Experience Bohol

Bohol is one of the provinces in the Central Visayas region and is the island facing the east coast of Cebu. The island is surrounded by numerous islets. It is the third largest island in the country and is truly nature's bounty. If I have to rate Bohol from my own perspective, I would rate this island near to a perfect score because there's so much more on this island that one can experience.


Chocolate Hills in Carmen

The Chocolate Hills

Probably Bohol's top tourist destination, a geological formation scattered in the middle of the island. This unique natural wonder captured the interest of geologists, tourists, and travelers alike.

The Loboc River

A river that has become a major tourist destination because of the Loboc River Cruise, a cruise along one of the greenest and cleanest rivers in the country. The cruise fee already includes a buffet meal for lunch and an enjoyable cultural show.

Panglao Island

Composed of the municipalities of Dauis and Panglao, this island has become one of the most chosen destinations in the Philippines. Alona Beach is famous for its nightlife and there are islands off the coast too that are worth visiting, Virgin Island and Balicasag Island. The other favorite beach destination on the island of Panglao is Dumaluan.

This is a volcanic island in Northern Mindanao that is bestowed with rich natural pleasures for its waterfalls, hot springs and island beach destinations.  Katibawasan Falls There are direct domestic flights from international airports in our country such as Manila International Airport and Mactan Cebu International Airport to the "Island of Fire".

Dining in at Gustoso Pizza Shop

Their boxes of delightful pizza flavors vary. I am loyal to their Hawaiian pizza.  For those who want a decent meal I must say that their pork chicken dishes are satisfying. It's atmosphere is nostalgic. Dining in with friends is fun. Taking pictures of our food is happiness. When I am in our province, I sleep before 10:00pm. The environment is not stressful unlike the big challenge of the city life which is the long commute because of traffic. I care about my mental health so I am taking it into consideration living in one of the municipalities of South Cebu cause I get close to nature. Nature gives us hope that no matter how heavy our problems reading a book in any genre beside a living plant on a coast gives us a positive outlook in life.  Depression can hit people whether they like it or not i...
