a surfing student on Bagasbas Beach in Daet, Camarines NorteOf all the places he's been to in 2008, Tutubi personally picks Calaguas Island, not Boracay, as his favorite and most memorable.
the unspoilt beach of Calaguas Island...powdery white sand that's not hot on your feet...it's paradise without the crowdTo show an updated map of his wanderings around the Philippines:
My Lakbayan grade is B!
How much of the Philippines have you visited? Find out at Lakbayan!
Created by Eugene Villar.Where will Tutubi find himself in in 2009?
Most probably:
The place of exile of Jose Rizal in Northwestern Mindanao
Beach resort in Zamboanga del Norte
The home island of the Philippine Benevolent Missionaries of the Philippines
A "forest town" in Bicol Peninsula
The touristy beach of Mindoro where Spanish galleons plying the Manila-Acapulco route used to find shelter
Tutubi's first sojourn outside Asia may materialize in a few months.
re-visit the Queen City of the South, a few highly-urbanized cities in Calabarzon, Eastern Visayas and Caraga region, the City of Smiles and home of Masskara Festival, Heritage City and home of Dinagyang Festival, the town of the hanging coffins and lastly, UNESCO World Heritage site as a Continuing Cultural Landscape plus many more, probably unplanned travels!
Expect a higher Lakbayan Grade rating at the end of 2009 and someday reach Tutubi's ultimate goal of exploring the Philippines...
Mula Batanes hanggang Tawi-tawi!
wow! i too am eager to see calaguas. but im planning to go to cagbalete this year. maybe calaguas if time permits.
ReplyDeletedami dami mo rin talagang napupuntahan. may plano ka bang pumunta ng basilan?
the dong, calaguas is really, really beautiful, hope to return there someday or visit similar unspoilt beaches "hidden" somewhere. i also plan to visit basilan, but probably if peace is at hand...the ultimate goal is to visit Mula Batanes hanggang Tawi-tawi :P
