Travel with Tanya

 It was quite sunny on October 10, 2020 and needless to mention, the pandemic was ruling the world at its peak. Finally, after a long halt, a moderate level of travelling has begun. Being a travel blogger, travelling becomes mandatory but this pandemic has left me with no options other than reading a plethora of travel blogs, especially related to Philippines (my present location).

With the confirmed tickets in hand, a full-fledged process started for the arrangement of the documents listed below - Emigration Clearance Certificate (...

A desire was held within me for a long time to be amidst the aquatic life under the dark blue sea. In fact, dreams frequently visited me since my adolescence to have a macro view of the wonderland under the sea.I could not make it possible in my home country but had the determination to transform my dream into reality in some foreign country. 'All our dreams can come true, if we have the courage to pursue them.' The above line is so true. Wondering how? Here comes the answer. It was on January 25, 2020, that a sudden plan was crafted (with lots of brain storming and suggestions) to visit the Ocean Park, the marine paradise in Metro Manila, Philippines. The place has plenty of positive reviews thereby pushing us further to pay a visit.  Location of Ocean Park- Quirino Grandstand, 666 Behind, Ermita, Manila, 1000  Metro Manila From Makati to Ocean Park- It took around 20-25 minutes to reach the destination and we reached at around 04.30 ...
