The Climb: Mt. Silangan and Kairukan Falls

Heeey! It's 2017 and I am finally back to bring you a new blog post. My apologies because it took me this long before blogging again, but I'm so glad I'm back to typing. Last year, I stopped hiking and traveling because I was saving up for a new laptop. You know, priorities and adulthood. LOL! However, a real adventurer can never let go of what her heart truly desires, hence this hike.

Travelogue: Top 3 Things You Can Do in La Union Aside From Surfing

The moment I stepped down from the bus, I almost forgot we traveled for six (6) hours just to reach our destination. The stores along the highway sounded so familiar to me - Figaro and Moonleaf - to name a few.  It felt like I'm just in Manila, without the pollution anyway. Haha! 

La Union is a famous surfing spot up north from the metro. The place somehow reminded me of Boracay because the establishments are also along the beachfront. However, aside from these, are there other things one can do other than play with the waves? Well, you'll be surprised that there lots of activities in La Union that are just waiting to be explored. Oh and by the way, when we were there, the waves weren't big enough for surfing. So yes, some alternative would be a great idea.

Travelogue: Liw-Liwa, San Felipe, Zambales

I have always been a fan of accessibly-cheap getaways. Luckily, my boyfriend and I found one in Sitio Liw-Liwa in San Felipe, Zambales. Not only is it inexpensive and near the metro, it is also very peaceful there. It's a good four-hour bus ride from Metro Manila. How cheap you ask? Well, the beach is free. You can swim all you want, just don't forget your sunscreen! You can pitch a tent near the shore or choose from the wide array of affordable accommodations within the area.
