Blogs that inspired me to travel

So here are the list and in no particular order.

Saggas.net - Dito nag-simula ang lahat, mula nang makita ko ang larawan Bomod-ok Falls, sinabi ko sa aking sarili na kailangan kong makapunta ng Sagada. Search dito, Search doon kung saan-saang website ako napadpad at narating ngunit kulang pa rin ako sa impormasyon. Sa aking kaka-google matagpuan ko ang blog na ito, Sagadagenuineguidesassociation,blogspot.com pa ang name pangalan ng kanilang blog ng aking natagpuan. Meron sila Chatroom kung saan pwede mong itanong ang iyong katanungang may kaugnayan sa Sagada.

Sa aking paglagi sa blog na ito marami rin akong nakilala Si Ann ng Ann-d-explorer.blogspot.com, Darwin of Trackingtreasure.net, Imjee of myjourney.blogspot.com, Sir wencel ng Biyahengpinoy.blogspot.com at marami pang iba. Paminsan-minsan makikita nyo akong nakatambay sa chatroom nila.

 

Thetravellingdork.com - Isa sa mga blog na lagi kong dinadalaw pag naghahanap ako ng impormasyon sa aking susunod na destinasyon. Kumpleto, detalyado , wala ka nang hahanapin pang iba. at very creative lalo na yung drawings sa kanyang portfolio.

Ann-d-explorer.blogspot.com - Ang Blog na nagtulak sakin na subukang i-celebrate ang aking Kaarawan sa malayong lugar, malayo sa bahay, kaibigan etc. etc.......

Iilan lamang sila sa marami blogs na aking nabisita na nakatulong saking paglalakbay, ngunit kulang ang espasyo at oras kung ilalagay kong lahat.

Birthday Getaway Series (Vigan) Part 1

       3 weeks before my Birthday I decided to spend that special day a little bit different than usual. No parties, no inuman sessions etc. etc.. yeah you guessed it right, I decided to spend my birthday away from the comforts of our home. I found myself sleeping inside Florida sleeper bus heading towards Ilocos region.
