Reach for the Sky

These branches look like they are reaching for the sky.

With a sky like this bursting with a lovely hue (ok, I admit, I’m no fan of orange but hey this is the sky so I guess this is good with me), who wouldn’t want to reach out and “touch the sky”?

Reach out and touch the sky

Photo taken one afternoon while chatting with the house help in my MIL’s place.

Doubtful about the sky’s color? Check out this other photo taken with this: Sunset on a Rain Puddle

The Meranti at Two Serendra

Alveo Land’s latest innovative community at the heart of Bonifacio Global City (BGC): The Meranti at Two Serendra.

I have always wondered how inside the Serendra in Bonifacio Global City looked like inside. I was invited to a special occasion last year at One Serendra so I’m guessing both places have almost the same facilities. They do.

Learning about The Meranti at Two Serendra in an event where I was invited to made me realize what we have been missing: lush greenery, secure living facilities, first class amenities and peace of mind.

If only we can afford it, we’d be moving here at the blink of an eye.

The Meranti at Two Serendra:

Alveo Land’s Two Serendra offers an integrated living environment characterized by a fine balance of life, work, and play. A sprawling community that offers diverse opportunities in life right within one’s reach, Two Serendra is more than just an innovative living space within a dynamic district—it is a distinct development that offers social spaces resembling today’s modern and ever-evolving society.

The entire Two Serendra development dedicates 65 percent of its land as open greenery, a valuable space for you and your family to go out and enjoy your beauty and ease of the surroundings. It’s space that will insulate you from the buzzing energy of the city, so that you can have rest and quiet when you want it without having to go too far away.

Other facilities and amenities:

The Living Museum at The Meranti – best typifies the kind of innovation that Alveo Land brings to fore. Composed of a variety of lifestyle amenities and facilities that residents can fully enjoy, this unique concept will also cultivate the kind of life that Two Serendra is very much known for: living within social spaces for sharing passions.

The Tropical Garden will be one distinct amenity consisting The Living Museum. A tree-lined courtyard filled with lush landscaped greenery, it will be a glass-enclosed multifunctional hall that can host as many as 300 people. Being the only residential community with this amenity, The Tropical Garden will be a special venue to create lasting memories that residents can share with their loved ones.

Fitness Club –a fully-equipped fitness station with complete gym amenities and panoramic views of the Two Serendra gardens.

The Meranti’s Culinary Studio, a state-of-the-art kitchen and dining area within The Living Museum. Done to professional standards, the Culinary Studio can accommodate about 30 people who can share and indulge in delicious gastronomic delights.

Win a Samsung 2View Camera

Say goodbye to one-eyed and/or full forehead self-portraits, crying babies and failed jump shots with Samsung 2View Camera.

Samsung 2 View Camera features set it apart from other cameras:

  • Samsung 2 View Camera series, ST700, PL170, PL 120, offer the best and latest in point and shoot category: a dual LCD screen featured on the front (yes! you can see yourself as you take photos!) and back side of the camera

  • Built-in CHILD MODE feature. By downloading or creating your animation, you keep the children smiling as you take their photos. (Cool!)

  • JUMP SHOT feature which gives a visual countdown on the front screen to tell when to jump before taking three fast shots of you and your friends jumping for those happy photos. (No more counting before everyone jumps several times and still all photos are failed attempts at jump shots)

No Crossing the Street

You’ve been warned: “Walang Tatawid Nakamamatay” or in other words (MY interpretation), “Don’t (try to) Cross the Street or You Will Die”.

Stern Warning

There’s a foot bridge near the sign that people who want to cross this four lane super busy road can use if they want to go to the other side of the street. Whaddaya know, they don’t use it and instead play “tag, you’re it” with the passing fast vehicles. Tsk, tsk!

I don’t want to know if there have been, if any, or how many people have met tragic accidents in this area.

Subaru WRX STi Impreza

No license plate yet, spanking brand new Subaru WRX STi Impreza. I could be wrong on the make.

Watch a video here.

It’s new but I think it’s not the latest/brand new since there’s a newer model than this one when I took the photo.

This is the newer model being driven by Russ Swift for precision driving demo.

Doesn’t really matter if it’s the newest or not, I want one! :D
