Nella Lomotan’s (@nellal ) decision to build her first nature-centred boutique stay at the most remote point of Nacpan Beach was completely deliberate.

@ecosanctuaries.elnido is announced by a four-kilometre strip of cream-hued sand nestled between pristine waters and lush green hills, which is, in Nella’s words, “a true refuge designed to connect with nature and local craftsmanship”. The resort is entirely powered by solar energy; its design maximises natural air flow to reduce carbon emissions; it follows a zero single-use plastics policy, and its kitchen uses vegetables that grown in the backyard’s orchard.

Who doesn’t love a rattan chair? Now imagine the same comfort for your furry pal. @e.murio decided that not only humans should enjoy well crafted furniture, so they came up with the Irooo Dog House.

They are a family-run workshop that works with tropical hardwoods to create all kind of wow moments in interior design.

In Cebu, located in the Visayas region of the Philippines, a traditional albularyo is called a Mananambal and their work of healing is called panambal.

Mananambals obtain their status through ancestry or through apprenticeship. Their practice combined elements from Christianity and sorcery which are a reflection of the legacies left from the conversion to Catholicism of the islands from Spanish colonization.

The Mananambal use two common methods in their practice: herbal medicine and “orasyon”, healing prayers deriving from a bible equivalency called the “librito”.

“Today, Siquijor is best known for the otherworldly skills of some of its inhabitants, which have earned it the nickname of ‘Home of Witches’.

The Mananambal - native word for ‘healer’ - are highly respected in the local culture for their knowledge of traditional medicine. Some of their concoctions and scent baths promise fortune, love or simply alleviate body pain. The Mananambal not only keep secret to the techniques of their rituals, but also maintain their whereabouts unknown, which makes searching for them an adventure in its own right.”
