This should be on your Siargao bucketlist!

Away from the hustle and bustle of General Luna, are these majestic islands situated in the Municipality of San Benito. It offers the same experience as the tri island tours, but without the crowd.

In less than a week's time, my bestfriend is finally tying the knot!

To my bestfriend of more than a decade, my confidante, my partner-in-crime, to one of my happy pills -- this is it, you're finally getting married! 🥳🎊🥂

Time flew so fast, I remember during our college days when Ram used to visit you in the campus. I remember when we hung out together to destress after a tiring day of working as corporate slaves. I remember when we planned our random trips cos we all shared the same passion in travelling. I'm so thrilled as one of your friends to witness your budding love story come into full bloom. I always knew that you and Ram are a match made in heaven.

And now, I'm more excited to see what's in store for the both of you, to witness you build and achieve your dreams together, to be here and be part of your lives as Mr. and Mrs Panganiban!

Wishing you all the best, my favorite couple! 🥰

PS: Longterm honeymoon in Siargao pleaaase 🥲

"I once thought quiet was the absence of sound

But learned it's the space
where small sounds can be found

I once thought dark was the absence of light

But it is the place where starlight is bright

The quiet, the dark,

the dreams once embraced me

They let me feel safe in a world that erased me"

- Excerpt from Hypatia's poem from Orion and the Dark

Somewhere in Brgy. Datu, Pilar.

I've been a frequent goer to the northern part of Siargao for almost 2 years now, but it's only this week that I gave in to my curiosity and desire to stop by at this unknown spot just along the road. It felt like one of those places you've read about in children's books and fairytales.

I'm officially adding this in my "not-so-mainstream photoshoot locations in Siargao".

This is not a drill, Catangnan Bridge solar lights are officially back in action! 🥳

Brings back a lot of pre-Odette memories when we would kill time at night by the bridge, or do random photoshoots.

Ahhh fun times 👌

Just a normal weekend at the bridge. 🌉

Unbeknownst to the general public and to the inquisitve eyes of many, lies a hidden and underrated gem -- Dinagat Islands or officially, the Province of Dinagat Islands.

It is part of Caraga Region and was once part of the province of Surigao del Norte until the end of 2006.

Many have set foot already to it's neighboring paradise Siargao but only a handful knew about the concealed beauty this mini archipelagic province has to offer. Dinagat Islands is home to numerous picturesque islands, pristine white sand beaches, lakes and views that will make you gasp in awe. Dinagat features the same wonders like the other mainstream tourist destinations but without the crowd. This, for me is the perfect place for outdoorsy introverts like me, or for those who just want to have some "me time" and just appreciate the place.

This should be part of your travel bucketlist!

Make sure you visit these places if you're bound to this paradise:

📍 Hagakhak Rock Formation
📍Blue Lagoon
📍Miracle Cave/Pool
📍Duyos Beach
📍Bitaog
📍Pagkawasan
📍Lake Bababu
📍Banuyo
📍Jelmar's Resort

Many thanks to Jmalls Travel and Tours for the tour services we availed.
