I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, Siquijor is one of those places in the Philippines that absolutely deserves a spot on your itinerary. If you’re planning a trip around the country, this little island should be high on your list. Siquijor feels different from a lot of the other islands I’ve visited….
Paliton Beach Siquijor, just outside of San Juan, is easily one of the best beaches in Siquijor and maybe even my favorite in the Philippines, period. White sand, swaying palm trees, and crystal-clear water, it really is the whole package. This ended up being my go-to beach while I was in Siquijor, mostly because it’s…
When I first added Siquijor to my Philippines itinerary, it was mostly because I kept seeing it pop up in reels on Instagram. Turquoise waterfalls, jungle swings, beaches that looked totally untouched. But once I got there, I realized it still didn’t feel nearly as touristy as places like El Nido, Cebu, or Siargao. And…
I’ve talked to a few people recently about Siquijor—whether it’s worth visiting, what the best things to do are, and how the island compares to other spots in the Philippines. And honestly, I’ve heard all kinds of opinions. After spending over a week on Siquijor Island myself, I’d say I checked off most of the…
When Oliver and I were planning our East Coast Australia itinerary, the one non-negotiable was visiting the Whitsundays, and obviously, that meant Whitehaven Beach. I’d seen the photos of crystal-clear water and perfectly swirled white sand and just knew I had to see it with my own eyeballs. Oliver had already been there a few…
Last year, I turned 30, and since Oliver and I were living in Australia, we figured, what better excuse to have my family fly over from Texas and celebrate? I mean, it’s only a 27-hour flight or something like that, ha! But they were more than happy to hop across the globe for an East…
Siquijor in the Philippines is, in my opinion, an absolute must if you’re planning a trip around the country. It’s such a cool island and it honestly feels a bit different from the rest of the Philippines. I mean, we’re talking about a place known for witches and folk healing, so you already know it’s…
Pitogo Cliff Siquijor is one of those nature spots that pretty much everyone visits when they’re in Siquijor, and yeah, I think it’s worth a stop. It’s just outside of San Juan, easy to get to, and the entrance fee is cheap. Nothing about it is incredible, but it’s a nice little place to hang…
Alright, I figured I’d write this because let’s be honest, being a digital nomad or working remotely is booming. Everyone wants to work from somewhere tropical, and the Philippines is definitely having a moment with remote workers. Naturally, I thought I’d share my honest thoughts for anyone eyeing Siquijor as a remote work spot. I’ve…
The Siquijor Beaches are easily some of my favorites in the Philippines, and that’s saying something. And no, I’m not just saying that to hype it up. If you’ve read my guide on Siargao’s beaches, you know I’m not afraid to say when I’m underwhelmed. But here in Siquijor, I genuinely loved the beaches. They…
