My take about Canon EOS M10 DSLR camera

Months ago I bought my new Canon EOS M10 camera. It's a mirrorless camera equipped with 18.0 megapixels resolution, APS-C sensor, and 14-45mm f 3.5 kit lens. For detailed specification please google it. :) This is about my experience with the camera, not a review.

I like the touch screen, its very responsive and clear. I like the compact size of this camera which would fit on a small bag. And most of all I like its crisp quality image and the video quality. This is a perfect camera for vloggers out there.  I usually use this for travel, street photography, and even fashion or modeling shoot.

Here are some of the sample photos I took using this EOS M10 camera with Canon mount adapter and Canon prime lens f 1.8mm STM and Canon Kit lens 14-55mm f3.5.

Driving Thru the best Lechon in Carcar Cebu

Lechon Drive Thru in Carcar Cebu

If you're going to South, or coming from South of Cebu, you should drive thru their famous Lechon. It is located on the back portion of their Market building. My tip before you buy, ask for free taste from all stall. Don't worry some vendors there would even offer it to you before you even ask. Carcar is also famous for their chicharon, sandals and bags, and ampaw so you may want to stop by there as well.

Halo-halo in Balamban Cebu

So it was Monday morning... I was about to go to ALA boxing gym to work out, when my friend sent me a text message saying they have plan to go to Balamban for a Halo-halo trip. I always do boxing work out every Sunday aftetrnoon or monday morning, so I thought this would be something new from my routine.


We met up at the Shell Gasoline station in Lahug. Around 9am, we decided to start our journey to Balamban halo-halo. I've traveled to Balamban several times already, so the curve and winding road is not new to me. I enjoyed the view of the mountains in the Trancentral highway, but nothing beats feeling the cold wind.

We did a stop over at the famous Felix Berto's burger ( famous for mc riders).


I had a coffee, while my buddies had a sweet corn.

I thought after the Felix berto stop over, we will be heading home but we went ahead to Balamban.


Balamban is not only famous for their Liempo. They have the best Halohalo too. It is located near the Bus terminal, right just behind their Public market.

If you happen to pass by Balamban, have a quick stop for this Halohalo. You won't regret it.


Toril Mactan Cebu Fishing Spot

It's 4am. A bad dream woke me up, so I got up and did not sleep again. I open my laptop, and I saw a picture from one of my fishing buddies in our facebook group page about the Toril fishing spot.

Since I don't want to go back to sleep, I packed my fishing gears up and diving gears in case the water would tempt me to dive, and head straight to Toril. 

Toril is located in Cordova in Lapulapu. The spot is an abandoned pier, with a large cruise ship docking for ever since I knew that fishing spot. They said it has a damaged engine and the company managing that ship was already bankcrupt. Too bad. However, the good thing is it serves as a home for many fish. I even saw a school of fish circling near earlier.

The road going to Toril is really challenging. I won't recommend going there with a 4-wheel vehicle.

I got there around 5 am. It's still dark, and it was cold! A perfect time to fish.

I checked the tide calendar, and it's going to be a low tide from 4am-11am today Aug.1. Not really a good timing.

We'll to cut the story short. Again, I didn't caught anything today.heheh But that doesn't mean that this place have lesser fish. Look at the local, he's like harvesting fish in my side. We'll his using a live shrimp as a bait, and fish gets really attracted to that.
