Snorkelling the Sardine Run in Moalboal, Cebu

Snorkelling the Sardine Run in Moalboal, Cebu 🐢✨

Today was an absolute dream—swimming through a shimmering wall of thousands of sardines and coming face-to-face with majestic sea turtles in the crystal-clear waters of Moalboal. Watching the sardines move in perfect synchrony was mesmerising, like a living, breathing ocean ballet. And those turtles? Effortlessly gliding through the sea, completely unbothered by my presence.

This is hands down one of the most unforgettable underwater experiences in the Philippines! If you ever get the chance, dive in—you won’t regret it! 🌊🐟💙

📍 Moalboal, Cebu, Philippines
🎥 Snorkelled straight off the shore—no boat needed!

Walking through the Vatican Museum was like steppi

Walking through the Vatican Museum was like stepping into a masterpiece. Every corner, every ceiling, every sculpture tells a story—centuries of history, art, and devotion woven together in breathtaking detail. Seeing the Sistine Chapel in person was beyond words… just standing beneath Michelangelo’s legendary frescoes, trying to take it all in, was an overwhelming (in the best way) experience. You could spend a week here and still not see everything! If you ever get the chance, don’t rush—let yourself get lost in the beauty.

Have you been to the Vatican Museum? What was your favourite part?

Stepping Back in Time at the Colosseum!

Stepping Back in Time at the Colosseum! ⏳🏛️

Exploring one of the most iconic landmarks in the world—the Colosseum in Rome! Walking through this ancient amphitheatre, it’s impossible not to feel the weight of history. From gladiator battles to grand spectacles, this place has seen it all. The sheer scale and intricate architecture are mind-blowing, a true testament to Roman engineering!

If these walls could talk, imagine the stories they’d tell… 🏟️✨

Golden hour in Trastevere, where Rome’s charm comes alive. As the sun sets over the terracotta rooftops, the city lights start to twinkle, and the streets fill with the sound of laughter and clinking glasses. Staying in this historic neighbourhood feels like stepping back in time, with its cobbled streets, vibrant trattorias, and hidden piazzas. There’s no better way to experience the magic of Rome. ✨🇮🇹

My final sip of a street-side bière in Paris, a city that has not just stolen my heart but rewritten its rhythm. Every boulevard, every winding laneway, every golden-lit window feels like a brushstroke in a masterpiece centuries in the making. Wandering here is stepping through a living dream—where history whispers through cobblestones, and art spills effortlessly into life.

As we prepare to leave, I do so not as the same person who arrived. Paris has stretched my mind, filled my soul, and etched its essence into my very being. The taste of buttery croissants lingers, the echo of jazz down Montmartre’s streets still hums, and the warmth of fleeting conversations with strangers stays pressed against my skin like a lover’s farewell.

One weekend is a mere whisper when you long for a symphony. But this is not goodbye—only à bientôt.

Merci, Paris. You have been incroyable. Until we meet again.
