High in the mountains of Baguio






















My last 2 nights of my school tour was spent in Baguio City again. It's my 3rd time being on a school trip and our destination was always in Baguio. I guess they can't deny the fact that it is so chill in Baguio City. Even myself love the city!

I visited my auntie there and see my cousin who's now a grown up teenager. I invited my friends to come and have dinner at the house then take a walk around the town of Baguio. The next day, we didn't go with the itenerary. We do our own Baguio trip: where to go, where heading to. Luckily, we still reach the last week of the Panagbenga Festival. You can still see the wonderful and colorful flower creation of the people there. I really want to pick some flowers but I think it's prohibited since it's still in its competition state. 

Have you tried any tea shop in Baguio? Yes InfiniTea and also ZenTea are my favorite spots of tea in Baguio. Place is really artsy but small. I suggest they find a bigger place because it is really chilling and comfy at the same time. So we ended up our tour in Mines View and Good Shepard to buy souvenirs. Try their Ube Jam! You'll love it!

Kapurpurawan Rock Formation








Simple art describes a lot of things. 










Have you heard the storyof Biag-ni-Lam ang? It is a pre-Hispanic Filipino epic poem of the Ilocano people of Philippines which is a life story of the eponymous hero of Ilocanos.




































Are you an enthusiast of nature? If you enjoys an awesome creation of our nature, I'll show you some masterpiece on the rocky coast of Burgos Wind Farm, Ilocos Norte. On my last post I showed you the windmills on the mountains, rocky mountains rather of Burgos. Now we'll head south part of the farm. 

The KAPURPURAWAN ROCK FORMATION is also called as "Immaculate Splandor" for its unimaginable image. It is known for its creamy white and streamlined limestone formations, which have been sculpted by the different oceanic and weather forces. You'll be amazed how can nature form this kind of rock. Once we set our foot on that huge formation, we were stunned with its beauty. I seated on that rock and even climbe don it just to take a picture. It leaves powdery form on my clothes and skin when I touched it. Maybe it's the effect of the sea salt. 

Great scenes everywhere. You'll see the vast ocean ahead of you and at your back you can see the gigantic windmills above the mountains. It is a long walk but you'll never realized you're tired cause the surroundings uplift excitement. This is my last stop in Ilocos Region. We'll go back South and take a turn to climb up the mountains of Baguio City.
