Flight chronicles of the backpacker Tutubi, with travelogues, pictures/photos/videos, travel guides, independent and honest reviews, affordable, recommended resorts and hotels (including inns, guesthouses, pension houses, lodges, hostels, condotels, bed and breakfast and other cheap accommodations), commuting guides, routes (sometimes street maps and GPS coordinates/waypoints) and driving directions to answer "how to get there" questions, information and tips on tourism, budget travel and living in Philippines, Exotic Asia and beyond!
Backpacking, independent travel, and flashpacking are cheaper than the "cheapest package tours" and promotional offers around but you can also use travel information for family vacations, even romantic honeymoon destinations.
More than the usual tourist spots and "places to see," this blog advocates heritage conservation, environmental protection, and history awareness for Filipinos, foreigners, and ex-pats wishing to explore Paradise Philippines and Exotic Asia!
A nice, quiet church tucked inside Barangay West Triangle and near the home of Ninoy Aquino and former president Cory on Times St.
Tutubi posted the information as the church is the same church where Cory Aquino used to hear mass weekly due to its proximity to her home. It will probably be the same church where the "pasiyam" (nine days of traditional novena masses for the dead) of the late democracy icon may be observed. (You can expect to see the Aquino siblings, friends and relatives to gather here not only the popular Kris Aquino-Yap and her basketball player husband James Yap during the pa-siyam)

Hearts of Jesus and Mary Parish not air-conditioned but is not hot either due to sufficient ventilation. It's a great location for weddings, in fact it's the most booked church for weddings in the Diocese of Cubao. Ample parking for guests and parishioners available on the streets of the subdivision.
Tutubi sometimes hear Sunday masses here with schedules even at 12 noon.
