I got to write a feature for Inflight Traveller magazine issue 27 last February about Coron. The reason I’m only getting to write about it now is that I can’t seem to get a hold of the magazine from bookstores and I only got to finally have a copy when I chanced upon a digital one on Issuu’s website.

The article is the usual 10 Things To Do listicle and features major tourist destinations in Coron and Busuanga. Of course, I get to have my photos printed too.

Here’s my original version of the story:

They say that France is not a country, it’s a world, and I truly believe it now that I have been there, especially with Thrillophilia. Here’s my story and review of the France tour with Thrillophilia.

I was in France for my fellowship for four months spending more than fourteen hours a day just working on my paper. Before going I had so many plans for travelling across the country but would only go out on weekends during my stay in Bordeaux. Luckily, I had an extended visa and decided that if not the whole of Europe I should at least cover the highlights of France!

I saw my friend’s story about his Kerala trip with the company and decided to check out France trip reviews of Thrillophilia. To my surprise, the packages were way more affordable than the ones I was offered by the nearby tour operator. Not only that, but those packages were covering stay, transfers, sightseeing, food and additional activities. So I made two bookings, one a four night five days France culture tour and the other two days Paris and Versailles tour. And the best part, this cultural tour was all customized by the company to my liking as I wanted to see very specific cities and towns!

We were on the second half of our Nagoya Tour. Taking a three-hour long bus ride from Takayama, we arrived at Travelodge Nagoya Sakae early in the afternoon. Hauling two medium-sized suitcases, a camera bag, and a toddler with more energy than an Energizer bunny, I quickly plopped down on Travelodge’s comfy sofa while the wife, BG, and our friend, MM, sorted out our reservations.
