All about my vacation

I am away from my family for almost 10 years now. Yes, I must say that I am independent. I can live with my own life which before I never thought I can do it. I can say that living alone is very challenging because you’ll be the one to cook your food, doing your laundry, cleaning your room, and the most challenging – budgeting! I’ve learned a lot of being alone.

If given a chance to travel, I would love to go to my home town because there are places that I never been visited. I'd love to go to the beach and to explore nearby the area.

However, it was my privilege to visit my home town for the third time. This time, I took a bus from Manila going to my province. I was so excited because it was also my first time to travel by land; it takes almost two days on the road. 

In that journey, I saw a lot of various beautiful scenes. I passed by different places and it was only me in that trip. I've no relatives or friends with me during the trip so it was really exciting.

The trip was my unforgettable trip because we got stranded at Leyte. We supposedly ride a ferry or the so-called “roro” and the ferry will take us to Lipata Ferry Terminal. On Friday of April 6, we’re late for the first trip and we need to wait for the next trip at 8 o’clock in the evening. So that’s it! I learned to be patient. Well, passengers have nothing to do but to enjoy the place while waiting for the next trip.

After long hours of waiting, the ferry took us at Lipata Terminal (Surigao). Finally, I’m HOME! J

Here are some photos during my trip. Enjoy!
