Batanes. So what they say is true.... Batanes does not look like our usual islands, even though it's part of our islands and homeland just more pristine, and well, breathtaking. Batanes beach. Reaching here, miles away from home.... Batanes seemed like another world, if you knew what 'another world' means - no phone calls, no deadlines, no texts; no honking, no cursing, no madly crossing the streets; no coffee shop chic or Wi-fi fix; no counting the hours, or rushing through crowds.... just being with ...

Right now,I'm justbeyond feeling,beyond pain. ... Continue Reading...
