My attempts at blogging my travels/adventures :)
Hiyesss, my time’s up! I’ve foreseen it, but didn’t expect it to be that short hahaha! So, I didn’t have much time to conquer all the remarkable places in Indonesia, the world’s largest archipelago, but I was able to maximize my slack moments by visiting some of the famous places around the area of Java.
Our itinerary for Day 2 in Camiguin included island-hopping and visiting a waterfall, and I thought it would be the most hassling experience in my swimming life (may swimming life tlaga ako oh?! Hahaha!) ever! Imagine waking up so early to prepare for the island-hopping, and getting a first reaction of “Sh*t meron na’ko!”… Tsk tsk! (First time ko kase mag-swimming na may period, at first day pa! hahaha! wala lang sa timing kaya naha-hassle-lan ako!). Pero kineri pa din! :D
Just thought about comparing our experiences on whitewater rafting in Davao (in 2010) and CDO (2012) :) Full story on surviving the near-death (hahaha! near-death talaga?) whitewater rafting experience in CDO in a later post, okay? I just feel so lazy to lay out the full story hahaha! :)
Oh perfect time to get this skin tanned! ehehe! :D tanned? Orrr should I say burned? wala na kasing ita-tan pa ang balat ko’ng ‘to!!! :D

It’s just so sad to realize that I could never own,
This sun that I wish to be mine—mine alone…

#1 – Out-of-Jakarta Trips! Of course, this comes first on my list! Gala-mode on! :D Pros: I get to see and photograph a lot of interesting places in the Indonesia archipelago The weekend trips deepen my understanding of the Indonesian culture (nux! ehehe!) I get to enhance/practice my Bahasa Indonesia skills! haha! :D Cons: Cash…
Here’s a list of why I planned for this solo bus trip:
• I want to prove to the universe that Mindanao’s a safe place to visit… lalalala! Well at least at this part Western/Northern Mindanao. I want to be able to give a clear answer to those people who always ask me if it’s safe to travel in Mindanao. :)
• I want to have a feel of a solo backpacker hahaha! I want to personally find out for myself whether solo traveling is fun or not! :D
• I want to know how much it would cost to go to CDO from Zamboanga and vice versa, and how long the travel actually takes.
• I had a sidetrip plan at the back of my mind (Iligan or Dipolog, wherever my heart and my itchy feet feel like going) >>>READ FULL ARTICLE>>>
I had the opportunity to work in Singapore (SG) during the first two months of 2010 (tagal na noh, bago nakapag-post! haha!). It’s a good opportunity to have met and interacted with people of differing culture and attitude towards work. It’s a bit challenging though (and nosebleeding for the most part of my stay in SG hehe) as the locals have a different accent that I had a hard time understanding what they were trying to say…but at least, most of them speak and understand English! :D

I happened to browse through my old folders, while I was trying to make up my mind as to which travel adventure to post in this not-so-updated blog [past travels? recent travels? ughh! Dami ko pang dapat na habuling blogposts!]. Anyway, back to my browsing through old folders now—and so I saw this folder on my biglaang-trip to Malaysia, way back 2010.
One of my childhood dreams WAS to visit the famous Baguio City. I don’t know, but the place WAS overly commercialized that I really would want to see it for myself hehehe! Until one day, after my second busy season (that was June of 2007), my office batchmates planned for a trip to Baguio. I was not that close to them yet at that time, so I hesitated at first. But because I so wanted to see Baguio, I accepted the invitation the day before the trip—and invited also one of my closest friends in the office, so I won’t feel out-of-place hehehe! >>>READ FULL ARTICLE>>>
