Tired of the new rules, Carmina closed her Google Maps account — what pushed her over the edge?

It’s been months since Carmina last posted on her Google Maps. I started doing it just for fun, exploring new places to dine and travel, and sharing those spots with others. Back in 2017, I wasn’t even blogging yet. Over the years, I received numerous email updates about changes, but in September, the removal of followers on Google Maps felt particularly strange.

I went to visit Caliraya Resort where I had booked in an application called  Booking.com where I had schedule all my travel plans from hotel accommodation not sending any money just pay upfront when you visit the area.

Street Taco

Carmina grew up with Mexican friends from high school, college, and beyond. Over the years, while keeping in touch, her friends would often share what they ate after work. One friend mentioned eating at a street taco stand in a specific location. In California, these are called taco trucks , serving homemade Mexican dishes prepared fresh based on your order. In the Philippines, taco trucks aren't available, but there are restaurants where Mexican food can be enjoyed by dining in.
