It has been my fervent dream to travel around the Philippines and around the world but it has never materialized physically. I donβt know if I can make this bucket list come true one of these days.
In my eight months in read.cash and six months in noise.cash, I have met new virtual friends and met up with virtual friends whom I met from other platforms. These are the virtual friends who I want to visit and meet in person.
But before I go outside the Philippines, I will first visit my virtual Filipino friends.
The places I have been so far in the Philippines are Manila, Baguio, Bohol, Negros, Bacolod and Dapitan. But Philippines is an archipelago with 7,100 islands. Thereβs a way lot more to visit.
I want to experience breakfast at Casa de Comida at Pug-os Beach, Ilocos Sur and be one of @bbghitteβs model for her sunset photography, though I am not a model figure but I am me.
@Codex_04 will be the next to visit. Manila is just two hours away by plane. Nothing really to do there, I just want to mess up with his work and donate some of my fats to his skinny one. (Have you read his Skinny article?) I hope it is as easy as copy β paste. πβ
While I am visiting @Codex_04, I am hoping to meet up with @firenze. She made a layout for me for a mug once. I have another project planned for her to do. By the way, she has a store in Shopee. Should you want to drop by her shop, this is the link. https://shopee.ph/vividprintingph
@bbyblacksheep is just a few minutes away from @firenze. She is worth a visit too. Her Jarful of Flavor Chili Garlic Oil is just something to keep on coming back to. You should try it yourself. I use it as toppings to a hot cup of rice and my breakfast is complete. Do you know that she also has a cooking tutorials at YouTube? You might want to check out The Foodist Diary in YouTube.
I have to drop by @aj_u2 too. I need to hug Asul for being good to his new sister Ljubav. They are both adopted kittens of Angela who took good care of them. She does know how to bring them both to good health.
Maybe a short meet up with @zolabundance2 too. Do you know that she is a journalist? Maybe I can get a tip or two on article writing.
@bloghoundβs is my next destination. I would definitely love to sleepover at their place. Imagine having the beach as your backyard and waking up to the sounds of the waves crashing onto the shores. That would be heavenly. After a cup of coffee, I would ask her to lead the way to her motherβs farm where fresh vegetables can be harvested for lunch.
Now, I will not forget to visit @bmjc98 who is the one responsible for me writing for read.cash. Without her constant prodding, I am not sure where Iβll be writing. Do you know that she built a house for herself funded by her BCH earnings? I hope she will invite me to the housewarming. π
I am not sure if @charmingcherry08 will welcome me if I visit her. She has a lot of work to do as she is still a student but she accepts academic commissions from students who needs her help. She also has fund raising projects to support students during the pandemic. Such a hardworking little thing who gave priority to her mom than to her wants. So proud of you Girl.
My next stop is in Hong Kong and try to visit @Jane. She knows where the best places to stroll and maybe do a little shopping there before I will proceed to Japan.
I would like to visit another Filipina friend whom I met in other platforms and in noise.cash, @MaryJaen26. She posted lots of beautiful pictures of flowers and places to visit in Japan. And me having a plantita heart would really like to see these places in person.
From Japan, I will fly to Nigeria. I hope my friend @Olasquare will meet me at the airport. I wonder what beautiful places he will show me in Nigeria. I really have no idea what places to visit. He has rant about the corruption in their government. Itβs nothing new to me as we also have a fair share of corrupt people in our government. They only remember the constituents during election time.
I might as well visit @Zeshan3333 in Pakistan. He once wrote that I am one of his super heroes but I am sorry to disappoint him. I am not a super hero type. I just help whatever and whenever I can. I will visit his clinic and might bring my fur babies for check-up. He accepts BCH as payment so it will be most convenient.
Now onto England I will go and visit my friend @fantagira. I would love to see the updates on what she did with her allotment no. 14A. I hope all the weeds have died and new plants have grown. I hope Ernesto, the donkey, wonβt show up. He seems lazy and just wants to rest and play all the time. Oh, before I forget, I hope she has the petunia seeds ready for me. π
@Juditka80 is also in my list of friends to visit. She lives in Hungary, beside a beautiful lake. I would love to walk there with her furry babies, Lisa and Caro. Maybe I will bring Yami and Daisy too so that while I am sitting there drinking on the tranquility of the place, the dogs will have their time to play. Though she has an account in read.cash but I think she still have to write her first article here.
I want to visit @MarSou too. I love her gentle caring words at noise. Hope to walk with her and achieve that 10,000 steps in a day. I wonder where we will go walking.
I donβt know from where is Mr. @MarcDeMesel but I want to give him a visit too. To personally thank him for sponsoring this platform. And maybe ask him to convince the noise.cash admins to remove me from the list of spams together with my virtual friends @goldencathy and @MaryJaen26. I am one of the early adaptor of noise.cash and has posted original contents. My virtual friends too are posting their own beautiful contents but we were all marked as spams.
It is quite exhausting to travel to all of these places but I know it will be worth it.
I might have another trip soon as I still have a lot of virtual friends to visit. Hope you comment down below which part in world are you now. I might have to book a ticket soon and visit you.
If you have read all the way to the end of this nonsense article, I love you for that.
Thanks for dropping by.
