JESSA WENT TO MACAU
“Traveling – it leaves you speechless, then turns you into a storyteller.” – Ibn Battuta
So here I am today your story teller.
It's been 2 weeks since I posted my BIRTHDAY GIFT #1 - TRAVEL BLOG and highlighted my HONG KONG Trip(I'm sorry I got sick so I didn't manage to post this 2nd part as soon as possible but thanks God I'm okay now.). Like what I've said on my last blog, trip to Macau-Hong Kong was my birthday gift for myself which I considered as one of my #DreamAchieved hashtags.
It was an amazing feeling to achieve your dream and travel with your own hard work. Until now, I can't move one. I always tell about this trip my friends every time we talk about travelling. Thank you, Lord for the experience!
So right now it is time for me to show off my BIRTHDAY GIFT #2 - TRAVEL BLOG.
JESSA WENT TO MACAU 
After a tiring day in Hong Kong we need to go back to Macau since I need to watch the Macau Chinese New Year Fireworks. Again, we rode the TurboJet - 45 minutes Sea Travel. How unfortunate I am, I never experienced on the A-Seat of this vessel fleet and I couldn’t do some pictures while going to Macau. Anyway, it was indeed a good experience to travel with TurboJet. Since we reached Macau at around 6:30 PM, we rushed since the fireworks was scheduled at 10:00 PM and it is not Filipino time. The fireworks started at exactly 10:00 PM.
Macau Fireworks
Macau Tower
We weren’t able to go near the tower but I guess I had the nicest view ❤
What I love about Macau was you can actually go to this place to the other place by walking (not like in Hong Kong a lot of transportation). After watching the fireworks, we walked down the street and I found out why they did call Macau as the VEGAS of CHINA.
Macau is a small region on the south coast of China it reflects a mix of cultural influences. Its giant casinos and malls indeed mecca of gambling and glitz.
Grand Lisboa
Comprised of an ultramodern tower rising from a striking geodesic dome. Guys, it was my first time to see a Hotel and Casino like this in my whole life. I experienced to go in Singapore but their hotels are like the typical building hotels in Manila so I thought that GOLDEN CITY OF DREAMS in Pasay City was the best but I was wrong. This Grand Lisboa in Macau made my jaw drop! This is the first grand hotel that I saw but like what my sister told me, there's a lot more and yes there's a lot more! But I want to hunt the architect of this unique hotel and casino and if it's an old man already I'll ask if he has a son or grandson and marry one of them. Hahahaha. Seriously, I want to marry an architect. 🤗🤗🤗
I'll show you more of those hotels I saw while walking back home. By the way, I didn't book a hotel room I stayed on my sister's flat. (I saved money, I am really an Ilocana 😂)
There's a lot more of these hotels but I am really that type of person that if I saw something beautiful and I was amazed by it or them I'd rather stare than taking pictures. 😊 So after checking on those stunning casinos and hotels, we walked back home and passed by the Ruins Of St. Paul's Street.
The next morning, we woke up early since we need to go Taipa and Cotai Strip and we rode a bus for 30 minutes standing. I'm wearing my new boots that time and my feet was really aching. The excitement I felt before I rode the bus washed away because of that trip. But yeah, this is my birthday gift, so I didn't let that bus ride ruined it. I'm good at moving on guys 😊
Welcome to Taipa Macau
When I saw Taipa, I realize that I’m not really dreaming and I am really in Macau. Hahahaa. It was a CHINESE STYLE VILLAGE. The foods are not really familiar to my taste buds. Hahaha. People are shouting but they said it was just a normal voice and I also realize that my eyes are really big. 😲 This place is my favorite, FREE TASTE before buying the food but…………. I didn't buy! 😍
The Venetian Macao
This hotel is like "The Venice Grand Canal Mall of the Philippines" but this one was way way way way way better than what we have in the Philippines. (I'm sorry but I need to be honest). By the way, I’m here to look for Go Jun Pyo of Boys Over Flowers. HAHAHAH. While walking through the canal my eyes was pleased with such a beautiful atmosphere - the ceiling. The ceiling was a painting and it feels like walking outdoor, but it is indoor. I felt like the clouds of this painting is coming after me! Hahahaha. Amazing!! I'm sorry I've been using the amazing word on this blog but indeed I WAS REALLY AMAZED by this Hotel and their GONDOLA DRIVER - Handsome!
This video was taken when I entered the hotel and realize that I need to took some videos and pictures. Hehe
After the Venetian tour, we also check out one of the famous hotel - THE PARISIAN Hotel. The Parisian has a half-scale 525-foot Eiffel Tower as one of its landmarks and they said that this hotel is like one of the PARIS HOTELS in Paris France. So if you were able to experience or visit this hotel, you would feel that you went to PARIS.
THE PARISIAN
Right - hall way to Comfort Room Left - Girls Comfort Room
Wow! Their comfort room is better than our living room.
Once you enter the hotel this will welcome you.
The Parisian has a half-scale 525-foot Eiffel Tower and it was my favorite. I felt like I'm in PARIS - Bonjour,je t'aime😍😍
I always tell you this guys. I am a frustrated model so I need to take the chance to take some pictures here. 😂
OKAY! So enough with my pictures. HAHAHAHAHAHA. I have a lot more but I need to stop here. HAHAHAHAHA
The Wynn Palace
WYNN PALACE is a Luxury 5 Stars Hotel In Cotai Strip, Macau and famous with their unique decorations using fresh flowers. Steve Wynn described it as "the most aggressive, ambitious and lovely project" he has ever undertaken, with a design "reminiscent" of the Bellagio in its use of fountains, flowers and lighting as a key attraction. What I like about this hotel is, the Wynn Palace SkyCab - a free cable car ride. Instead of you going in, using escalator or lift I bet you try their skycab. Hehehehe
Ruin of St. Pauls
It wasn't a bad idea in having my international travel because I was able to visit my sister Jhona and finally after 4 years I saw my eldest sister. Seeing her made the trip extra amazing. I really missed her so much. We had a lot of happy moments on this trip. We talked about a lot of things that what we missed out for 4 years. We hugged each other so tight and cried when it’s time for me to go home. SepAnx moment 😔 Thank you sister! My trip couldn't have been better without you. I'll see you again soon!
I once hated travelling it is because of doubtful thoughts on my mind. "Jessa,it is too much!", "Jessa it is expensive, you need to earn for future!", "Jessa just treat yourself a food and no to travel", "Jessa, it is your dream to travel - NO NO NO! I'll set aside that dream, I'll do it next time". A LOT OF THAT!!! but you know what guys, when you really dare to dream about it, it would really happen no matter what. Then I finally decided to do it, it was an amazing BIRTHDAY GIFT. This travel made me so unbelievably happy, gave me butterflies like no guy ever had, and turns me into a better version of myself with each step I made on this trip. Guys, every one of us dreamed and still dreaming to travel, it is not a bad idea to treat yourself better than a material thing. In treating myself for 4 days MACAU-HONG KONG Trip made me happier than the happiest person in the world. It is true that taking a mini vacation have more happy memories than those who spend a longer one. With all that thought out loud, I’m looking forward to the next journeys that come to my life. Cheers and more years of travel to come! 🙂 Thank You Lord for all the blessings in life

What an amazing trip u had 😍😍😍
Thank you so much! :)
Thank you! wow thats great to hear! I assure you you'll enjoy it.
Wow. It's like you did some hotel hopping. And it's a great timing that I stumbled upon this post because my family and I will be going to HK and Macau soon and I'm trying to look for places to go though I'm not sure what we can squeeze with the little time that we'll have.
Also, you and I have the same sentiments when it came to traveling, that it's expensive and such, but with the right amount of budgeting, it really is doable especially when you wanna do it. And because its effects are really nice for the soul.
It's nice to look at your photos and it's noticeable that you really had fun :)
Thank you so much for dropping by and for your message! :)
If I can only adjust my flight to go back in the Philippines I've done it. 4 days are really not enough for HK-Macau. Hahaha. I assure you you'll enjoy it. :)
again thank you! :)
