About Pinay Traveller

Hello there! If you are new here, you might want to subscribe to the RSS feed for updates on this topic.

Welcome to Pinay Traveller!

My name is Pauline. I am an all-around media person by day and a traveller for life.

I originally created this blog to document my trips and file important details such as travel information, (personal) hotel ratings and such. It’s also my virtual travel photo album.

But for the past couple of years, I’m glad that more and more people are able to use this blog as a resource for their travels. Being able to help other travellers is an unexpected bonus.

If you want to: a) know more about me; b) learn a particular place I have been to; c) hire me to write or take photos; or d) invite me to an event/festival/your home, please write me a note at polmangilog@yahoo.com.

You can also check out some of my professional work here:

A music video and a documentary I directed.

A couple of children’s shows I produced and headwrote for.

And an article I wrote.

So with that, I wish you happy travels! Ingat!

Boracay, Philippines

Hi,

I recently found your blog on TBEX and I thought you might be interested in UpTake’s new program called “Travel Gems” that features blog content from across the web on our site. It brings great blog content to a wider audience and helps bloggers like yourself increase traffic to their own blogs. I’d love to speak to you more about how this program works and see if you are interested in participating.

Thanks and I look forward to hearing from you!

Best,
Brittany

Hi Pauline,

Good day! I have been reading random blogs on the net most of the time, funny how it seems i do not have my own blog . Anyway, i got the chance to view your blogsite because i saw you in PINAKA (10 wonders of nature in pinas) last week and you were one of the guest panelistas that is why i immediately browse your blogsite and boom, you really have a nice blog – very fun to read, interesting trips and most importantly very informative blog. Thank you for sharing your great experiences with us. Hats off to you pinaytraveller!

Hi Pauline,

Because I found someone in the Philippines who also knows about Fado, I don’t feel like a stranger anymore. May I just say, aside from your blog, YOU ARE AWESOME!

Obrigado!

MARK
