I am part of all that I have seen..



          It is a common saying that travel broadens the mind, you can get to know other cultures, and you can meet many different people. Ever since I was this innocent little kid I dreamed about traveling to places, and new living have always fascinated me. I’ve always wondered what it would be like to speak another language, to grow up learning different customs, or to live in a completely different way than I do now. My wings are already existing, all I have to do is to fly. Days passed by, years gone by, those dreams are slowly getting real. And suddenly, these exciting experiences were at the end of my fingertips.



               The long unvarying hours at the plane end as I walked down the airplane and the cool South Korean breeze hit me for the very first time like strapping whiff of eau de toilette from the Zara store.
            Seoul, every teenage dream. The very famous N’Seoul Tower, the historic Gyeongbogkung Palace, the Cheonggyecheon Stream, their KTX (Train to Busan fever) and Subway Transpo, Nami Island, the Myeongdong Center, Gangnam Road, and the breezy Han River Cruise Tour, etc. There is nothing quite like traveling, like seeing a new place (or a favorite place) for the first time.

           Travel as much as you can, as far as you can, as long as you can. Island hopping, snorkeling, camping, good views, and wide array of white and gold sand beaches, the emerald green beaches of Jomalig Island is a perfect example of islands in an island. But behind its magnificent views are stories of local people who struggles for a living, its heart melting (I almost cry, goose bumps). Like they are always saying, “You will never really understand the true meaning of your life until you travel and experience how others are living theirs”. What you get by reaching your destination isn’t really important as what you get by reaching that destination.





When was the last time you did something for the very frist time? Hiking and sightseeing, and how about viewing mountains on top of a mountain.  Up in the clouds at about 7402 ft. above sea level. Mt. Sto. Tomas Summit, is by how the most adventurous thing I’ve ever experienced, I didn’t get a buck after hike but surely nothing can beat the view up there.





           Don’t listen to what they say, go and see. Batangas boast with blue waters and fine sand beaches.  Masasa Beach in Isla Tingloy was my very first island tour. It was a “life begins at the end of your comfort zone” sail, a D.I.Y (Do it yourself) travel.





              You lose sight of things, but when one day you’ll be at the place you wanted to be, everything balances out. Who can’t resist the Balinese-like resort in Antipolo, Rizal? Luljetta’s Hanging Garden and Spa is way unique than other resorts in town, showcasing different kinds of pool, the organic menus and sauna, signature massages, the tickling Dr. Fish Spa and the sought after Infinity Pool that brings you closer to Indonesia. 







              In traveling, it gives us respite from our dull and dreary routine. It relieves us of worries. Benguet’s BenCab (Benedicto Cabrera)Museum and Café Sabel gives you an authentic old Baguio vibe, feeding you some of the best views as art, nature, and dining comes together. 






                I wanna travel the world, go to every country, to every city, take pictures and be happy. I know it’s still a long way drive to reach those dreams, but I know they are dreams, and they are meant to be chase.

Once you traveled, the voyage never ends. The mind can never break off from the journey
