January 2011 Wrap Up

I have been extremely lazy since last week and have not updated my blog for quite some time. I’ve been hanging out with my friends in Resort’s World Manila and I’ve been enjoying going there every night since last Saturday.

I’m not really a gambler but I’m quite enjoying playing the slot machines. I’m not a big spender as well since I dont have anything to spend, I only stick with my small budget and for sheer dumb luck, I’ve been winning for three consecutive nights as well. The slot machines seem to be helping me raise my travel funds.

And just to make things clear, I’m not advocating gambling. I’m just updating you with what I’ve been doing lately.

And since I’ve been hanging out in the casino for almost a week now, i realized that you don’t have to spend a lot to enjoy your time there.

Here are some tips on how to enjoy your time in the casino without spending a buck.

1. Free Coffee/Milk Tea/Hot Choco/Bottled Water: Most casinos offer free beverages such as bottled water, coffee, milk tea or hot choco. Too bad RW Manila only offer free bottled water. But Casino Filipino does offer free hot choco. Prepare your drink and go to some tables and watch how people play some games.

2. Discounted Buffet Breakfast and Free Games: When you sign up as a member at Resort’s world. they’ll give you a discount voucher for a buffet breakfast at Merkado’s and your membership card comes loaded as well with P100 so you can try out some games. membership is free.

3. Watch Live Performances: There was a lively performance last night and I didn’t bother myself buying an entrance ticket anymore because I can see the performers from where I was standing. it’s like a P700 savings (yup, that’s how much the ticket cost).

Anyway, enough with casino tips and here’s a summary of what I’ve shared with you last January.

I featured the following travellers in my ‘Meet the Nomads‘ section;

1. Linda Martin of Indie Travel Podcasts
2. Cengiz Yar Jr of Riding Out the Economy
3. Puneetinder Kaur Sadhu of Cutting Loose
4. Adrian and Mary of Travel to Sun
5. Abby Tegnelia of The Jungle Princess

I have also started writing a series about tips on long term travelling. Here are some if it:

1. Money Matters: Choosing Cards
2. Saving Money
3. Earning Money for Your Trip
4. Choosing your Destinations
5. All About Passports
6. All About Visa

I have also hosted some posts that I think would add value to my site. I hosted articles about Hotel Club UK, Holidays in Turkey, Villa Holidays, Spanish Islands and how to eat and stay cheap.

I also shared with you the exisiting promotion of Thunderbird Resort and I’m encouraging you to join so you will have a chance to win P100K. That’s a big amount of money for your next trip.

I also wrote some tips on how to survive overland journeys which I think will be very useful for those doing border crossings in Southeast Asia or anywhere in the world for that matter.

And of course, I also shared with you guys my plan to start backpacking again by March. This is in line with my pursuit of happines and hopefully you would continue supporting Flip.

I hope you’re learning some small stuff from my blog that would eventually help you live your dream of travelling.
