Remember the thrill and excitement you feel when planning for a spontaneous weekend getaway or an adventure-filled grand vacation - the sights to see, places to go, unique eats to enjoy, and whatnot? You count down the days till your bags are packed and passports ready as you march to the airport, hold your precious boarding pass that will render your dream holiday a reality.

In partnership with the Department of Tourism, Huawei Philippines and Manila Bulletin are set to launch their photo contest with the theme, “It’s More Fun With You.” They are accepting any photos about traveling in the Philippines, highlighting subjects such as the best tourist spots and attractions, travelers enjoying the local delicacies and events, and any of the many natural wonders across the archipelago.

Fujifilm Instax cameras were the much-requested gifts by debutants in 2012. I also wanted one for myself but I turned down the idea because I know I won't be able to afford it back then. Fast forward to 2015, I'm fortunate enough to own both the Instax Mini 8 and Mini 25. (Talk about the law of attraction!) Since then, my Instax cameras are my go-to camera whenever I want to capture a milestone – may it be a new travel destination or simple celebrations at home. Now that Fujifilm Instax Mini 11 is out, I can't wait to share with you my thoughts on the brand's latest point-and-shoot instant camera.
