Falls | Buruwisan Falls of Mt Romelo
In a corner of this river trekking, the powerful cadence of Buruwisan Falls welcomed us.
This is one of those trips where I just hitch up, but unlike my previous
adventures with this group, this time it feels like I'm already part of
the pack that I am with. Tired of planning my own trips or going solo, I
welcomed the invite from a good friend Arnie of The Kid Wanderer. The
same gang that I was with in Pico de Loro, these guys is of the same
age bracket as me so I can easily relate. Adventurous and sometimes
reckless, it is with this group that I learned to "Ratrat" (local slang term for trail running) a trail
especially when backtracking to where the jump off started.

A Side Trip to Climbing Mt Mabilog
A refreshing side trip after climbing a mountain. The visit to Bunga Falls of Nagcarlan in Laguna was mainly for us who just trek the muddy trails of Mt Mabilog to freshen up before going back to Metro Manila.

TRAVEL GUIDE | Baler, Aurora
TRAVEL GUIDE | Baler, Aurora
The Surfers Haven
Baler is a charming provincial capital of Aurora and location of the famous surfing site for Luzon due to waves coming from the Pacific. What’s so endearing about this lovely town is that it is not limited to the experiences from the beach. Covering a vast plain and some forested area rich with local floras and faunas, natural falls some with famous majestic cadence, rock formations along the coastal areas that is a delight to landscape photographers, and even so for the rich political history and historical contributions this quaint little town and the province it uphold offers. Most but not all, I’ve explored in a day aboard a local tricycle with a hired humble driver.

Aurora | Trekking Ditumabo Mother Falls
AURORA | Trekking Ditumabo Mother Falls
Aurora's Enchanting Mother Of All Falls
The mother of all Aurora's Falls. Certainly a well deserved name by just looking at that 140 feet drop. Luckily, I get to take on this trip on a cloudy day. Aurora province is like a lush garden, and trekking the 1.3 km from the Aurora Mini Hydro Plant was like a dream walk in a forested park.

Sagada | Splash From The Big Falls
SAGADA | Splash From The Big Falls
The Long Trekking And The Big Reward
" Buwis Buhay" or death defying, the term Pinoy's love to use when they do something that pushes them to their limit. The long trekk along the Aguid Rice Terraces just to get here in the Bomod-ok Falls (Big Falls) of Sagada is tiresome, being in an open rice field expose to the sun. It's no wonder people would call this "Buwis Buhay, likened if you have been missing on cardio exercises as this would likely burn all the calories taken at breakfast prior to trekking. The big reward awaits, and while I push myself, struggling along with my water bottle and heavy camera to witness this wall of cascading natural wonder, I relent while taking a lung full of the freshest Sagada air.

Camiguin | Katibawasan Falls
Katibawasan Falls
Camiguin's Cold Shower
Exploring Camiguin Island in a day, is one of the most exciting part of my Northern Mindanao Series. I originally planned to stay overnight in here, after all it's November 5, 2011, it would be a nice place to spend my birthday. After meeting Kuya Jojo in Benoni Port of Camiguin, we took an early breakfast meal and was immediately brought to our first itinerary for the day.
Taking stock of the Katibawasan Falls, in my home language, Tibawas means passing through an ordeal or surviving something, but I don't really understand what they mean when they named this falls Katibawasan, something I forgot to ask Kuya Jojo about.
