Beauty Mud Pack on the Sea

One of the beautiful places here in Palau is the Rock Islands... and to top it all part of it there's a place there called the "MILKY WAY" at first i thought the place would be like milky way as if you were in space (haha) but I think the place was name literally because the sand there is sort of like MILK! yes... like milk.. they say if you put the milky sand unto your skin it will make your skin fairer and smoother. So me and my friends tried it we put on some on our face, arms and legs.. but our boat driver who was a native Palauan told us to put it on our whole body and put an ample amount or so.. and let it dry. It was so fun.. it's like going to a spa and putting on a mud pack. The sand is so pure and so white like milk. But its not easy to get the mud pack.. you have to dive it below the sea water by the time you reach the top only a few have been left in your hands so you have to get again and again until you get enough of it to cover your whole body :P. Good thing is me and my friends did not have to dive.. the boat driver did it for us (haha). After several minutes when its hard and almost flaking off your skin we dip into the water again to wash it off and WHOALA! our skin is so soft! UNBELIEVABLE?? BELEIVE IT OR NOT? :P

Elilai Restaurant fine dining at its best....


One of my favorite restaurant here in Palau is Elilai Restaurant. It's own by Mitzukami Takuya one of my closest friend here in Palau. Its a semi-fine dining restaurant located in Ngerkebesang. They offer asian cuisine. What I like best in Elilai aside from the food of course is the view. It is so romantic especially at night you can gazed at the stars. :P

One thing good also with Elilai is the ambiance. Their chairs are handcrafted and very comfy.. :)

The servers are mostly filipino so its easier for me to order food and get more than what I paid for (he he just joking).

If you are visiting Palau.. dont forget to dine in at Elilai Restaurant. For more information visit www.elilaipalau.com .

Jungle River Cruise



If there's one thing good with my position as a Sales person of our company.. I get to have free and services from my customers. One of my best customer is Billy Takamine. He owns Jungle River Cruise. The offer a 2 hour boat cruise along the rivers in Ngchesar, Palau.

The tour starts by trekking a 10 minute road to the river. The path although it hurts your foot is worth while walking you get so see and feel as if you are really in a jungle ;P

As you reach the river, you will see the boat waiting for you with a boat driver that is so accommodating and likes to tell scary stories about the river but all of them were mere facts of his imagination (haha). During the trip you will see a gazillion of different kinds of trees, plants, birds and best of all the main thing in the trip is you get to see CROCODILES! yes live CROCODILES!.. (did I say CROCODILES? haha) and you also get to feed them.. yes! FEED THEM!!! Although the time I went there it was hide tide so some of the CROCODILES did not come out.. so if you're going to Jungle River Cruise be sure you are going there while its low tide :D.
