I so love Beyond Toxicity. This blog is more than just a reading experience. The places and the food are so vividly captured I feel like I was there strolling the streets, marveling at the attractions and tasting the sumptuous treats. I also love that most of his gastronomic adventures are shared with his family.

The blogs are informative and fun to read. When you read the blogs, you just want to go outright to the places and try the food. The pictures area always nicely taken, food looks appetizing and the scenery always nice. The opinions are honest and sincere.

I remember I stumbled into Doc Gelo's blog looking for a guidepost on Chinatown. I've been following the blog ever since the first post I read because (1) It is easy to read. The ease makes it more real for me reading from afar. (2) I admire how insightful and laid back one can get amidst a daily profession. (3) It inspires me to keep on blogging and writing. (4) Every bright and colorful post radiates with wisdom reminding me to just enjoy life and my family!

love this blog! the photos are always extremely vibrant and seem to jump off the computer screen. docgelo really has an eye for great shots and angles and takes the most breathtaking pictures i don't usually see in other blogs. i also love his refreshing candor, his way of telling it as it is, his passion for food and new experiences, and his musings as a simple family man. basically, i like the experience of "living vicariously" through his tales and photos!

The reviews of Georgetown establishments are straight from the heart, no embellishments. The pictures truly capture the essence each place. And we love the mix of food, heritage, pop and travel features. Docgelo may well be an ambassador of each place he visits in.

He blogs with passion, sincerity and depth which is so evident in the subects and pictures he post, fine qualities of a food and travel blogger. He writes interesting stories of his adventures with food and places he has visited which make me want to eat the food he eats and go to places he's been to. Keep it up Doc.

Doc Gelo is the authority when it comes to Penang. His passion is evident in his posts, and photos make the places he feature a lot more inviting. What I also like about his blog is how his stories are engaging. He talks about his life and his family in such a manner that they are truly personal. In this blogging age, you won't find many blogs like that. Kudos Doc Gelo!

We love 'Beyond Toxicity'. For us, Docgelo opened up Malaysia as a very warm and welcoming holiday destination - and hopefully more when our working days start to dwindle. The photos and accompanying blogs keep us hungry for not only the divine food, but the wonderful culture that is Malaysia. Terima kasih

Beyond Toxicity gives a glimpse of what different countries like the Philippines and of course, Malaysia have to offer. The nicely shot photos make reading this blog more interesting and exciting. Most importantly, Doc Gelo allowed us, readers, to look into their family's experiences and personally, that made me feel like I'm a part of those wonderful experiences.

I have been an avid reader of Doc Gelo's blog Beyond Toxicity and I must say I'd always look forward to his posts especially the foodie blogrolls;) When he moved to Malaysia i thought i'd be reading less of him..thinking he's in a different country with the whole family and all the trappings of being an expat would mean lesser time for the loyal readers:( But indeed his moving to Malaysia merely opened us to a neighbor's culture and how it promoted us to the many similarities between the two countries...and how no matter where you are from.. when there is respect for each other regardless of culture,color,religion.. harmony and peace can be achieved:) This is what Beyond Toxicity promotes..and more!

Doc Gelo's Beyond Toxicity has inspired me ever since to indulge in the joy of travelling and unravelling the hidden culture in the places you visit. It lets you widen your view of Malaysia in a more insightful perspective - with the discovery of new food, history, arts, holidays and more - rather than just seeing it as the simple Malaysia, a Southeast Asian country whose state religion is Islam.

Doc Gelo's blog about family, food and fun defines the everyday life of an expat living in Penang, Malaysia. Through food and travel posts he gives a great glimpse of what Penang is about and what it has to offer. His blog can encourage the readers to visit the place through his stories and his photos.

I never imagined my professor in college loves to travel. His passion for teaching, writing and taking photographs let me see a different side of him. It's really heartwarming to know that Doc Gelo can share this with us who don't have a chance to visit another country. Blogging is not just for expression of the heart in writing, it is also an inspiration to others and gives us a good glimpse of the world outside the Philippines! Looking forward to more post Doc! :) And I never had the chance to say thank you.. You're one of the teachers that I'm really proud of and at the top of my favorite teachers list :) Good luck and God bless :)
