Carabao Island, Romblon

Dear ,

So yeah, I've spent my birthday touring this little island. What better way, huh? We rented a habal and spent half the day figuring out the map, getting fined by a local barangay for "ignoring" a sign, getting out of a dead end, looking for bike trails, asking the friendly Romblonans for directions, braving out rough(!) roads, eating kikiam at the viewpoint, getting roasted under the 3pm unforgiving sun, hunting seaglasses, talking about the world and the milky way, and -- chasing the sunset.

We finally settled in this sweet little beach.

This one's for the books.

Love,

Kuding-Kuding Point, Carabao Island

Here’s a supposed to be a very photogenic point, with the turquoise-est of waters, but since we got here at noon, with the harshest light (i love superlatives!), this is all i can send you. The route here was not easy, must need a daredevil rider and a wild soul.

Love,

Hambil Beach, Carabao Island, Romblon

This is Hambil Beach - one beach that i'm excited to see, that one i lost sleep about. Beautiful, with ferocious winds, big big waves. Stretches to eternity, but is surprisingly empty.

Love,
