I do a lot of road trips in the Philippines! I had my plan to leave the concrete jungle of the city of Manila and move to the real natural jungle of one of the most remote province of the Philippines. One time during the Covid peak pandemic, I relocated and moved in the Visayas region.
A lot of epic road trips in the Philippines, that made me so happy. It was not just about getting back into the water, but it was also because I was meeting new friends and divers and exploring new place I’ve never been to before in the Philippines. Aside from sightseeing and diving, I also did a bit of hiking to see some glorious waterfalls. Sometimes, when I fly my drone and see the stunning view of the sea, rice fields and the mountains, its always was such a sight to behold.
I am in awe of how beautiful my country is.
I am grateful for the understanding of family and friends back home about my decision to uproot myself and move to this remove province away from the city. I am determined to show that I can relocate wherever if I needed to with my laptop in tow and continue to manage my work online and earn money to support my lifestyle and my passions, and be where my heart seek inspirations from, to live near sea!
My dreams, ambitions, and passions are my driving forces. I am optimistic about the future! When you are equipped with all knowledge, skills and experience as a diver... and mission also, because I used to teach non-swimmers in the local communities of Southern Leyte to overcome their fear of the ocean. I am eager to reduce the number of non-swimmers in this population at the same time raise awareness about plastic trash and get them involved in ocean conservation.
I am so glad that I get to meet like-minded individuals who are so welcoming and curious about the things I do… I feel so connected hearing their stories and the tips I get from local divers in the community.
I am still so excited for what to come in the future! 𝗢𝗻𝗲 𝗺𝗶𝗻𝘂𝘁𝗲 𝗜'𝗺 𝗮 𝗽𝗮𝗿𝘁 𝗺𝗲𝗿𝗺𝗮𝗶𝗱, 𝗻𝗲𝘅𝘁 𝗶𝘀 𝗮 𝗳𝘂𝗹𝗹-𝗼𝗻 𝗷𝘂𝗻𝗴𝗹𝗲 𝗲𝘅𝗽𝗹𝗼𝗿𝗲𝗿! So many to see from coral reefs to lush tropical waterfalls here in Philippines... Just can’t stop jumping between sea and shore. Are you with me?
