Enjoying the personal view of the rolling terrain of Chocolate Hills was one of the tourist highlights in Bohol. Prior to having lunch at Loboc River Cruise, we exhausted ourselves by climbing the 214 steps leading us to the observation deck where one can view the hills up close and even count them!

One of us even wanted to back out because of the height, but in the end she continued and didn’t mind or she’d be left alone below! Fairly well, the 214 steps was worth it! Upon reaching the observation deck, a beautiful sight greeted us and gave us excitement to play with the hills.  The Chocolate Hills was indeed a great wonder of nature. But how these hills were formed?

A local tour guide explained that they were formed when tectonic process happened millions of years ago causing the seabed to uplift. From there, I realized that these hills were not piles of mud which formed underground but are limestone.

At the observation deck, there was a photographer who took photos of every tourists so you can buy it as souvenir from their DIY photo booth.

We then spotted these European tourists with skins almost tan and bodies that were fit. The guy in white tank was hot and I just couldn’t take my eyes away from him. His tattoo made him hotter and Read more…

An authentic Ray-Ban has its logo embedded in casing’s button

A new and truly authentic Ray-Ban from sunglazz.com arrived at our doorstep last Saturday afternoon. Sunglazz.com is a newly established online store which specialized in selling authentic Ray-Ban sunglasses in the Philippines. That’s why when the owner offered me to try their Aviator collection, I didn’t hesitate and choose the Original 58-mm Black Ray-Ban Aviator.

But how to really tell if a Ray-Ban is authentic or fake? At the end of this blog post, you’ll also see a video of me unboxing the Ray-Ban determining if it’s authentic or an imitation. I did a lot of researching on Youtube and other website on how to determine if its fake or real and here’s what I learned.

1) A real Ray-Ban doesn’t have any “Made it Italy” markings or engraving in its casing. There should be a bright gold stamp in the right side of the casing. Check for any dullness or fading of the stamp, if there is, it’s fake. Read more…

Last week, I received an SMS from my compadre, a tour guide who’s based in Guimaras. He told me that he just gave a big discount to someone who claimed to be a “popular traveler blogger” and a “friend” of mine who visited and toured Guimaras last week.

Compadre: Comadre! How are you? Do you know J.H.P?  She went here yesterday and gave her a discount because she told me you are friends. She also told me that she’s a popular travel blogger.

ADAPHOBIC.COM is committed to a budget friendly traveling but never did an outrageous form of haggling as this blog commits to helping locals earn a decent living.

It’s so sad to hear that there are now people who pose to be my “friend” or a relative of mine just to have a travel or tour discount in the said tourist spot and even claiming to be a popular blogger. This blog is NEVER connected to any blogger or to anyone who voluntarily ask for travel discounts or deals to a company or any travel services.

If you believe that someone is trying to pose to be connected to me, please verify his/her identity this by sending me an email at adaphobic@gmail.com or Tweeting me at @adaphobic.

Update: I just found out that WHENINMANILA.com and AZRAELSMERRYLAND.blogspot.com was victimized by the same type of modus. However, in their case, fakers claimed that they were a representative or connected to them.
