Chasing Waterfalls II

Image
To continue our chasing waterfalls, here's another list for you to check out: #11 Salakot Waterfalls It is located midway to Napsan, Puerto Princesa City. It's very accessible since it's just a more-or-less-3-minute walk from the highway.  #12 Pinagbugkusan Falls This is the farthest falls I've ever been to. It took about 1 hr by motorbike (from the main road) and an hour to walk which includes 11 rivers to cross just to reach the site.  Yes, going to this falls is quite risky, and it even rained while we were on the way there. 😬 One hour in the forest under the heavy rain was a torture. Hahaha But it was liberating, and it felt so good! (Click this link for a video of our Caruray, San Vicente adventure,  Caruray Adventure ).  #13 Bunuangin Waterfalls I love this waterfalls. The fact that it is a fantastic one and the one - hour trek going to the site is perfect, the site is managed by Indigenous People of the area, the Tagbanua tribe. It is ...

CHASING WATERFALLS

Seeing a waterfall gives me a one of a kind energy particularly when it takes  long for me to trek just to see a wonderful creation at the end of my journey. The feeling is "WOW."  Parang every drop of my sweat is just so worth it especially when the waterfall is surprisingly beautiful. So, waterfall lovers out there, here's the first batch of waterfalls I've visited that I want to share with you for your reference in your next chasing- waterfall adventure. 😉 #1 Aguinid Falls This is found in Samboan, Cebu, which takes more or less 5 hours (w/c includes the traffic in the city and in other municipalities😁) by bus from Cebu City Southbus terminal or about 1hr and a half from Moalboal. Just tell the conductor to drop you off going to Aguinid Falls. From the drop-off area, you only have to walk approximately 10 min. and you'll reach the site's receiving area. This is what makes Aguinid waterfalls a very interesting place to visit, since you have to ...

Your Guide going to San Vicente, Palawan

Image
Traveling these days is truly quite tiresome and inconvenient especially when you don't have the complete information of your chosen destination. So, for those who want to go to San Vicente, Palawan, here's a guide for you on how to have a fulfilling experience in this unspoiled paradise. 1. Check flights and gateways.    You have to check the gateways (either El Nido or Puerto Princesa City  Airport) if inbound flights for tourists are available. Sometimes, they have restrictions, depending on their CoViD-19 case situation.  2. Coordinate with the LGU.    Coordination with the LGU, which is your gateway, is very important, since your arrival at the airport is the official start of your vacation. ☺️ So, see to it that you have coordinated them well about the requirements needed. Nasa huli ang pagsisisi. 🙄 3. Visit San Vicente's website (sanvicentepalawan.gov.ph/tourism) for the requirements.     If you have questions regarding it...

From Cebu to Palawan (Part II)

      On the way to the peak  So, yun na nga, it was a successful climb.🙏☺️ The feeling was inexplainable. It felt surreal reaching the top. Well, you too, should try to go beyond your comfort zone and be awed with the outcome. Trust me, it really feels good when we do that from time to time. :)  Then, because I felt like my trip was so kulang, as in bitin kaayo. Hehe I went back to Palawan after 3 months, right after Christmas. But before the flight, I  remembered one of my colleagues/friends in the ESL Academy who had been always visiting Palawan (while browsing FB). I chatted her and the chika chika went on...hehehe She kinda marketed San Vicente to me. Hahaha Of course, I didn't know San Vicente. It wasn't popular yet at that time and it isn't as popular as El Nido and Puerto Princesa at present. (Mind you, it's the next big thing.😉)  To cut the story short, I went to SV after an island hopping in Honda Bay.    ...
