Napcabbing

 

I recently had the opportunity to stay at this Napcab at Munich International Airport.  After a nine-hour trip from the United States, I was faced wih a long layover in Munich (I arrived at 8 a.m. and my connection flight was at 9:45 p.m.).  I really needed a bed to stretch my back for at least a couple of hours. This napcab is located near the arrivals and Service Center areas at Terminal 2. It is outside the security checkpoints.

Making the reservation was easy to do. The monitor outside the Napcab will walk you through the steps to enter the cabin. You’ll need a credit card and your phone to get the passcode to gain entry to the room. Once you’re in the cabin, you can lower the blinds for privacy. The room is clean and has plenty of space for your luggage. There’s a desk and outlets if you need to charge your devices. The bed accommodates one. I understand that there are cabins now that have a double bed.

You can set the alarm for your preferred wake up time using this screen in front of the bed. You can also set up the lighting mood or turn it off as you please and if you wish to adjust the temperature in the cabin, the thermostat for air cooling/heating is right by the door.

After you have booked the cabin for the specified time, the monitor will show “occupied”. No once else will be able to use it until your time is up. If you need to go out to buy food or go to the restroom, you can leave the room but don’t forget your password so you can re-enter the cabin. When I stayed here in May 2025, the rate was €17.00 per hour. Rates vary depending on the time of day you use the cabin. For more information about locations, rates, hours and more, you can check their website at napcabs.com.

The Art of Carlos Botong Francisco - Progress of Medicine in the Philippines

Pre-colonial period Pag-unlad ng Panggagamot sa Pilipinas (The Progress of Medicine in the Philippines) is a group of four large-scale paintings depicting healing practices in the Philippines from pre-colonial times to the modern period. Carlos Botong Francisco was commissioned in 1953 by  Dr. Agerico Sison who was then the director of Philippine General Hospital (PGH) together with   Dr. Eduardo Quisumbing of the National Museum, Dr. Florentino Herrera, Jr. and Dr. Constantino Manahan. These oil on canvas paintings measure 2.92 meters in height and 2.76 meters in width (9.71 ft x 8.92 ft) and were displayed at the main entrance hall of PGH for over five decades. Owing to its location, the artworks were in a state of "severe deterioration" at the beginning of the 21st century from exposure to heat, humidity, dirt, dust, smoke, insect stains, grime, termites and an oxidized synthetic resin used in an earlier restoration. These canvases were restored three times, the last was...

8 Heritage Houses of Iloilo

Lizares Mansion The province of Iloilo on the island of Panay has a rich trove of heritage houses, left over from the sugar industry boom in the 19th century. Iloilo also had the largest port in the Philippines at that time which facilitated the export of sugar to foreign shores and deposited money in the hands of the sugar barons. The barons dropped their earnings into the acquisition of properties in Negros and the construction of beautiful homes in Iloilo, many of which are located in the vicinity of the Jaro Cathedral. The Lizares Mansion was built in 1937 by Don Emiliano Lizares for his wife, Concepcion Gamboa and five children. The family fled to safety when World War II broke out and the house was occupied by the Japanese military. The family returned to the house after the war but left once again after the demise of Don Emiliano. It was sold to the Dominican order in the 1960s and was converted in 1978 to a private school, Angelicum School. The mansion now houses the ...
