  • Whirlwind weekend: Makati Shangri-La

    After a week of fun and stress and excitement, I had the unexpected opportunity to relax with an overnight stay in Makati Shangri-La with my lovely mother, sister and tita.

  • Links and reads

    I’ve been remiss in my attempt to come off as less narcissistic in this blog. As a result, here are precious internet links which are (surprise! surprise!) not feministic / against organized religion / controversial in nature or about me. Mostly. Survival must!  There is now, in fact, a way to drink dirty water without the long…

  • Must-Reads from Around the World

    Time’s tweet was a tad misleading; I thought it would be about books. Here’s a daily global briefing instead.
