A sweet escape to Lima Park Hotel in Batangas

A visit to the Heart of Alsace – Hometown of the Dreyfus family

Presotea is now in the Philippines!
When I went to Taiwan for work a couple of months ago, part of my personal itinerary was to go to Presotea and try their tea beverages. But I just didn’t have the time. I thought the only chance I would have to try the various drinks of this popular establishment is when I would […]
