About Camiguin

Camiguin is an island province in the Philippines located in the Bohol Sea, about 10 kilometers off the northern coast of Mindanao. It is politically part of the Northern Mindanao Region of the country and formerly a part of Misamis Oriental province.

Camiguin is the second-smallest province in the country in both population and land area after Batanes. The provincial capital is Mambajao, which is also the province's largest municipality in both area and population.

The province is famous for its sweet lanzones, to which its annual Lanzones Festival is dedicated, the picturesque Sunken Cemetery of Camiguin, and its interior forest reserves, collectively known as the Mount Hibok-Hibok.

How to get to Camiguin Island from Cebu City? 

There are actually 2 options in getting to the island, its either by the sea or by the air.

By Sea. Basically, if you are coming from Cebu City you have to go to Jagna, Bohol wherein you can ride a vessel bound to Camiguin.  As per advice from my cousin who is currently living in Camiguin Island, the trip going Camiguin from Jagna, Bohol is only during Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. There's also an upcoming new shipping company that will soon operate in Camiguin. Fastcat will have a trip from Bohol to Camiguin (vice versa) that may only take 45 minutes to 1 hr.

Anda's scared to death jumping spot, Cabagnaw Cave Pool

Anda is indeed a place with beautiful and amazing spots. Though the town of Anda is pretty far from Tagbilaran City, but as previously mentioned in my other post about Candijay, the long travel is all worth it. The good thing about long travel is that you can enjoy the sightseeing with other places along the road, meet new people or friends and explore different places.

I know, today's environment is very stressful, the reason why most of the people are looking for a place to chill and stroll with.  Though long travel may need a little extra money, but one thing that I can say is that, the experience is something that can never be bought by money. It is something special that you may treasure and will last forever.

Cabagnaw Cave Pool

Anda, aside from magnificent white sand beach, Anda de Boracay, there is also another stunning spot that you may love to wander with. Just a few distance from Anda Public Market, there was this interesting and not so develop Cave Pool. It is located somewhere in the middle part of the meadows and coconut trees. It is not fully developed yet because the place has no fence yet for everyone's safety (both animal's and human's safety), no safety ladder for those who will go down and up.

Cabagnaw Cave Pool has a semi salty water because it is connected to the septic tank to the houses nearby hahaha haha, I'm just kidding. The reason why is the water is salty because it was connected to the sea underneath.

Tabogon : Featuring Archt. Raagas's Rest House

G’day mate! How was your summer so far? Mine is so stressful due to a hectic schedule, char Lol. But seriously I was busy with my studies and at the same time for my work. I wanna share something about what I’ve experienced in Tabogon in the Northern part of Cebu. As we all know, living in the city during the summer season is not easy, especially when you’re stuck in the middle of the traffic, it is very stressful and can cause frustration to people around. Stressful in a way that we are experiencing a very hot season and that is why we need to hang out sometime or “kung may time”, go to a place to relax or to cool yourself down. I am pretty sure that I’m not the only one who is craving for a place to relax with magnificent cold water such as cold spring or a water falls or even sea water. But for me, beaching is not a good idea because of the very hot temperature. But of course, it will depend on your preference.

Municipality of Tabogon

Tabogon is one of the municipality under 4th district in Cebu province. It is more likely 90 kilometers away from Cebu City proper and the travel period will take more or less 3 hours depends on the traffic. One spot that I know in Tabogon is their enchanted Guiwanon Cold Spring. It is located in a few distance from Tabogon proper. Guiwanon Spring is almost the same with Ubong Spring in Dalaguete (Southern part of Cebu). The spring is connected directly to the sea and of course, the water is kinda salty and most especially the attractive and enchanted Balete tree.

Balete Tree

Balete tree (also known as Balite or Baliti) are several species of the trees in the Philippines from the genus Ficus that are broadly referred to as balete in the local language. There are heaps of freaky story about balite trees but for me, all of them are just fairy tale and was made by old folks. Guiwanon Cold Spring is 4 feet in depth when low tide and has estimated the depth of 7 feet when high tide. We went there early in the morning because we’re expecting that no guest yet during early morning but unfortunately we are wrong, absolutely wrong! A weekend trip is not an ideal time when visiting the place because there are heaps of tourists from other or different places.

Badian Day Trip: Ang Paglukso sa Kansanto

Hello pepz!

Gday? 

Its been a long time since I have posted something on my blog due to a hectic schedule, 'cause you know celebrity life hahaha. Bitaw oi, I was very busy being half student and half employee but I can manage because I do believe there is no busy person, it is just a matter of balancing one's time. hehe. 



Anyways, you heard about Kawasan Falls right? I dunno where are coming from if you know nothing about Kawasan Falls lol but seriously the reason why I wrote this article is to share the experience we had in the place. When we say Badian, I am pretty sure that the first thing that will come out to your mind is Kawasan Falls right? I know right? lol.

Exploring Bohol and Its Natural Beauty

During Cebu's Sinulog Festival this year 2017, me and my friends (Louren and CM) decided to go out of town or out of Cebu. On a rainy morning after our shift's, we went to Bohol via Tagbilaran  City - Ocean jet.

Plaza Rizal

When we arrived in Bohol we visited Plaza Rizal that was full of pigeons. They are amazing and they love to eat pop corn and peanuts. When you feed them they will literally flying and be scratching your skin. Note, if you have sensitive skin I would highly suggest not to bring any food in the plaza to avoid calling their attention. Lol

Plaza Rizal

Panglao  Island - The Buzz Cafe

From Plaza Rizal we quickly went to Panglao  Island, we just take a walk in the seashore near Henan Resort. We eat our lunch at The Buzz Cafe, we ate the fresh salad with petals of a flower, yes it's literal petals of a flower. I was amazed because that was my first time eating fresh salad with petals lol, love fresh salad though.

The Buzz Cafe

After we eat our lunch we went to bus terminal near ICM Mall to ride a vhire going to Garcia Hernandez, we stayed at Charice's house. We met her mother for the first time and she was amazing and funny.
