Discovered a hippy traveler-vibes cafe today in Cebu! Journey’s Cafe is found inside West Gerordo Hotel. If you look up the ceiling, you’ll find stamps from different places around the world.

Food is also very affordable and tasty. I can imagine staying here if I just want to relax, read a book or even study.

Going around Singapore was very easy thanks to the maps available in each bus stops, train stations and free mobile apps! The locals there were also very helpful.
