Siquijor Beach love


Went to the beautiful island of Siquijor during the weekend with some friends.
 I fancy the beach there so much! 




Here are some pictures of my grandmother's backyard.


There is a Law in the island against cutting these trees. These trees serve as the natural habitat of birds and all kinds of sea creatures.





Yep, there is a sanctuary at the back of my grandparent's house and because of that, it is a really good place for snorkeling. I saw different kinds of colorful fish and they basically hid from me (hehe). I also saw a lot of sea urchins and tried to avoid them.

Watched the sunset with my friends and it was a perfect way to end the day. :)

Siquijor with A1


Our second A1 summer trip with the rest of the gang. This time, we're in Siquijor! The island is also known as the Mystic Island (coz of all the mystic stuff going around the place) or Island of Fire (because of numerous fireflies in the island).


Just arrived in a cloudy Siquijor Island.

Stayed at Eve's wonderful abode :)


Luckily, it was also the fiesta in the barangay so we were able to eat a super deli dinner!




Here, we are in the pier to pick-up the boys who took the last boat ride to the Island.


A1 girls


A1 boys


Our first stop was Camp Bandilaan which is located at the mountains.


Walked uphill toward the top


Finally arrived at the tower! Notice the sweat on our faces. But despite the exhausting walk, we managed to keep our composure for some pitcures! SMILE! 



This is a beautiful church in Lazi but we didn't bother to look inside.



We also posed in front the oldest convent in Asia!



A dalakit Tree like the one in Canlaon but this one's only a century old.


Then we arrived at Cambugahay Falls. The "hat girls"( which includes me..haha) posed infront of the sign.. 


I love Camilla's bright colored hat ensemble! 



Swimming Time!





And because our very own "Tyra banks" wanted a photoshoot, we decided to thicken our faces for some sensual pictures.


Pretty! 



Finally arrived at the famous Salagdoong beach at Maria. To overcome the heat, we ate some local icecream. 


Dinner with the group. 


 The beautiful shoreline.


Setting up our tent beside the sea.


 The boys playing around.



Good morning! We just woke up after 4 hours of sleep. I wonder what happened last night..haha :)




I am not fond of heights but I am not scared of it either! haha..


Now it's time to leave. We're disassembling the tents we put up the day before.


Last picture at the beach!


It was one of the most memorable trips I've had in my life. And of course, it wouldn't be complete without these guys. Looking forward to more adventures in the future! Love you guys! 

Next stop, Dakak or Bohol? hmmm :)
