Part 3 - Pacquiao Country: Road to Forever

Everyone dreams of a love story that will last forever. Moreover, It is every lady's dream to meet her most awaited prince charming and a man's wish for a princess whom he shall live with happily ever after. :) My last day at General Santos City was a day of love, excitement, and a start of a wonderful love story for my dear friends Krysh and Ian/IJ. Like other love teams, they call theirs as KRYSHIAN! Krysh was my med classmate and we witnessed a winding road in her search of her most awaited love story. Yes, everyone has their own stories to tell and now, is another story to celebrate love and life. <3 I knew IJ since 2014 and I really admire him for his determination and persistence... hahaha. ;) I was once an accomplice in his birthday surprise for Krysh. And one of the few people who knew about his proposal plans for krysh! Thanks IJ for the trust. :) The Proposal Ring. :) Then she said, "YES"... and after the long wait, the...

Part 2 - Pacquiao Country: Gen San at its Best!

My day began with a BIG smile and a positive vibe! The hotel serves breakfast for free! Good enough for a very affordable rate. I even didn't bother to have two spoons that time. Kutsara't kutsara. Saranggani Highlands was in my itinerary and I rented a cab for my transportation. Meet Manong Taxi Driver :) The travel lasted for about 30 - 40 minutes and it was a fun ride with Manong. He gave me some inputs about the Province and I learned a lot. From the highway, we passed by a hilly and rough road  leading to the Highlands. For a hundred pesos worth of any products they're selling, you can already enjoy the amenities. The view was breathtaking! It's a place where the meeting of the land, sea and sky is at its best. I spent an hour for my Highland tour and thereafter, we went down the city. We passed by the Fish Port, Mommy Dionisia Pacquiao's old house, their Convenient store managed by Jinky Pacquiao's twin and of course...

Part1 - Pacquiao Country: The Adventure Begins

The main reason of my travel is to witness my dear friends' wedding. I felt lucky to be part of it since the venue is none other than, THE TUNA CAPITAL OF THE PHILIPPINES - GENERAL SANTOS CITY. A month prior the most awaited date, I booked in advance a back and forth ticket at its PROMO rate at around 3000+ PhP. A dream come true for me for I'm in Gen San now and is excited to explore the City. Preparation before a travel is a must. "What to bring list" is very helpful. Tickets, personal belongings, itinerary list and enough pocket money must be inside your backpacks! Haha... :) While waiting for my departure time at Iloilo International Airport, I met Dra. Gonzales (Arnold's mom - Arn was my med classmate) and this lovely couple. April and Tamsi were my college friends. They are on a tour and I wish them a super fun-filled time and experiences. I was with Apple (Med classmate) and her mom on the plane and at around 2pm we left Iloil...

Part 2 - Hidden Treasures of Antique: Malalison Island

One fine sunny Sunday morning turned into a memorable day for us - me, Yen, Jucee and Kevin. Wonderful sunny morning - best time to conquer the island. Against the light. What's important is the background. Hehe. :) The pump boat ride was fun and smooth sailing. Our trip was blessed for it did not rain, hassle free and what we felt was all excitement. The boat can be rented from 700+ or more and will assist you back and forth Culasi town. We brought some breakfast meals for our lunch and thanks to Kevin for that! Malalison Island, Province of Antique Touch down. The white sand and the clear cold waters were very inviting that time and to go there after summer is a good idea. Haha... We owned the Island until... look who I met! My elementary and college friends. :) Sim and Leomel were my elementary classmates while Cherry was my college classmate. That was really surprising! I and Cherry was planning before hand to explore the Island with our very dear frie...
