My First Ever Boracay Trip 2013

My family doesn't like to travel. Oh wait, no, just my father (who basically provides for us, so if he doesn't want to travel, we don't, since he gives us the kaching kaching). So we normally just stay home and do our usual routines which I get tired of most of the time. I think the only place my family and I have been to was in Tagaytay where we stayed in Days Hotel and spent 3 days swimming in the hotel pool and eating fast food which wasn't really nice since its no different here in the city.

I have been to places like Ilocos Norte, Ilocos Sur, Puerto Galera and Leyte which I went with either my church friends (pilgrimages) or my cousins. So basically, our family (my mother, father and 2 kuyas) does not go on trips together. I don't know if that's good or bad. hahaha

This summer of 2013, I was given an opportunity to go to the famous BORACAY thanks to my Godfather who is a priest and coincidentally an Italian. haha.
 that's him on my right tattooed hand.
 Being himself, has a lot of advantages. Syempre foreigner eh. He makes a lot of friends in different places because he is an itinerant and people tend to like him and his charisma.

 Anyway, he provided for our accommodations at fairways and bluewater boracay. He's friends with one of the owners of one of the villas in the said place. We stayed there for about 3 days and two nights. After that we went to Villa Lorenzo and stayed there for 1 night before going to the pier.

I had so much fun! To be honest, Jan (one of my closest friends) and I weren't able to fully appreciate the place. Maybe because we thought that we were only dreaming. The view is just too good to be true! I had to literally pinch myself to see if maybe I just fell asleep while searching pictures about bora in my laptop, but I WAS REALLY THERE! :))

Here are the pictures during our stay:

 this was at one of the Burger place in Boracay. I appreciate burgers now because of this place :))

Eucharistic celebration every night. (Perks of having a priest with you during a vacation)

The district dinner. This was free as well courtesy of Lorenzo's Italian friend who's the owner of The district.

Oh, nothing, just the most awesome place in Boracay. ahaha!

Before going to the pier. At Villa Lorenzo

Oh yes! I forgot to mention that I had allergies half our stay in Bora. I had to go to one of their clinics near "Da Mall". They injected me with this thing that I cannot remember. HAHA! My face was so swollen, but I didn't care! Well, I did but not as much as I usually do.

because Lorenzo thinks he owns "Villa LORENZO" ahahaha!

WOOOH!

The remarkable view from the infinity pool <3



Possibly one of the best days of my life ;) ahahahaha!
I miss Boracay and these fellas already. 

I SHALL RETURN BORACAY! WITH MY COLLEGE FRIENDS! hopefully ;)
