I Know That You Don't Know--Bungulanon Falls

It’s been a while since we had our last bonding moments with my cousins, so what we have in mind was to meet up in a place where we can have swimming. One of my cousins introduced their farm in Magpet, North Cotabto, which is near Bungulanon falls. As far as I could remember it was a weekend of October when we had our road trip to Magpet. The first thing we did there was to have fishing then grilled the fishes we caught in my tito’s pond. After our fine lunch we dived like blazes in the cold waters. The water was so cold that we could have our warm soft drinks be chilled.

Whenever we have visitors from outside the country or someone who have never been in Magpet, this is one of the places we recommend if they have been dying to see a beautiful “naturey” place. This falls is just one of those wonders of the Philippines that wasn’t explored yet by the sightseers. I ‘m proud to say that I have been here and experienced the beauty of Magpet, North Cotabato. 

My First Time in the “Queen City of the South”

April 29, 2009—my sister graduated in University of the Philippines Cebu City with the degree of AB Political Science. That was also my sojourn moment before going to college. Thinking that attending my sister’s graduation could be my vacation as well and since my family was in Manila that time, I traversed Cebu City alone. Traveling alone for an hour is dull as dishwater but the view helped me survive the rest of the hours.

It was a quite rainy when I arrived in Cebu so I took a cab from the airport to our hotel.

I was deprived from malls and shopping for all my life since I stayed in a place where malls are not much important. The first mall I’ve gone in was in Ayala. Compared to other malls, this mall has an edge from the malls in the city. But I was not really after the malls; I heard something about the temple in Beverly Hills that was made by the Cebu's substantial Chinese community. The place was really amazing and literally breathtaking. After my tour, i decided to hunt some foods in the city. I bought their famous delicacies like dried mangoes and otap, but I enjoyed more with their daing. Cebu is indeed a very nice place to stay in because I can see how productive the place is. I believe that someday I would go back to the place where I first saw a real “city”.
