gusto nyo ng nakaibang gimik, i think it's time for us to challenge our physical self and appreciate the beauty of the day (most ppl prefer to be nocturnal creatures). di ba it's fun. i hope some of you could share the good places where ppl can enjoy nature-tripping. share naman oh?

Yup! I've tried hiking when I was in college and during work. We used to go every 2 weeks to any of nearest hiking spots but we only stayed overnights due to our hectic schedules. Level 1 mountains such as Mt.Maculot in Cuenca,Batangas is one. It was a great feeling up there with other hikers from different schools. We trekked the Banahaw forest to reach Imelda Falls. You don't have to bring any water because the streams are clean and pure mineral water. We spelunked the Bulacan caves where we found an underound water system.

I consider myself an outgoing person. Other than trekking (and if I have money),I like to go around the country. I've been in Pagudpud, Ilocos Norte: Cebu City: and best of all, Boracay Island!

I am currently overseas and I do miss those experiences. When I get back, I'd start over again.

I've been a windsurfer for more than 10 years... camping in Lake Caliraya and sailing there as well almost every weekend from 1988-1996.

it's been 2 years since my last climb or trek. it was on mt. tigbalang in batangas. it was awesome! first time ko iyon at 3 beses ako nadulas. nakakatawa kasi some kids in slippers were just running up the hill as i struggled every step of the way. but when you get to the peak, the view is breath taking! grabe talaga. i've been trying to find a group to climb with again somewhere easy like that. anyone climbing soon and could take a beginner? yung balikan lang sana preferrably on a saturday. would really appreciate it. thanks!

Used to be a regular weekend scuba diver sa Anilao; went scuba diving sa Davao, Cebu, Florida! Dream dives: Palawan, Indonesia, Australia.

Tried trekking sa Mt. Maculod. Ganda. Kaso binaboy na ng mga taong katulad ko, e. Ang daming basura, at kalbo na. It's the beginner's mountain kasi, e. Everybody has climbed it!

Been spelunking sa Sagada at sa Palawan.

Now I'm into white river rafting and snowboarding.

This is really a been there done that list! Ang yabang!!!!!! 'Yamo na. Hindi nyo naman ako kilala, e!

yep! most memorable was during my senior year in high school. we trekked a mountain just to take a dip at this cave that has a spring running to it (before it plunges down into a waterfall) a day before our high school graduation! (kaya imagine the aches and muscles pains we had during the day we officially got out of high school!) ang saya!!!!

yeah, its nice to do something aside from going to bars and clubs and stuff (which i dont do often din)... when my family goes on vacation every summer, we go around the Philippines...

Bohol has a wonderful underground waterfalls (yata! forgot the name) .. in a cave.. very very very nice! galeng non! then we went sa isang cave sa taytay, rizal (forgot the name too). we went to Batlag and Daranak falls before that. we also have fun kayaking sa Davao whenever we go there. Great snorkeling places there, mostly sa Samal Island... we also did somewhat of a trek sa Davao, sa Maragusan. Great Waterfalls there! sarap nung tubig!
