Importance of Home Security Monitoring

Burglars and vandals break in and damage millions of homes each year. When you want to protect one of your most valuable assets, your family home, you would do well to invest in protection like home security monitoring that can keep watch over your house any time and any day of the week. As much as you would like to be at home to protect your house and your family, you must be able to carry out your normal, everyday life. Because you cannot be at home all the time to protect what your residence, this monitoring can give you the peace of mind in knowing that your house will be protected and monitored against theft and vandalism.

Latest Floor Cleaning Concepts that can Help You

When people get busy, one of the first things that tends to fall by the wayside is the amount of time spent on floor maintenance. Yet keeping floors clean on a regular basis is the number one way to extend the life-span of your rugs, carpets, or floor. It is also one of the best ways to remove excess dust in your home, which can contribute to asthma.

Here are some of the latest floor cleaning concepts that can aid you:

Floor mopping robots: It seems odd that it has taken this long for people with hard floors to get some relief from daily or weekly mopping, but floor mopping robots are now in their 5th generation and are showing all the signs of being as efficient as a human can be in many circumstances. On the positive side, the technology has been enhanced so much, there is no real spot in your room that a robot will miss. They are also very adept at cleaning your floor very well. The only negatives are that homeowners are still often locked into buying proprietary cleaning fluid and in some cases, the cleaning cycle doesn't get the robot through a large room without needing to be recharged.

Planning a Renovation Budget

Are you ready to make a significant change to your home? The idea of a renovation project can be a daunting task, but it can give you the home of your dreams. Once you decide that a renovation project is worth exploring, you will want to start with a budget before anything else so you know what you can get for your budget.

Creating a budget for a renovation project starts with knowing what you can afford. Have you been saving? Do you plan to get a loan for the project? Once the overall budget is set, you will want to do some research on the general cost of your specific type of renovation. This will help you determine if your project is feasible and what type of materials can be used to complete it.

Remember, the cost of materials is just half of the budget. You will also have to consider the cost of labor. If you are not sure what that costs, then you can start getting quotes from contractors to help you determine the cost.

If you are planning a renovation project in the near future, you can see more information about contractors, budgets and builders in your area. That way, you can walk into your next project with a clear plan to get it done on time and on budget.

Booked My Flight for A Holiday to Asia

I finally booked my flight for a holiday to Asia this year. It's been so long a time since I did not had a travel in my home country, Philippines. I chose to explore many countries in Europe and finally this spring time, I will be flying home.

During my flight from Phoenix to San Francisco in 2012.

I started to find cheap flights since October 2013. I was browsing online which travel portals or agencies are offering the cheapest ones. Since Asia is quite a long way especially to the Philippines, I decided to choose the flight that I don't need to have a long lay-over.

I was also asking for affordable flight to the travel companies where I booked my flights during my previous travels to the Philippines. I was quite disappointed with Vollmer Reisen, a travel agency in Germany because it was very clear in my inquiry about the flights that I want. They also don't answered on my queries immediately. Due to that, I decided to inquire about Kirschner Reisen, a travel agency in Cologne. They immediately replied to my message in their facebook page. Since the offer for flight was quite reasonable, I ended up booking it. It is also a peak season in April-May and I am afraid that there will be no more seats available, the reasons why I booked it immediately.

More on that, I will be visiting Singapore also and other places and islands in the Philippines. I am still planning and organizing for my travel itinerary as of now. I hope I can finalize everything before the end of March.

Thanks to my siblings from the US who sponsored for my plane ticket this year. I am indeed blessed to have such loving sisters. God bless you my dear sisters. God bless us all!

10 things you should minimize doing on social networks after Typhoon Yolanda aka Haiyan

First of all, I would like to extend  my prayers and sympathy to the Philippines especially to the victims of  the monster typhoon  haiyan or yolanda.   Keep strong and God bless Philippines!

 I read this in my friend's facebook wall. I decided to share   it here and thankful for the person who wrote and shared this.  Well, it is up to you top react. Besides its your choice at all!

More on that, let's continue to pray for the families who are affected by the recent typhoon yolanda or haiyan.  God bless Philippines!

*1. Don’t say people in the Visayas region deserve it. It is not your place to judge whether or not a community deserves a projected death toll of 10,000, including innocent children. That is, unless you think you can read God’s mind.

*2. Don’t keep posting food photos. People in areas hit by Typhoon Haiyan are actually desperate for water and food. It’s not that posting yummy photos of food is illegal; it just might get your teeth kicked in by your Facebook friends, especially those whose relatives are still missing.

Tips on How to be A Successful Travel Blogger

For those who are aspiring to become a successful travel blogger, check this out;

First you have got to remember – before becoming a travel blogger or starting a travel blog, you should first become a regular and passionate traveler. In other case there is no point writing about stuff you didnt experienced yourself. Then go buy yourself a good camera and keep looking for unusual photo opportunities. Dont forget to write about everything you see and experiences in your journal. Yes,  you heard correct, cause sometimes we travel to places with no wifi (there are places with  no internet in this world). Our memory is not a computer, so its better to write it down and then upload to the blog.

A Call and A Challenge To Conserve Water

Imagine, if you're so thirsty but when you tried to get water from the faucet, you just squeezed a drop. Can you cook without water? Can you keep a good personal hygiene without water? In short, can you live without water? If you answered NO, then you must act now.

Recent studies showed that the Philippines is facing a water crisis over the next 10 years unless new sources are developed to meet growing demand.

"There is a [Japan International Cooperation Agency] study that says that in 2025 if we will not conserve water, there may be some problems. But of course we can always start conserving now and look for other sources," said Edgar C. Lopez, Philippine Waterworks Association president.

"Groundwater in the Philippines may be depleted by the year 2050," a University of the Philippines professor said in a report based on a study that started in 2006.

A Golf Holiday

Spain is a beautiful country. With its diverse culture, lively nightlife, beautiful beaches, historic sites and cities, world famous folklore and festivals, Spain has been a dream country to visit for many tourists worldwide.

I am so lucky to visit this country and I can say, I will keep on coming back there when time and financial aspects are possible. I have been there twice and maybe in my next visit I would love to experience some Golf Holidays in Spain.  I was  thinking the past months that spending a golf holiday can be a   unique and enjoyable experience. For a first timer like me, I believed it will be full of fun and challenges.
