I'm off to a business trip!

Hello friends! It's Tuesday early morning (1:30AM), but here I am trying to keep awake. I just hope I don't get migraine from this...

I think I won't be able to wake up on time because I am due to go to the airport later for a trip to Davao. The flight is at 4:30, so I have to be at the airport at around 3:00... so I need to take a cab from home by 2:30 or so.

It's a business trip. It's my first time to be there so I'm all excited. I just hope I get to see more than just the 4 walls of the conference halls. So I'm off... til Sunday. I'll see if I can sneak in and do a bit of blogging from the land of durian and the tarsier!

Til then! I'll buy some pasalubong!

  3. Welcome to Davao!
    Sorry to disappoit you, wala tayong tarsier here. You might like to see the Philippine Eagles or our crocks.
    We have four walls - North is airport area, East is Samal, West is Eagle Center and flower/fruit farms, and south Mt. Apo. In the center of course is the downtown - City Hall and all. Try The Venue, MTS, F. Torres Food Street or Chinatown.
    Email me if you need a guide. I was ex-city tourism officer for nothing.

  9. Hello all. I'm taking a breather from the conference (in short, tumakas saglit sa booth namin hehehe)

    AAArrrgggh. I think I was thinking about the Philippine eagle but got to write tarsier instead. So when we got here and I was wondering out loud whether we would be able to see the tarsier at all, all my companions stared at me and said, "wrong island. the tarsiers are in bohol." Confused me.

    Ann: ang linis nga dito.

    Balikbayan Box: Nakita ko na Aldevinco! Pasalubong heaven! About the durian, I had a bit of experience with drinking durian coffee. Will share that in a later post.

    Peter, thank you for the quick bit of info! But I don't think I can go to all those places, especially Mt. Apo, whose splendour can only be appreciated by really climbing it, even for a short while.

    Jairam, maganda nga dito. Mura pa food!

    Meowok, I knowwwwww. Now. ;-)

    Jeff, I knowwww now too. hehehe

    Ate fionski, mas cute naman ako sa kambal na yun ah. hehehe

    Hi Follen. Will do!

  14. Cruise, nabanggit nga nila yung marang. Parang malaking starapple ang description nila. Pero di pa ako nakakakita nyan so far.

    Owen, the durian is reserved for another post. As for the panga ... grabe! Ang mura ng seafood dito!

    Talaga cathy, specially made for you? Nice ah

    Em! Enjoy talaga dito sa Davao!!!

    OK...so di rin lang ako nakapag-post. Just making a quick trip to the internet cafe. We're off to Manila tomorrow!
