Flight chronicles of the backpacker Tutubi, with travelogues, pictures/photos/videos, travel guides, independent and honest reviews, affordable, recommended resorts and hotels (including inns, guesthouses, pension houses, lodges, hostels, condotels, bed and breakfast and other cheap accommodations), commuting guides, routes (sometimes street maps and GPS coordinates/waypoints) and driving directions to answer "how to get there" questions, information and tips on tourism, budget travel and living in Philippines, Exotic Asia and beyond!
Backpacking, independent travel, and flashpacking are cheaper than the "cheapest package tours" and promotional offers around but you can also use travel information for family vacations, even romantic honeymoon destinations.
More than the usual tourist spots and "places to see," this blog advocates heritage conservation, environmental protection, and history awareness for Filipinos, foreigners, and ex-pats wishing to explore Paradise Philippines and Exotic Asia!
Just a quick post on Tutubi's whereabouts during the Holy Week break: nice faraway beach? high up in the mountains? doing a Visita Iglesia? in a foreign trip?
nope, he'll just be home in Paete, Laguna, the way he used to be. He has only been away from home in Holy Week thrice in his life, one was due to W.O.R.K. and the other two were for family reasons.
"I love potatoes," Tutubi often tells his friends. "From french fries, baked potatoes, mashed potatoes, mojo potatoes, potato marble salads, except hash browns of MacDonalds for unknown reasons."
One of his favorites is Shakey's Mojo Potatoes with sour cream garlic dip at P69 (about $1.50) that he orders to take home. This time the order came with Manager's choice pizza, the thin crust version, at the newly-opened Shakey's Walter Mart North EDSA.
Wanna know why he chose manager's choice? Click here to know a bit of Tutubi's personal side. :P
