Selfie Siargao

After a brief stint in beautiful Siargao, a lot of people have been asking why I have weirdly placed tan in my arms and legs?  Well, this is the main reason for it and needless to say I overdid the im-a-cool-chick-i-do-the-peace-sign-everywhere gig... And got myself a bit of a headache twirling about but it's all worth it exploring this super chill and amazing island!

I was booked for a 3 days/2 nights stay in the island, and let me tell you if you do plan to travel to Siargao, 3 days is NOT enough. I left the good ol Metro at around 10 in the evening with a layover in Cebu. I planned to drop by and check some of their good cafes there since my Siargao flight was not until 6am the next day. But I skipped it, I opted to get some much needed shut eye to be ready for a whole day of exploration on my own. It has been a while since I was travelling to an unfamiliar place on my own. This was going to be an adventure no doubt! Upon my arrival to Siargao the next...
