Mt. Apo: Conquering Philippine’s Highest, Reaching Our Soul’s Deepest

Featuring our on the trail moments (simple and grand) --- all I don’t want to consign to oblivion, for the rest of my life. Team Cebu. Photo was taken at Lake Venado Camp Site. Starring Mt. Apo at the back. | Photo credits to @commoncent93 To all my friends who asked how this whole climb feels like and yet I failed to answer in full details, this shall be my way of sharing our every step, all raw and unfiltered happenings of climbing Mt. Apo – the Grandfather of Philippine Mountains. Who would have thought that we'll be able to set foot on this 10, 311 Ft. above sea level elevation height. *Wooh! Waves a flag* Never did I imagine that I'll be climbing great peaks and tremendous summits in my life at this present. I've only seen this view on our history books way back in Grade School and answered: "Bundok Apo" - when asked what's the highest mountain of the Philippines - on test papers during exams. But now, I am in the picture with an up-cl

I Failed in Life and that’s Okay

Have you ever felt like you’re wading through a quicksand of failure, that no matter how much you paced your way through it, you seemed trapped in that situation, at a complete loss? Immovable. It could be a failed family business, a failed job, a failed project or event, failed career, failed relationships and so many more. And in that situation, maybe you start asking yourself – who am I without it? How am I supposed to live without it? Then, those questions, later on, turned into – what is the purpose of my life now? And you begin asking yourself about the things that are still worth living for. You twitch to look for tiny possibilities, any glimmer of hope you can hold on to, so you can start building your life again. That’s exactly me a few months ago. I just woke up one day feeling like everything that makes me happy and complete, all vanished. And I was left with nothing but emptiness. Lifeless. Like I ran out of pixie dust and I can no long

Mt. Talinis and the Things I’ve Taken for Granted in Life

Some of them are noticeable at first – until I understand further about ‘why’ I shouldn’t have. Almost zero visibility. Lake Nailig, Valencia, Negros Oriental | Photo credits to Ofelia (@ucancallmefel) I’ve been holding this experience on the tip of my tongue since the day after this major climb. I want to entirely contain the emotions first before I share this with the world. As much as I want to give it in full details, I guess words are not enough to totally describe the pain, thrill, and excitement we all felt from the tip of our skin hairs down to our skeletons. (Ready your sodas and popcorn, this is a long read. Go, go, go adventures!) So, here’s the truth of it all: November 11-12, 2018 - worse became worst, the weather is not that pretty, the trail is agonizing, no clearing, some of us got injuries, we all get a little wrecked sometimes and we even reached the point where smiling is no longer part of the option. No more in-between conversations. Ever

At 22 I Found Out My Purpose in Life

And it’s not happiness. What could it be? This realization hit me straight right at home with me. You know those thoughts that suddenly appear out of nowhere while you’re sipping a cup of coffee, and you’re alone one fine afternoon. Yeah, I’ve been thinking about life lately, since I have so much free time to reflect these past few months. And I realized that the purpose of life is not just happiness, but it’s more about being useful to the people around. "Usefulness is me, being useful. And that’s the reason why I am still here with you." So, I made a decision to stop pursuing my own happiness and start living a meaningful life by being functional to my family, my friends, and even to strangers. And found out that by doing so, I am actually at my happiest. Okay. I am one of those who believed before that “to be truly happy” is the ultimate purpose in life - that’s what I’ve been hearing from people also and what I’ve been seeing when I scrol

Chasing Waterfalls in Moalboal: Taginis Falls - Town's Hidden Gem

Like, chase literally because all we did was follow the flow and listen carefully to the sound of the water flowing so we can reach this hidden gem. As you all know (or at least those who’ve already known), Moalboal is a small town in Cebu known for its sea paradise beauty, captivating a lot of worldwide tourists. But only a few knew that this place branded with dive shops, resorts, and beaches also have hidden treasures up in the mountains. It's about time to open the curtains of “Taginis Falls”. As far as I know, there are two undeveloped waterfalls here in our town. The other one is located in Batad-Batad, Moalboal Cebu. I was there a few years ago. It has no clear trail. But I’ll try to explore it again soon and see if it has any developments this time. Okay. It’s a no-work Saturday for me so I got myself busy with destroying turrets, launching attacks and smashing enemies on Mobile Legends. In the first place, I woke up with plainly no plans at all. I thoug
