Random places I've been to-Part 1
Blog 64-13th
Date :April 22,2022
Time :3:55pmWhen I was still a single mom I still have the chance to wander and take a vacation whenever I am feeling tired from work.
This time I want to share the random places I've been to.
First of all is my Beloved province of Bohol. I am a native of Bohol but it's not always that I got the chance to roam around my province especially since our province has so much to offer especially tourists spots.
Of course, I can't afford to have a vacation from one of the resorts here. It was the year 2014 when the first time I got the chance to spend time at Alona Beach. Alona beach is like a mini version of Boracay. It has white sand beaches too. If you are fun of nightlife then it's a place to go.
The year 2015 when the first time I set my foot in a place called Anda. It's one of the towns of Bohol. It's one of the coastal towns of Bohol. We stayed for more than a week at East Coast White Sand Resort. It's a very secluded resort. Perfect for people who want to relax and unwind. Anda is known also for having white beaches.
Had my second time in Anda when I was with my family. We had a mini-reunion. We stayed in Little Miami Beach Resort. We did enjoy our stay there with my family.
I wish to go back to that place one day and bring my own family for a mini-vacation.
It's the place where you can find my family LOL just kidding. You can find it there the tarsier. It was my 2nd time at this place. That time I was with my ex-Danish Boyfriend, my mom, and my daughter. The place is perfect for people who love nature vibes. As you explore the place to see the Tarsier you will be accompanied by a tour guide. They will help you understand the nature and habits of a Tarsier. You are not allowed to touch them and you have to stay quiet. Since they are nocturnal animals day are less active in the daytime.
The falls are located in my hometown called Balilihan, Bohol. The first time I visit this place was the year 2014, it was March, typically summertime so the water was too shallow at the bottom of the falls and the water from the falls itself was dripping slowly. The second time I visit the place was the year 2015 and luckily it was September, not summertime so we enjoyed the beauty of the place. I was with my best friend and my daughter at that time. The 3rd time I was with my mom, my daughter, and my ex-American Boyfriend. The last time, I was with my ex-Fililipno boyfriend. We spent time together even if we had already broken up. Well, most of my exes turn out to be my friend after breaking up.
ISLA HAYAHAY BEACH RESORT AND RESTAURANT
It was my first to visiting this island called Pangangan Calape, Bohol. The place is also secluded. Perfect for people who want to enjoy and relax by the beach. I was with my ex-American Boyfriend and my daughter at that time. I like that island it's peaceful and quiet.
Been in this place for the first time around the year 2016. I was with my ex-American Boyfriend(Norman). We spent a couple of days in the resort. The resort is located in Valencia, Bohol. The water from the spring is cold and refreshing. They have two swimming pools available the other one is for adults and for kids. The adult pool is 10 ft dept.
Since Jagna town is just near Valencia, Norman and I decided to explore the place. We didn't have much time though since it was afternoon time so just visited the beach part of the place. Anyway, Jagna is the place where the Calamay originated. Calamay is a sticky dessert made of coconut milk, glutinous rice, and brown sugar, packaged in coconut shells sealed with red crepe paper. Calamay is one of the Bohol delicacies.
Dimiao also is a nearby town of Valencia, and we heard about the twin falls of the place so we visited the falls called Pahangog. The road going there is too adventurous. You have to follow a rocky trail and concrete stairs. When we visited the place it was just the two of us in the area. The falls are located in between the mountains.
I visited this place with my friends. The year 2017 when the first time I got the chance to explore the place. As a nature lover, I always love to see greens. We enjoyed taking pictures with the trees. We didn't get the chance to capture a perfect shot coz there are lots of vehicles passing by.
It is located in Carmen Bohol. The first time I visit there was when I was in Highschool. Since I still don't have a digital camera or phone with a camera at that time so I don't have images from that trip.
However, I got the chance to visit it again around the year 2014. I was with my ex-danish boyfriend, my mom, and my daughter. Glad that time I already have a phone with a camera so I got some photos from that trip.
Chocolate Hills Adventure Park(CHAP)
This place is located in Buenos Aires Carmen, Bohol. We got the chance to explore the "ANG PARU-PARO" BUTTERFLY GARDEN" We've seen the life cycle of a butterfly and how they live and what they eat or drink. We also get the chance to explore outdoor adventures such as THE RUSH BIKE ZIPLINE. It was my first time riding a bicycle that way. You don't need to balance all you need is to pedal so you will go through. Of course, if you are afraid of heights I think it's the best way to conquer your fears.
Still located in some parts of Carmen. La Victoria, Carmen, Bohol where the Hilltop 360 view park is located. I visited this place in the year 2018 with my daughter and my ex-live-in partner. We just enjoyed exploring the place and its view. There are some activities you can do there like horseback riding, camping/glamping, fish and pay. It's perfect for people who want to enjoy and relax with the beauty of nature.
This place is located in Sto Niño Balilihan,Bohol.It's just nearby from the place where we live now. It was the year 2019 when the first time I visited this place. I was with my best friend Fatima, my daughter, my brother and his girlfriend. To be honest, even if it's just part of my hometown but I seldom explore my own place. I didn't know this place exist until I saw some posts on Facebook.Lol.Anyway, after I got married, I got the chance to visit the place more often since my husband lives nearby this place.
