My friends and I are planning to go to Singapore this summer. With Cebu Pacific's All Year Round Low Fares it makes it that much cheaper to go take a trip and escape Metro Manila.

To aid us in planning our trip, I am using YourSingapore.com's guide. The site lists all of Singapore' attractions and even allows you to save them and then later on click+drag them to a 1-4 day trip planner. It's super handy! You can even share the trip you planned with your family, friends or whomever is going with you.

As an added bonus, YourSingapore.com is even rewarding new members (just signup for their newsletter) with a chance to win a brand new macbook! That's the only reason I need to sign up :P

Asia Summer Travel Bargains for This Hot Hot Hot April!

I'd like to start with the disclaimer that I'm in no way associated to this travel agency or to anyone who works there except for the one who sent this email to our batch egroups because he's my college batchmate. :p
I'm posting this on my site because it's my quest to get as much bargains and deals out there to you, my blog readers :) Just stay posted and you'll be the first to know about the latest news and bargains from your favorite brands and even find interesting bits and facts here and there.
So here it is - travel packages for April from The Flightshop. What I love about them is they're all packages already (including airfare, accommodations and some even include day tours which I absolutely love). I haven't tried their agency but it looks pretty good. If and when any of you guys do try them out, please do let us know how it went. Their rates seem pretty reasonable, too.
