Since I stumbled upon Patty Laurel's blog in 2010, I got the inspiration to travel across the globe. Her goal is to match her current age with the number of countries she visited and now, at 31, Patty has traveled to 34 countries. Wow! Just wow! Because of her I've also started to dream of going places. Even setting pessimism aside, it would really be quite impossible for me to do that. So instead of continually disappointing myself, I thought of other things to match mine. :) If I'm not mistaken, there are 82 provinces in the Philippines. How about exploring our very own country? :) Looking back I've been to 20 provinces in my 21 years, as of my last count. Not bad though. At least I won't stress over a large number, right? I can still cope! Hahaha! This is just for the sake of having something to look forward to everyday because when I'm down, the thought of going to different places always gives me the motivation to continue to live my life—the only motivation I have. That's why I love instagram coz it only takes me few taps to get into virtual discovery! I just feel the need to set my own goals. :)
Here are excerpts from each of our trip for the past years. Looking forward to more adventures this 2015! :)
