Travels and Adventures

I'm just an ordinary person who loves to communicate through writing rather than talking :). I'm not extraordinary at writing either; it's just something I enjoy besides reading and singing. I created this blog because I believe there are a lot of you like me out there and I want to learn about you and your experiences. I'm less outgoing than the average female- that I know- but I'm flexible and easygoing enough to enjoy what should be enjoyed. I admit I became a little 'kill joy' once when I had a 'not-so-mature' boyfriend and I lost some 'not-so-understanding' and 'quick-to-judge' friends. I'm not so proud about that and of course I can't blame it all on him (or them) and if I could turn back the time, I would. It was just as well because I learned who my real friends are. Life must go on. I thank those people who stood by me despite of what happened. Thank you so much. You know who you are. I'm glad I have you as my friends.:)

Now, let me ask you: do you love to travel? I do. Although I don't always get the chance to do so what with work and all, but when I get the chance I make sure I enjoy it as much as I can. I love going to other places especially those that get me closer to nature because I don't get to do that often nowadays. Nature has its way of soothing my hurts, troubles and worries. It helps me solve (though sometimes temporarily) my problems. It makes me open up my mind to possibilities, and it boosts my creativity. Do you feel the same? A lot of people I know do. Its ironic though that some of us who grew up in rural areas would eventually prefer to live in the hustle and bustle of a city - like me. But I always like to go back and savor the clean air and the peace and quiet that most rural areas bring. I could sigh right now because I miss San Carlos City where I grew up and spent most of my childhood and teenage years. It's a small city in Negros Occidental, about an hour and a half from Bacolod City by bus or vehicle for hire (v-hire) and about four to six hours by bus from Dumaguete City, Negros Oriental. It's a relatively peaceful city; most of the folks are pretty simple although a good many of them are wealthy hacienderos or hacienderas. Perhaps I could post some pictures of my hometown- it's a nice place really, perfect for soul-searching activities (and after all, home is where the heart is, right?) Yes, I'd definitely include some photos here. Anyways, I'd not been to many places in the Philippines but I've been to a few with great memories, and one very exciting experience in Singapore. See some of the photos I'll be posting later! :)

And oh, I'd love to hear about your experiences too; anything at all. Be it about family, love, friends or your travels. Feel free to share them here :)
