One time game show contestant, oft-time urban roamer. I have nothing much to say, I'm the quiet one...which is probably why I write and take photos too much.

An area considered as the core center of the Iglesia Ni Cristo, the Urban Roamer explores Barangay New Era and Central Avenue, which offer some interesting sights, including a massive religious museum designed by a National Artist.

Of all the zero-sugar orange sodas I've tried so far, this one tastes the closest to regular orange sodas. No hate to those zero-sugar orange sodas though.

Apparently, I've consumed less kWh for May-June 2026 compared to the same period last year. However, I'm paying more for this recent bill compared to last year. I wouldn’t understand if the difference is in the 10s of pesos, but P500?!!? WTF.

The Urban Roamer checks out Addition Hills in San Juan, which might no longer be the quite upscale neighborhood it once was. However, there are places there to check out where the old charm remains.

As someone who's familiar with Power Rangers/Super Sentai, I was stoked to see someone cosplay as the Black Dino Ranger/Abareblack as he's not really a popular choice. Then again, in PR he was friggin Tommy the Green Ranger so...

Any information about this house near the corner of Shaw Blvd. and Pilar St. in Mandaluyong? It has the looks of an old house (built 50+ years ago) that was typical of the old houses found there that's been repurposed to be this business facility today but I'm not sure.

Is it me or are most (if not all) sponsored ads on Facebook being needlessly translated to Tagalog via AI?

Last Saturday at the launch of a book written by David Celdran's son Powee on the Byzantine Empire. Aside from the fact that I didn't know until recently that Powee is David's son, the book is really really good and highly recommended.

Apparently, Makati has a St. Patrick's Day celebration going on right now at Ayala Triangle, which I think is a new thing going on since this was relegated to Irish/Brit pubs in the Metro in past years. Really cool!

Showcasing the stunning landscape of Eastridge, not to mention an opportunity to put my newly-bought drone to good use, lol.

What is showcased here though is just a fraction of the entire Eastridge complex, which is massive and has more views to offer.

A drink and a view to make me feel better a bit. Salamat sa pagyaya. You know who you are.

Unfortunately, it’s not available in physical stores in Manila, but you can find iit at Lazada and Shopee.

Thanks to Karla Singson for introducing me to this brand!

If there's one chocolate brand I'd highly recommend, especially for those on a low-carb diet, it's Hao Cacao. Their sugar-free dark chocolate especially proudly has zero carbs and sugar, a rarity even in low-carb chocolates.
