Manuroyta!

              I've been to Bicol Region twice.  First visit was spent mostly by touring Legazpi City, exploring the famous world class resort known as Misibis Bay Resort and a little wander in CamSur Wakeboarding Park in Naga.  As what the locals always say: wakeboarding, old churches and world-class resort are not the only things that define Bicol, so, I planned another trip to explore this region more.              I've been to Cagsawa Ruins and took several pictures of Mt. Mayon in different angle from Cagsawa park but I have not tried seeing Mt. Mayon with 5kilometers away from its peak and never reaching its base in a rough-rugged-fun way.  Having said that, I'm quiet curious how it felt like.  I contacted Tourific Travel and Services, one of my trusted partners-in-crime when it comes to travelling up North (they offer several ...

             Sorsogon may sound near but its actually far, not really as famous as other cities in Bicol Region.  Despite its not being explored by many, I still decided to chose this place as my next adventure destination.  After experiencing the ATV ride to Mount Pinatubo in Cagsawa Ruins yesterday, we decided to rent a van and travel to Gubat, Sorsogon.  We left the Time Zone Hotel at around 5am so that we can save time in travelling ( we are only planning to explore Sorsogon in one day).

               I thought I have explored Zambales to its end but I thought wrong.  When I consulted Google about the list of the islands or a must-see in Zambales - one of the names on the list happened to be unfamiliar and eye-catching - Magalawa Island .                  I have been to Zambales several times, I knew travelling at night is best - less passenger, no traffic (less travel time), you can sleep while travelling.  From Victory Liner Cubao, we took the 11:30pm schedule to Olongapo (the earliest trip from Cubao to Sta. Cruz is 6:30am).  It'll cost you P212/pax.  From Olongapo terminal, we took another bus going to Sta. cruz, only P130/pax  to Iba, Zambales Victory Liner Terminal.  Add P50/pax if you want to be drop at drop-off point - Brgy. Pangolinan, Paluig, Zambales. We chose to stay a little bit longer in Iba terminal because it was ...

                 I've heard a lot about  Bicol Region , about its famous volcano with a perfect-cone and the dare-devil adventure in  Camsur Water-Sports Complex , the spectacular beauty of  Caramoan Peninsula  and the tongue-scorching cuisine.  Oh, must I mention that this is the home of our local barbie-doll Bb. Pilipinas winner and 1st runner up Ms. Universe 2010 Venus Raj?                 Our main destination is Legazpi City but we are sad to leave without visiting the famous Camsur Water-Sports Complex in Pili, Camarines Sur , not to add, its only a three (3) hours or less from Legazpi.  So, having realized that, we hired a van from the Legazpi to visit Naga, CWC in Pili and Iriga.  It cost us P3,500 for the whole trip (10 hours usage including fuel, driver and local tour guide).  If you don't know anyo...

               When we decided to hit the beach again, bask in the sun and enjoy the sand - we chose to go to Nagsasa Cove this time.  This place may sound familiar for some but most of us have not been in this cove yet.  I am guessing one of the reason its because it is farther compared to Anawangin Cove or Capones Island.                 Our trip started from Victory Liner Cubao.  We're not able to get the direct trip (Cubao-Sta. Cruz/Iba) for only P270/pax (drop-off San Antonio), so we took the Cubao-Olongapo trip which cost us P212/pax and another bus ride from Olongapo City to San Antonio, Zambales fro an additional of P44/pax.              Hence, this is a "let's-go-now-na!" trip, we have not prepared food nor overnight stuff that we must bring other than clothes and jackets.  So we dropped by San Antonio public market located at the ...
