more often than not, i find myself wishing i had a secret hideaway that i could retreat to everytime my life dishes out more than i can handle. a place that's quiet, cool, sunny, lots of trees, a beach - yeah, i am describing bora aren't i? but if i can't drop everything and go to bora, where can i go? the metropolis i live in, known as manila, has a few places that i go to just to chill. one of them is starbucks greenbelt...
(l-r: the view from my table just outside the entrance to starbucks greenbelt; what did i have? my fave combi - croissant and coffee ...)
an addition to my list: last week, i had lunch at the park with a colleague of mine. at first i thought it would be "weird" to have lunch in the park aside from the fact that it conjures up childhood memories when mom, dad and i would go to the park, have a bbq or go apple-picking. anyway, i was pleasantly surprised. we ate lunch in the legaspi park. i only took two pictures; i failed to get a shot of the mini-bridge with a koi pond flowing underneath.
(l-r: the view from my end of the park bench...yes the second picture is slightly askew, i took it that way...)
sometimes, exposure to "greens" really does you some good....after that wonderful late breakfast (first set of photos), i became a freelancer again and i'm happy about it :)
