It was my first time to visit Tacloban this is one of the monuments I visited. Only the front of Ship remained to be a reminder of nightmare they experienced but also serves a reminder that there is always hope as long as we will it.. #taclobanseries #layasnikulas #bebetter #hopeitworks #igdaily #igphoto #visayas (at Brgy.

One has to start with every day with a decision.. to be happy.. “Years may wrinkle the skin, but to give up interest wrinkles the soul. You are as young as your faith, as old as your doubt; as young as your self-confidence, as old as your fear; as young as your hope as old as your despair. In the central place of every heart there is a recording chamber. So long as it receives messages of beauty, hope, cheer and courage, so long are you young. When your heart is covered with the snows of pessimism and the ice of cynicism, then, and then only, are you grown old. And then, indeed as the ballad says, you just fade away” - Douglas MacArthur #inspirationalquotes #douglasmacarthur #palo #taclobanseries #southernadventure #macarthurlandingmemorialpark #visayas #layasnikulas #lakwatserongkulas #biyaherongkulas #bebetter #livebetter #lovebetter #remembertobekind #bestrong #havefaith #kulasdiaries #layasjournals #layasph #everydayisagreatday #livelaughlove #taralayastayo #the_ph #pinasmuna (at MacArthur Landing Memorial National Park)

Not all hidden is truly lost.. and not all beautiful is easy to find.. "The most beautiful people we have known are those who have known defeat, known suffering, known struggle, known loss, and have found their way out of the depths. These persons have an appreciation, a sensitivity, and an understanding of life that fills them with compassion, gentleness, and a deep loving concern. Beautiful people do not just happen." - Elisabeth Kübler-Ross #tinagofalls #caibiran #biliran #naval #taclobanseries #chasingwaterfalls #layasnikulas #biyahenikulas #lakwatserongkulas #isnotacrime #alwayssummer #kalboonthego #seelife #livelife #travelpinas #bebetter #livebetter #lovebetter #positivity #everydayisagreatday #southernadventure #kulasjournals #philippines (at Tinago Falls)

If traveling feels like home.. then, I can say I am "homesick".. "Every dreamer knows that it is entirely possible to be homesick for a place you've never been to, perhaps more homesick than for familiar ground." - Judith Thurman #caibiran #naval #biliran #taclobanseries #chasingwaterfalls #layasnikulas #lakwatserongkulas #isnotacrime #alwayssummer #southernadventure #bebetter #livebetter #lovebetter #livelife #lovelife #seelife #everydayisagreatday #tarakulas #positivity #kulasph #pinasmuna #pinoytravels #travellog #travelig #sinopinas #itsmorefuninthephilippines #philippines #2017 (at Tinago Falls)

Nope, I'm not an Aquarian but actually a Gemini.. my mom usually tell me about my twin when I was in her womb.. test usually shows a shadow of another baby with me inside her womb.. they call it my "kambal tubig".. just thinking it might be the reason I like being in the water.. comforted.. not alone.. it could just be a shadow or possibly a water spirit to guide me.. "The images of myth must be the daemonic guardians, omnipresent and unnoticed, which protect the growth of the young mind, and guide man's interpretation of his life and struggles." - Friedrich Nietzsche, The Birth of Tragedy #spiritguide #myths #folklore #childsimagination #caibiranbiliran #tinagofalls #biliran #taclobanseries #walkwithme #livelife #lovelife #bebetter #livebetter #layasnikulas #lakwatserongkulas #lakadkulasph #everydayisagreatday #walkwithme #sinopinas #biyaherongkulas #southernadventure #hidden #pinasmuna (at Tinago Falls Caibiran Biliran)

"Am I that damaged that I depend myself to faith? Am I too bitter that I do not see others with good intentions? Am I too scared that I shut down easily.. I like the silence of the church.. it's esoteric energy fills me.. ironically, I hear more..

Live without regret and be generous with a forgiving heart.. "It's so hard to forget pain, but it's even harder to remember sweetness. We have no scar to show for happiness. We learn so little from peace." - Chuck Palahniuk, Diary #surfcamp #calicoanbeach #guiuan #samar #taclobanseries #southernadventure #visayas #nature #biyahenikulas #layasnikulas #isnotacrime #lakwatserongkulas #nature #pinasmuna #lakbaypinas #travelph #singlehood #beachlife #vitaminsea #chasingwaterfalls #paradigmshift #livelife #lovelife #loveyourself #bebetter #livebetter #everydayisagreatday #philippines (at The Surf Camp, Calicoan Island, Guiuan, Eastern Samar)

It was an overnight decision to have another adventure with friends to the south - Tacloban. As soon as arrived in Tacloban, me and my friends immediately set for one crazy weekend. San Juanico Bridge was the first in our list.Tulay ng San Juanico, it is locally called, is part of the Pan-Philippine Highway and it connects Samar and Leyte across the San Juanico Strait. Its longest length is a steel girder viaduct built on reinforced concrete piers. With a total length of 2.16 kilometers, it is the longest bridge in the Philippines spanning a body of seawater. The bridge was dedicated to Ferdinand Marcos' wife, Imelda Marcos. The bridge was slightly damaged by Typhoon Haiyan in November 2013 but repaired. #sanjuanicobridge #samar #tacloban #tidesoflife #wecanbebetter #lovelife #livelife #positivity #makeitmatter #lifeisnorace #substanceoverhype #beach #sky #visayas #comingoftides #everydayisagreatday #journey #southernadventure #visayas #taclobanseries #becauseyoumatter #selfdiscovery #layasnikulas #lakwatserongKulas #bebetter #isnotacrime #philippines #2016 (at San Juanico Bridge)

It is naive to think you know someone so well. To think that whatever time you have shared in knowing their habits, their history, their stories, their weaknesses, their strengths, their wounds, and deepest corners of their heart could ever sum them up-- is unjust. It is a shame to be unaware of the shifts and changes that happen every day, every moment, right before your eyes. The little crinkles around her eyes that get ever-so-slightly deeper and wiser. The silver linings of her hair. The wonders of time and how they show their presence in such ways. You may think that a flower is simply a flower. A flower that looks and smells just as simply as it always has. Or that the ocean is simply salt water and blue. The flower is always moving, changing, blossoming, and giving life to the birds and the bees. The ocean's tides rise and fall with the phases of the moon. The currents change direction. And depending on how the sun hits the water, the colors and shades of blue are in fact, infinite. Everything around you and everyone is always changing. Take time to smell the roses. Take time to watch the tide. Take time to see your love with new eyes. It would be a shame to miss it. - Kayko Tamaki #lifeqoutes #tidesoflife #wecanbebetter #lovelife #livelife #positivity #makeitmatter #lifeisnorace #substanceoverhype #calicoan #beach #sky #guiuan #easternsamar #visayas #comingoftides #everydayisagreatday #southernadventure #visayas #taclobanseries #becauseyoumatter #selfdiscovery #layasnikulas #lakwatserongKulas #bebetter #isnotacrime #philippines #2016 (at The Surf Camp, Calicoan Island, Guiuan, Eastern Samar)

“Anything else you’re interested in is not going to happen if you can’t breathe the air and drink the water. Don’t sit this one out. Do something. You are by accident of fate alive at an absolutely critical moment in the history of our planet.” » Carl Sagan... we tend to rant about things that we don't approve in our lives.. if we just take time to think about it what we think is right or when are we going to take some courage and effort to make things better.. ” #caibiranbiliran #tinagofalls #samar #layasnikulas #isnotacrime #lakwatserongkulas #chasingwaterfalls #magicofnature #reconnect #friends #visayas #taclobanseries #everydayisagreatday #travelpinas #pinasmuna #biyahero #layasnikulas #isnotacrime #bebetter #bealive #livemore #alwayssummer #witnessnature #liveit #loveit #paradigmshift #philippines #2016 (at Tinago Falls Caibiran Biliran)

It was a crazy side trip to Guiuan.. The long drive was worth it as we visited a hidden gem within the tropical forest and sharp limestones of Sulungan.. The Linaw cave. The name Linaw or Linao Cave is from their local dialect which means "clear".. pristine blue cool waters reside in its main lagoon with salt and mountain waters converged. Estimated to 20-30+ feet deep yet one can see clearly the bottom. Eerie it may seem.. But one place you shouldn't miss visiting! #linawcave #guiuan #easternsamar #taclobanseries #southernadventure #visayas #nature #biyahenikulas #layasnikulas #isnotacrime #lakwatserongkulas #nature #pinasmuna #lakbaypinas #travelph #singlelife #chasingwaterfalls #paradigmshift #livelife #lovelife #loveyourself #bebetter #livebetter #everydayisagreatday #philippines #2016 (at Sulangan, Guiuan Eastern Samar)

I remember starting swimming when I was very young.. We have to travel to Pope Pius XII Center in Manila every weekend during that summer.. Maybe it was then I developed my love for swimming.. for water.. It gives me a certain peace every time I go in.. It seemingly drowns all noise from my reality.. And still does today.. A friend that seems to wash my worries away.. A habit of mine that I can compare to hugging a tree.. which some believe absorbs the negative energy from you.. They know secrets.. That we never can comprehend.. A flow of magic that is only felt by the heart.. #lulugayanfalls #calbiga #samar #lakwatserongkulas #southernadventure #magicofnature #reconnect #friends #visayas #taclobanseries #everydayisagreatday #travelpinas #pinasmuna #biyahero #layasnikulas #isnotacrime #alwayssummer #witnessnature #liveit #loveit #paradigmshift #philippines #2016 (at Lulugayan Falls, Calbiga, Western Samar)
