Czechia is one of my favorite countries to visit. I've been to this country a handful of times already. Prague is a city I don't mind returning to over and over again. However, I was looking for other places to visit whenever I return to Czechia. One such place I added to my list is Hluboka Castle.

Check out my post on how to get to Hluboka Castle.

After exploring Paris, I was looking for another place to visit while in France. Colmar caught my eye when I was looking for small towns to check out.

I had the opportunity to visit Ozamiz City in Misamis Occidental in one of the media trips I was invited to. It was a nice experience to explore a new place in Mindanao again. 

Our group spent a few days in the region visiting different places.

I was looking to add another province to my list of provinces visited in the Philippines. I figured it was time to visit Bacolod City in Negros Occidental. I kept postponing a trip to this city, but after finally having time, I decided to go.

Bacolod is a chill city which you can visit as a short weekend getaway from Metro Manila.

I added Recife to my itinerary when I traveled around Brazil. I wanted to see other cities in the country other than the famous ones such as Rio de Janeiro and Sao Paulo. I had a good time during my short stay in Pernambuco.  

You can spend a few days exploring Recife.

Zamboanga City and other places near it are noteworthy additions to your itinerary whenever you plan a trip to Mindanao. I was fortunate enough to visit it when I returned to the region after a long time.

There's plenty to see, do and experience while exploring Zamboanga City.
