MomTraNeur - Mom. Traveler. Entrepreneur. 💞a homeschooling mom ✈️ who loves to travel 👩🏻‍💻and works from anywhere I’m a hyper-tasking mom, sassy traveler, and adventurous, location-independent entrepreneur. All I want ever since is to share my stories to hopefully impact and inspire others to thrive in their lives and not just endure. I’m a lady from the East who makes simple dreams come true — no to 9-5 jobs, wants to always be with my family, likes to explore different places, buy or harvest and roast our very own farm-produced coffee I can brew. I like beach bumming, exploring new places, planting herbs and vegetables, doing homemade soaps and beaded accessories especially when I have the extra time; I used to help out at the farm, now I help manage the resort we own, indulge in tarot reading, meditation, and positive spells, so I can feel sublime. I believe that life is beautiful if we put God at the center and only choose to always see the good. And that there’s always more than enough blessings for everybody including the occasional luxury travels and extravagant food. Moreover, I am a middle-aged Filipina who decided to become a mom in my late 30’s after the failure of my first marriage. I am raising my smart & handsome young son with my guy best friend who became my husband after almost a decade of life partnership. Together we’re doing everything we can to provide a better life for our family, and hopefully change the world little by little as we do our best to live meaningfully. This is my personal journal as a mother, a traveler and an entrepreneur. I believe in second chances at love and at life. I stand for living your true self no matter how hard. Feel free to read my posts (both old and new) hoping I can spark some inspiration in living the best and authentic life for you.

Teaching My 7-Year-Old Financial Literacy: Exploring ‘The First Ten Rules of Wealth’ by Richard Templar

Leave a comment

As a parent, I’ve always believed that education extends far beyond the walls of a traditional classroom. This belief has been a driving force behind our decision to homeschool our 7-year-old son, giving him the freedom to learn in ways that suit his interests and needs. One area that Mahal and I are particularly passionate about introducing to his curriculum is financial literacy. In today’s ever-changing world, the importance of understanding money, saving, and investing cannot be overstated. I grew up with a poverty mindset… that feeling that we’re always lacking… that belief that I’m not worthy of the good kind of life… and it took years of reading self-help books, and wealth-related books, and listening to Oprah and Tony Robbins before I was able to fairly say I that I’ve somehow overcome my poverty mindset and started my journey towards abundance. I want Tuz to have the right kind of thinking when it comes to money and wealth so that he will be able to live a more abundant, rich, and fulfilling life.

How to Encourage Your Fussy Kids to Eat When Travelling the World

1 Comment

Now that the big ticket items on our wish list had been ticked off (our dream beach wedding, making sure our businesses are now up and running smoothly — Mahal takes care of our little resort Oslob New Village and restaurant Lami-an while I take care of digital marketing for my clients via my new biz VirtuPro, — and overall management of our life here in our own version of paradise), we are now about to start our travel adventure outside of the country and one of the things I think about is how fussy our son is when it comes to eating. When traveling locally, Tuz already has a list of food he is willing to eat. But how about when we visit other cultures and places where the food is totally different from what he’s used to? Are you in the same situation? If you want to travel with your kids but feel as though it’s always an uphill battle to get them to eat, then you’re not alone. So many people are in the same position as you (as us), but there are things we can do to try and make things easier on ourselves. If you want to find out more then simply take a look below.

Louis Vuitton Cebu Salon de Luxe: Our Luxurious Experience

1 Comment

Introduction

When it comes to blending opulence, entertainment, and high fashion, NuStar Resort & Casino stands as a shining example. Nestled within this haven of luxury is the prestigious Louis Vuitton store, beckoning fashion connoisseurs and style enthusiasts from around the world. Join us on a virtual tour of this remarkable shopping destination, where extravagance meets gaming in perfect harmony.

But before that, the truth is, this was my very first time inside any luxury brand shop. Before this visit, I only had the guts to go inside a Kate Spade shop where I bought a P20,000+k handbag (which I forget now where I put I can’t find it anywhere, huhu) after I spent almost P500K on a Black Pearl 24K gold face mask package at Alabang Town Center (where I really got duped!) I was supposed to use that money for an LV bag but these Black Pearl people are such notorious sales people, ugh! Anyway, that was almost 10 years ago. Life happened. I mostly shop online these days when I have the budget (I’m extreme… I’m super frugal most of the time but when I get hormonal, all hell breaks loose in shopping lol!) This time, I had the guts to finally come visit a Louis Vuitton shop coz it coincided with my hormonal phase and it so happens there’s a shop now in Cebu!!! 🤑🤑🤑 I was super excited! My budget was less than P500K but I was really excited to buy.

Enjoy this vlog I created about our unforgettable visit that happened the day after our 9th Anniversary Celebration at Nustar. Do check it out:

Pain Relief

The Art of Vanishing Pain: A Daily Dose of Relief

Leave a comment

Have you ever wished there was an easy solution for life’s discomforts? While I can’t promise that all pain will disappear from your life (unless there is some special spell that works!), I can share with you some daily relief methods that may ease those bothersome aches and pains. After all, I know what pain feels like. I suffered from severe back pains for two years during the pandemic. I was living in Cagayan de Oro at that time and I had this on and off terrible pain on my back that radiated to the right side of my groin. I had myself checked; even had my OB looked into my girl parts down there (I had a transvaginal ultrasound) just to be sure but she couldn’t find anything. So I endured… again, as I said, for two years.
