A walk in Abbotsford Convent
After having a hearty lunch for Mother’s Day, fam and I went to the Abbotsford Convent to spend the rest of the day walking and talking about what has gone by during the past weeks that we didn’t see each other. With lush gardens, the Abbotsford Convent is a slice of the country, an art…
A Moody Walk

I love taking flower photography, travel photos, as well as photos of random objects and sceneries that I see along the way. This time however, I went on a trip back to my homeland the Philippines…
