omai. I wouldn't call myself that. It's been a recent discovery, that i could travel the whole philippines if i wanted to. The trip to bohol has urged my dormant love for travel to manifest. For the past days, i have busied myself planning itineraries, reading travel blogs, looking up online hotel rates, and BOOKING PROMO FARES. I thank the commercial airlines for reconsidering the working class who need to save up for trips and watch out for online promos that they could afford. Because of cebupac's piso fare and airphil's 100-peso fares, i am set for travel almost every month till october of this year. On my list are Cagayan de Oro, Dumaguete, Zamboanga, and Puerto Princesa.
I have realized that you don't have to be filthy rich to be able to do this. You could do so on a tight budget. you could go with big groups to be able to divide an otherwise large sum. you could opt for traveler's inns or lodges or dorm-type accommodation and splurge more on the activities. you can skip the tour packages and plan for yourself, taking separate bookings for the hotel, the adventure parks, the city tours.
I have realized that now is the time to start traveling, and not after retirement. Travel lets you educate yourself, lets you experience CULTURE. To say otherwise connotes ignorance.

I see one place on your list is the Cagayan de Oro. I must say you are right in including it in your list. If you want adventure then you must try the whitewater rafting in CDO and of course there are a lot more to discover.
Yes! Thanks, the trip will be on July. CDO-Camiguin-Bukidnon. I'm really excited as I've become more fond of adventure sports since my E.A.T. Danao experience. :)
