Baler, Aurora: 2D1N in the "Birthplace of Surfing in the Philippines"

Baler is a 6-hour drive from Manila but it took us almost 9 hours since we went on a long holiday and the expressway was practically packed. We left at around 3 am and arrived past noon, but because we weren't able to book a hotel/room beforehand, we had to look for a place to stay first

We were only staying for one night so we immediately drove around Baler to visit as many places as possible.

Hi

I actually feel bad about neglecting this blog so much. Maybe I lost my passion to write last year since a lot of things happened and I've been to many places as well that I can't juggle life, work, & blogging anymore :( Fortunately, I missed sharing stories & photos so here I am trying to catch up!

So last year, I
- Quit my first job (and..)
- Found a new job. I am currently a homebased graphic designer working for a company based in Australia
- Opened my first Instagram shop (but can't update it now because I'm still looking for new products that I can sell)

And new places I've been to (which reminds me that I also need to update the Bucketlist section of my blog):

- Baler, Aurora (surfed for the first time!)
