POSTCARDS FROM PARADISE

(Triangl Bikini similar here/ Aldo Sandals/ Thrifted Sunnies)

Sunday's always meant Rest and Relaxation to me and there's no better way to give yourself a break than a trip to the beach. I've always wanted to visit Samal Island since my last trip to Davao last July and never really got the chance since we had loads of work to do that time, but I made sure that the next time I headed back, I wouldn't pass up the chance to go to Samal.

So thankful that my friends took me to Paradise Island in Samal Island, where we did nothing but chill and swim and eat and walk around. It was just so relaxing. Not to mention that it only took about 15 minutes to get here from Davao City, getting here didn't stress us out one bit. We rode a cab to the port and it only took us around 5 minutes then rode the boat for around 10 minutes and voila...white sand, blue waters and sunny skies were welcoming us with open arms.

Writing about this makes me miss the place so much and I can't wait to go back really soon.

If you get the chance to visit Davao, make sure to set aside a beach day and head on over to Samal Island for that much needed break from the concrete jungle.

Much Love,

After being so excited to upload this set and switching to a sudden "I'm too lazy to post process the photos" to finally having the time and will to do so, I'm very happy to present to you one of the most relaxing weekends I've had in a while--not to mention I had the best people with me and a week full of stress behind. I really needed this break and it was exactly what I was looking for. 

Whenever I'm by the beach, there's just nothing like waking up to the sound of crashing waves and feeling the heavenly breeze every time you walk out of your cottage every morning with drowsy eyes that suddenly make you surprisingly, a morning person.

Now doesn't this make you just want to go to the beach this weekend?

Hope we all get to go soon!

POSTCARDS FROM BORACAY

Spent the weekend at the  Labor Day Event in Boracay a.k.a. "LaBoracay" and we had the best time there. Even though so many people are against it now, I'd have to say being at the beach with good company, seeing a lot of people you know walking the coast and just pure having fun defeats all the reasons to hate.

I was impressed with Viber's services since we got a free pumpboat ride, free transportation to the house we stayed in (Thank you for letting us stay KC! :D ), and free chori burgers...(yummm) just by showing them our viber app! I also chuckled at the cleverness of their hashtag which was #Viberacay and you could also get free wifi by using this.

We spent the second day swimming in this hidden spot in Diniwid beach and sunset sailing while riding the paraw and our day was very chill and relaxing.

Our third day was more adventurous, we rode the flyfish and went island hopping and snorkeling.

We didn't party much, but it was just the fun that my friends and I needed.

Can't wait to go back next year!
