Picture this: You’ve just survived four days of ‘zen’ in Ubud (read: battling rogue macaques and finding inner peace whilst dodging motorbikes), and you’re thinking, “Time for an island escape!” Nusa Lembongan it is.

Alona Beach. The name itself practically whispers “tropical paradise.” Located on Panglao island, this little slice of heaven in the Philippines is all powdery white sands, ridiculously blue waters, and enough lush greenery to make you wonder if you’ve accidentally stumbled into a screensaver.

Several weeks before starting our trip to India, we went online and booked 2 domestic flights directly with Jet Airways.

We booked the following one-way flights, inclusive all fees: ♦ Mumbai-Trivandrum

How does Jet Airways inflight experience compare to other airlines? Air India is surprisingly the least popular of the domestic Indian airlines. How would the budget Jet Airways inflight experience stack up? https://www.sandspice.com/jet-airways-inflight-experience/

The first real experiences of our 20-day trip around the Philippines was our Cebu city guesthouse, since we had decided to skip Manila completely on our way in, and take an ongoing domestic Philippines Airlines flight to the islands.

Our 20-day trip around the Philippines started in Cebu City, but we didn’t plan to stay there long.

The Panama Canal is arguably one of most important structural achievements ever built.
