Last weekend I had the best weekend here in Philippines. Together with my friends we went to Negros Island to Dumaguete. I was very excited about the trip because it was the first time I went to beach here :) I love going out of Manila during weekends to feel the Philippines. When we landed we rent a taxi for a whole day just to move around in easy way. We drive to Twin Lakes (national park) Nice, fresh air with lots of green areas. Beautiful palms and mango trees. Have some boat trip on lake and amazing view. Afterwards we went back to Dumaguete to see a little bit city and buy fresh fruits :) hmm mniam :)there is nothing better than fresh mango, pineapple or bananas :) Around 4 pm we drive to another city to take a boat to Apo Island. The boat trip was interesting :) I was afraid even scared to be honest. Just on the ocean with big waves but somehow we survived. The trip back was much more excited and dangerous even hard to describe when you are in the middle of nowhere it is storm you are on a small boat ah… (brrrrrr ) but the Apo Island was as a Paradise. You can see it on pictures. This is a beach that I was always thinking about. Beautiful blue sea, white sand, shell…, palms! Sad that we was there only 1, 5 day but eaven that it was unforgettable day. The island is very small around 700 people leaving there; they are very kind and helpful. Always with a big smile and asking many questions. When we got back from island we took jeepney back to Dumagetue but of course riding in normal way it will be boring :) so we were travelling on the roof :) yes :) it is possible here :) and it was so fun when 4 Europeans girls were on the roof of the care and all people that we passed were having to us and greetings! It was special day. Big relax, I could discover Philippines again and even more love this country :) waiting forward for more such weekends!
