Where to Eat in Ozamiz?


You will definitely know a place better by the food that they serve and Ozamiz is all about food. 

The street where we are staying is actually a foodie district because the restaurants are just next to each other! 

The Trip Going To Ozamiz


As a first time traveler by air (after a long time) I didn't know what to expect on our trip to Ozamiz. 

And if it is your first time travelling to Ozamiz City this post is for you!

Amazing Adventure in Ozamiz City


Hey guys! I know I haven't been blogging for a while because I moved! well..its not permanent but I moved to Ozamiz City!

If you guys don't follow me on my instagram account @alicemate (which I highly suggest you do) I have been staying in the beautiful city of Ozamiz City!

Yes. The one in Mindanao. And I am loving it! 

The Reason for the move

Along with the office of the City Tourism and the city government has launched its Visit Ozamiz program last October.  The program is geared to show as to why the city is tagged as the cultural, historical and pilgrimage site of Misamis Occidental.

I am really honored to be part of this event. The mere fact that I get to experience the city before the main tour for our friends in the media and also a few social media influencers made my experience more vivid than what I first knew of Ozamiz. 

Hesitations...

Quite honestly, The only thing that hesitated me in moving is the prejudice of the said place. Most people think that because it is in Mindanao, its not a safe place. Even my mom is against this move because I am half way across the country and she won't be able to see me on a daily basis unlike when I was staying in Manila.

I am the youngest, so this move is definitely harder for my mom than myself - Imagine the messages she sends me on a daily basis. 

The. Struggle. Is. Real. 

But she knows me more than anyone else in the world, that I am as stubborn as my papa, and I won't back down to a challenge - especially this one.

So here I am!

So the next few posts will be about my adventure in Ozamiz City. I might do several posts so make sure to check back here or check my Instagram page!

And if you are from Ozamiz City reading my blog right now and you might see me around the city, don't hesitate to say hi. Promise I don't bite haha! 

Much Love!
