About Me

Hey there! I'm Chad.

And you are here! Welcome to my site.

First, let me introduce myself  formally. I am Richard J. Roque, a Pinoy from the province of Bulacan. I am one of those urban slaves trying to escape from the monotony of everyday office life by travelling. 

AN ENGINEER:

A graduate of the hallowed halls of my beloved Bulacan State University, I am a registered Electronics Engineer and working as a Software Engineer. Yeah! An engineer but working in Information Technology world. 

A HEDONIST:

Pleasure-seeker, I consider myself looking for something to satisfy me. But of course taking into consideration that it should be budget friendly. I try cuisines of the place and experience the must-try activities having the mindset that I might not go back to the place again.

A TRAVELER:

Obviously, I love going places. I am a self-proclaimed "explorer". By that, I like going to places to I never been to and experience things I never tried before. My favorite destinations are beaches!  I love soaking myself under the heat of the sun. Maybe, this is also a reason why I am a travel agent! :)

ABOUT THE BLOG

WHAT'S IN IT FOR YOU?

Thrift tips, must-try's, where-to-go's, culture trivia and I guess funny and not so funny stories of my adventures and misadventures of a man craving to explore. This will tell you stories of how to enjoy a budget-friendly trip.

OUT THE POST CARD PHOTOGRAPHY

Feeling like a professional photographer, I make sure that my photos are different from the rest and so I adapted from whoever if someone has invented this concept before, the out of the postcard photography. LOL

In this blog, I mainly focus capturing photos that are not usually seen in postcards. I aim that these pictures are not the ordinary angles in which tourist spots are usually taken and known for.

THE TRAVEL HAT

I guess you might have noticed, I always wear fedora hat in my pictures.

So what's with the travel hat I usually wear?

It's my trademark! And I believe it looks good on my pictures. It makes may hair settle down. LOL

Other reasons? I think I am yet to discover. 

Traveling always gives me something to look forward to. It gives me that feeling of being free and  whole. I'm glad I have discovered this passion that I really like and hoping by sharing this experience through writing blogs, someone out there might also discover his or her own.
