QUESTION: if u had to pick a place in PH to travel to, where and why?

what is this new fresh tumblr :((

i have a couple!!! but mainly Batanes Vigan and Palawan!

Batanes - it's the northern point of the whole Philippines. And its a storm capital, but also quite peaceful. Their houses are also quite a travel tour for architecture students. Also quite cold all year round!

Vigan - it's a colonial town. Quite full of history. Very Spanish colonizer times so quite interesting but so so so pretty.

Palawan - honestly not a beach person but willing to make an exception for this nature wonder like so breathtaking.

HBU!!! Anywhere u wanna go in SG (or even outside of SG)?

Breathtaking Batanes

An archipelago province in the Philippines' Cagayan Valley is called Batanes. It is the most northern and smallest province in the Philippines, both in terms of population and land area. It is known for its scenic waters and terrain and clean environment.

One of the famous tourist spot in the batanes is Racuh a Payaman the “iconic hills and ocean view in Batanes”. The location is actually called Racuh A Payaman, but since one visitor said, "It looks like the Marlboro Country," Racuh A Payaman has also come to be known as the Marlboro Hills. It is a well-liked tourist spot where people from all over the world can freely wander around and mingle with cows, horses, water buffaloes, and locals.

Enchanting landscapes that will surely take your breath away. The cold breeze on top of the rolling hills make you just lie down and look up on the blue clear skies and daydream.

Wake Up in BATANES

I woke up in a land that is beautiful and perfect where it is unspoiled by human wastefulness. A place that offers some things that are not available anywhere else in the world. This exactly got me thrilled! Even if it is considered to be the smallest province in the Philippines, it shows off to people its own solitude of tranquility opposite from a busier city life. Indeed, something that most of us would want to experience. Batanes has its own captivating and breathtaking views, from its rolling hills that are covered with green fields down to its seas that has different shades of blue; from top-of-the-world view decks to its enticing alleys, everybody will truly need to be in Batanes.

To travel is to discover something. And for an individual to discover, calls to encounter something new and astonishing. Moving ceaselessly from the features of the city, experience nature sounds, clean fresh air to inhale and a laid-back zone where I could simply unwind and find a sense of contentment with my inner soul is something amazingly fulfilling.

This fantasy land is comprising of various top attractions in North Batan, South Batan, Sabtang, and Itbayat. I cannot remain quiet about it however might want to share the spots I am astonished about this heaven.

The Vayang Rolling Hills in North Batan gives a panorama of Batanes where relaxation is to be achieved while feeling the tropic winds. The strong blow of the tropic winds creates a breeze that is invigorating as a direct result of the cool wind coming from the ocean.

Jomalig Island

Jomalig Island is an isolated paradise in the easternmost part of Polilio Group. Pronounced as “humalig”, Jomalig is an island municipality of Quezon Province. Locals of the island are called “Jomaligins” and are among the kindest persons I have met.

After six hours of ferry ride, at last! We arrived in this kind of paradise. We stayed in Baluarte Resort in Jomalig Island. You can see a sand bar in the middle of the sea in this part of the island. I thought you will only witness golden sand beaches in the island but I was wrong.

I was amazed by the sea breeze around three in the afternoon. ‘Coz it’s very coozy, calming, relaxing, name it! I feel like I am in other dimension where peace resides. 

This is the first time I saw a golden beach with a light turquoise beach in my life. I promise you, this is indeed a Paradise!

This is the famous sand ripples of the island - Kanaway Beach. The beauty of of this beach is seen when it’s low tide. 

In this photo, you can see that there is a part of the island that has a white sand. This is the Pamana White Beach Resort - the Little Boracay. Perfect for people who are in a state of depression. You will realize that there are so many reasons to live for.

The Little Batanes of Jomalig Island, The Lingayen Cove. “Ang ganda, PROMISE!” The cove is so breathtaking, you can see and realize that Jomalig is situated faraway from stress.

Puno ng Walang Forever - ONLY IN JOMALIG ISLAND! Don’t forget to ask your Habal-habal Driver to visit this tree. As the name itself, this tree is situated away from the forest so they called it A Tree that is Loner. I as a travel enthusiast to loves to take take pictures, always consider the position of the sun. That is indeed a travel tip. Sunrise and sunset is highly recommended to add a dramatic scene to your pictures!

As I am about end my write-up, it really hurts because a piece of heart is left on this beautiful paradise. Too many pictures that is worth sharing! In the picture is me with my Baguio-based friends who want to witness this majestic island. Ican’t believe that there are also other people who are like me that will make a way to travel or in other words, kaladkarin.

This picture is captured in Sadong Golden Sand Beach. Your 20 pesos is really worth it!

The saddest part of every travel - going home. Going to Jomalig Island is really an adventure. So you must always be ready. There is schedule on power supply so bring your powerbanks and the like! But I wish that can inspire you to visit this place. “Nakakaligalig itong bisitahin!”

Before

When were you born? April 21st, 22 years ago.

Where were you raised? By who? For the first couple years of my life I lived with my dad’s family in Manila, but that didn’t last long because Manila is just so fucking filthy so we moved to my mom’s family in the city I currently live in. Until I was 10ish I was raised by extended family because my parents were still working hard. By the time they were able to climb enough rungs on their ladder they bought a house and they started looking after me and my siblings directly.

Do you have any siblings? How old are they? Yeah, Nina is 19 and my brother is 16.

What were your first words? No clue, I don’t think my parents got to take note of it.

What are your most vivid memories of your childhood? Playing outside, shifting through the three big kids’ channels to watch Drake and Josh, SpongeBob, Pokemon, and Mr. Bean every night, and babysitting my younger cousins. I also still remember the alcoholism issues but I try not to focus on that side.

What were some of your favorite things when you were young? The first thing I was crazy about was Bratz. It was the cool thing to like those days so I had Bratz shirts, lunchbox, pencil case, backpack, boots, etc. The prizes and giveaways for my 7th birthday were mostly Bratz stuff. When I got a bit older I started liking Disney stars (because Hannah Montana, Jonas Brothers, High School Musical, and Camp Rock lol), Pokemon, and WWE.

Do you have a lot of photos of yourself from before? Yeah, quite. My dad had a digital camera and a camcorder so he made great use of both.

Do you ever want to go back in time? Only when I find myself strugging in the present. I don’t actively yearn to have my childhood back, because I know it had some miserable parts too.

Or would you rather forget those days? Like I said, there are bits I would rather forget entirely.

Who was your kindegarden teacher? I had three kindergarten years but my very first teacher was named Kathy.

What did you grow up listening to? I didn’t have much of a taste as a kid. The first band I liked was Paramore and the rest is history.

What games did you play in the past? On my phone I had Snake and Space Impact. On my dad’s old laptop I had Insaniquairum, Cake Mania, Diner Dash, a brick breaker game I forgot the name of and a military-ish game I also forgot the name of.

What was the best birthday party you ever had? My parents threw me a grand party for my 7th birthday and it remains one of my favorites.

How about the best vacation? I have different reasons for my different favorites... Palawan’s scenery was breathtaking, our accommodations in Boracay are still unrivaled 11 years later, Batanes’ views were simply something else, Sagada was life-changing, the amount of history preserved in Bataan and Vigan is beautiful, Singapore was a nice glimpse to the modern world LMAO, Bali was super exotic and fun, and my East Asian cruise will always remind me of gaining my independence.

Who was your first crush? Andi.

Who was your first love [if you had one]? Gabie.

When you look back on yourself in the past, do you ever want to laugh? Always. That’s why I don’t look back lol. It’s embarrassing.

What was the best thing about being really young? The fact that my biggest worry was making sure I finished playing outside at the right time so that I can also still catch my favorite shows in the evening.

After

How old are you now? I’m 21, turning 22 in a little over two weeks. I know I’m getting older because the ages are starting to get more and more insignificant D: Who are your closest friends? Gab and Angela. Do you have any nicknames? Just one main nickname. I’m called Byn at home and by relatives. What do you enjoy doing? It depends on my mood. These days I like watching videos, doing a looooot of surveys, and catching up on reading on stuff that I couldn’t read up on because I was too focused on acads while I still had school. But on a normal day I like eating out and spending time with my friends and doing new things together with them. Where do you enjoy going? Coffee shops, chill bars, bazaars, food hubs, my org’s common area. Are you dating anyone? Who? Yeah.

Describe that person? Pretty pissed with them rn so I have no nice words to say, bye.

When you look in the mirror, do you like what you see? Maybe 7 or 8 times out of 10, sure. If you COULD change anything about what you see about yourself, it'd be... My teeth. Name 5 of your personality traits:  1. I’ll be shy with new people at first and whether I warm up quickly to them or not will always be unpredictable; 2. Trust is very important to me and I can easily cut ties with people if I feel like they broke mine; 3. I’m patient in most contexts but can be prrrretty short-tempered in some, i.e. if I have to deal with shitty co-workers or if I’m driving, lmao. 4. I’m scared to do most things on my own and I like having at least one friend with me all the time. 5. I’m quite sensitive and have to work on having thicker skin. What are some of your prized possessions? My dog.

Do you care what others think of you? Some people. I try not to care, but sometimes Personality Trait #5 will rear its ugly head haha.

What's important to you? A lot of things? This is a very vague question. Feeding my dog everyday is important lol but so are people’s political stances because it tells me what they think of the rights of those less fortunate than them.

How likable do you think you are? I honestly don’t think I am at first. I’m pretty aloof and simply quiet at first, but I don’t do it on purpose. I’ve also been told I’m a little formal and intimidating when meeting me for the first time, so I try to do my part in changing that impression and being friendly.

Do you ever have days where you feel useless? Of course.

Do you ever have days where you're very happy with yourself? Yes.

What are you best at? Getting in tune with people’s emotions, reading body language, that kind of stuff. Sometimes I wonder if I’m good only because I’m overwhelmingly anxious and have an uncontrollable need to please people, but I guess as long as I keep making people happy it shouldn’t matter lol.

What do you wish you were better at? Being more assertive.

Do you have any goals you want to accomplish? Yeah sure. I have more traditional goals like having kids but I also have goals for myself, like going to Wrestlemania 50 in 2034.

What song most accurately describes you/your life? I can’t think of any right now but if there is a song talking about having nothing to do during a lockdown in the middle of a pandemic outbreak, that song is it.

Do you regret anything at the moment? Right now, no.

Do you have any secrets you never intend to tell? I don’t think so, there’s at least one person who knows any one of my secrets.

Who do you think you take after the most? I have a fair share of qualities from each of my parents. My temper and attention to detail/neatness/organization are from my mom, and my shyness and the fact that I’m really good at giving gifts are all my dad.

How about the person you resemble the most? My mom. But I’m also told I have days where I look more like my dad.

Do you belong to any cliques/cultures? (preps, jocks, punks, goths, etc) Those days ended in high school.

Are you accepting of people that aren't like you/your own crowd? Yeah, as long as they aren’t being disruptive, bullies, or plain assholes.

What memory would you like to disappear from your mind forever? My grandpa’s one drunken night that went too far. I’ve already talked about it in a past survey and I don’t plan on mentioning it again for a long time.

If you were someone else, would you be friends with the person you are now? Yeah but I’d be pretty intimidated by her lol.

You could never imagine yourself without: My dog.

Do you consider yourself a smart person? Sure.

Can you be very deep sometimes? I can be, but I’m still a bit selective about what I go deep on. I hate talking about philosophy and morality, for one.

What color would you use to describe your personality? Probably like a mellow shade of olive.

Have you ever been "confused" about yourself? Yeah. I’ve been mostly confused about my sexuality until Dan Howell made a video validating me and everyone else who didn’t want to label themselves and it was okay if they just identified as a formless blob. Since then I don’t let the confusion eat me up anymore.

What friend in your life has been the greatest influence to you? Gabie.

What celebrity do you idolize? I hate that word but I admire Beyoncé a lot.

What's your favorite famous saying? Can’t seem to think of any right now. I don’t really rely on quotes.

[sometime-in-1995]
