Dubai at Night: La Mer in 16 Photos

By Marron Santillan on Tuesday, October 6, 2020

Probably one of my favorite places in Dubai is La Mer. My friends and I would just take a bus from Business Bay to this beautiful beach for free! I can still remember when my triathlete friend Myka first brought me to this place. She said it gives a Santa Monica Pier vibe. And somehow, …

Stop calling it another name: It’s ‘Boracay’, and not ‘Bora’

By Marron Santillan on Monday, September 14, 2020

We use abbreviation mostly to shortened a word or simply to squeeze a lot of writing into a small space. And perhaps it is cute to call anything with cute nicknames; Like “Elyu” for the surf town La Union. And “Chris” for Christopher. And “Frappe” for Frappuccinos although I’m pretty sure your barista will correct …

The Slight Pain We Often Get When Someone Unfollows Us

By Marron Santillan on Sunday, August 23, 2020

I was talking to my friend Jerome over Facebook Messenger last week asking him the Instagram username of the owner of the hostel that we stayed in Lombok, Indonesia. I said I needed to ask some questions because their website seems down at that moment.

The Millennial Question: Are the 30s the new 20s?

By Marron Santillan on Sunday, July 19, 2020

There’s a stigma that the 30s are old and that life ends at 25. And I know it myself because somehow when I was a teenager, there was a stereotype that I should be settled by the time I hit 30 years old. And now that I’m 26, I suddenly felt like I’m pretty far …
