Secret Bohol Beaches, Local Gems & a Tiny Travel PC That Surprised Us

After busting our butts off in the garden this week, we take a little break from our off-grid life in Corella and head to Panglao — stopping off at some of our favourite hidden gems along the way. From century-old churches to empty stunning beaches, a cheeky lakeside break and sunset piña coladas, we wanted to share what makes this part of Bohol so special. But this trip wasn’t just about R&R… we also put a surprising little travel gadget to the test: the GEEKOM A5 2025 Edition Mini PC — a tiny desktop computer they claim can handle 4K video editing, work tasks, media and even gaming on the go. We brought it along to see if it really could keep up with our life on the move and spoiler alert, I think it’s going to become my permanent desktop PC.
