To fulfill the long-procrastinated wish of transforming travel experiences and amassed bulky images into life - where interesting and amazing places, people and cultures I've encountered in this side of the planet could turn a rather mundane and tedious journey into an interesting and amazing experience...


Hence, this travelogue-blog.

Mt. Isarog to Mt. Mayon to Mt. Bulusan

Take 1: April 18-19 - Pili, Camarines Sur and Legazpi City

Take 2: July 31, 2006

And I was very fortunate to had these Bicol trips last year.

But after next week, please, I should leave Bicol (Take 3) after clearly viewing what had happened to the perfect-cone shape of Mt. Mayon. And they should not be like any of these:













At the time Bicol was devoid of any sign of Mayon's silent fury that invited visitors,
Bulusan's outburst that postponed our butanding trip,
and the massive calamity that the raging supertyphoons Milenyo and Reming brought the Bicolanos and left thousands still homeless.



Mt. Isarog may still look like the same though.

But after my next Bicol trip (Take 3), I just know I will never be the same again. Definitely.
