The hot sun and sand, the cool water and awesome consistent waves of San Juan, La Union is my favorite destination in the whole of Luzon! Even if it is 5 hours away from my home in Manila, Philippines, I would gladly leave at 1AM to catch waves early in the morning and then leave after dinner to get enough sleep before work the next day! (OK, so I’ll probably have someone else drive)

Last month of May, just before summer finally took its toll, I bliss up north towards the swirling sunshine and whirling winds of Baguio City. Never mind the 6-hour bus rides and sudden outbursts of nimbus clouds, everywhere was a scenery. Her cold weather was truly inviting. I was a stranger in the city.

For that day, we owned one private, beautiful island. It was probably the most beautiful beach I have ever been to. Indeed, it's an island, but a really small one. It's sand was white but it wasn't the finest. It's water was clear but it wasn't the bluest.. But what made the difference was, that it was ours!!!

Anawangin is a cove that can be found in San Antonio Zambales, a town that is four hours away from Manila. But to reach Anawangin Cove itself, you'd still need to take a boat and that will be another hour or so ride from Pundaquit, Zambales, through two expressways and a mountain.

Vigan, one of the cradles of history in the Philippines, is home to the Heritage Village, the only village to be declared a UNESCO World Heritage in the country.

Every year, countless visitors, local and foreign, head to Vigan to marvel at the beauty of the town's historical jewels.

As we worked our way through the ashen gullies of Mount Pinatubo's shoulder, I admired the signs of rebirth underway: the steady stream of water that skipped over horsetails, tadpoles and pumice stones painted with sulfur and iron; the moss, thickets and tree ferns carpeting the ravines beneath distant avian cawing; and Aeta children keenly observing our ascent into the gaping cerulean mouth of Apo Namallari-- the almighty god of this sacred mountain, whose pyroclastic power the world witnessed during the eruption of June 1991, the largest in living memory.

A quick tricycle ride to Bantay, a town next to Vigan, will take you to a beautiful belfry of the same name. Towering over the town, the Bantay Bell Tower is a sight to behold, standing separately over a hilltop next to the equally beautiful St. Augustine Parish Church.
