STI College, Santa Rosa recently celebrated its Hotel and Restaurant Management (HRM) Week last September 28 to October 01, 2011.

We didn’t had the chance to take pictures of Paete because we were too busy strolling around the small town checking for different kinds of handicrafts made from wood and papers.

Taytay Falls, located at Barangay Gagalot, Majayjay, Laguna. It has one of the clearest flowing water, you could see it from the pictures. The water flows from Mt. Banahaw, through the mountain’s lush and untouched forest which keeps the water clear even during heavy rains....
