Palawan Diaries: Uno

I opened my 2014 with a bang.

I went to Puerto Prinsesa, Palawan last January with a couple of friends. We decided to de-stress and chose this place after a long year of hard work. I mean what's not to like in Palawan?

Burot Beach: Silent Sanctuary

This trip to Burot beach has been long planned like we all gonna die if we cannot have it fulfilled. How would you feel if you are planning a trip for a very long time but seeing the day of fulfilling it is like a camel going through the eye of a needle. Frustrating, honestly.

Many have already gone to this place and most share it to their blogs which i religiously visit to be familiar of what to expect. I've been to a lot of beautiful beaches my life but this should not be an excuse to not appreciate this little gem.

Capones Island: The Charmer

i woke up early the next day despite having uncomfortable sleep the whole night. i dont mind sharing the tent with six friends. IT.IS.THE.RAIN. being the early bird, i decided to just drag myself and made coffee for myself and for those who are already awake.

Anawangin Cove: The Right Decision

"My dream is to have a house on the beach, even just a little shack somewhere so I can wake up, have coffee, look at dolphins, be quiet and breathe the air."
-Christina Applegate 

the recent trip to Anawangin cove was one of the trips i haven't put too much effort on when it comes to planning. it was just out of curiosity, the need to escape the hustle and bustle of the city and stresses at work that pushed me to search random getaway on Google. the initial plan was Puerto Galera. then Batangas. just when i thought we agreed on Antipolo, a search result of Anawangin cove made it all change. 

few keyboard clicks later, kaladkad tours came on my screen. i made a quick chat with friends, inquiring their thoughts and approval. then a decision was made, F.I.N.A.L.L.Y.

after an arrangement with kaladkad tours, we were set to leave by 6am on a Saturday after our shift. our van picked us up and the three-hour trip to zambales began. we bought food for breakfast from the nearest fastfood and ate it in the van so no time's wasted. after a few asaran and hagalpakan sa tawa moments, lack of sleep and the smoothness of the trip, we dozed off. thank God for the wonders of NLEX.
