙂 Here is our entire group– Viaje del Sol: The Fellowship of Brobo.

I first heard of his tour from my brother, of course through this blog , and when a friend from Fil-Am Photo Auey Santos volunteered to organize a trip for those of us who are coming home for the holidays (I am an OFW) , I know I have to be counted.
…On a parallel note, we also learned of how Imelda rose to fame, rags to riches style as well, when she “manipulated” the Governor of Manila to give her the title of Miss Manila.
…* From Avenida to Quiapo Church (our final stop), we merged and squeezed like blood that passes through the arteries of a busy heart—the heart of Manila that is and was.
