NASUGBU, BATANGAS | FORTUNE ISLAND - Passé and Beautifully Ruined

Basilica de San Martin de Tours
Taal, Batangas
I fear darkness.
But, I like it sometimes.
It gives me a different kind of scare.
Or maybe, it's the different kind of brave I get
that's what gets me excited.
And just like that; A light, no matter how least,
amidst the dusk is still the brightest.

BANAUE, IFUGAO | Patikim ng Banaue
The first morning of my 2015 is
like getting a present from an old buddy. It’s nothing luxurious nor it is
close to being grand. Yet, you know, it’s special. Just plain special. My PJ’s
still feeling damp from the cuddly weather last night and a hearty breakfast
awaits me on the verandah with Mama Nature as my back drop.
