#legazpi

June 17-19, 2022 - After more than two years of not experiencing life out of the Metro, I could finally say that I am able to travel again! Believe me when I say I couldn’t help but get emotional the moment I entered the airport’s scanner, when we lined up for check-in, and when the aircraft’s landing gears touched down at the airport of our arrival point. It was a weekend getaway my best friend and I longed for. 

We took the second earliest flight to Legazpi to maximize our stay.

It was our first time traveling out of town together!

Aerial view of what we believe is Mount Masaraga.

Mayon Volcano greeting us as we landed.

Our room in Your Brother’s House Tribal Village. Not bad for our two-night stay.

Lovely view of Mayon Volcano from our accommodation

Bicol eats: Had to try 1st Colonial Grill’s Sili Ice Cream and Bicol Express!

Felt so good to survive our first  ATV experience with flying colors! Our tour guide was very observant and kind enough to commend us for our driving skills.

Meet our very efficient tour guide, Teng Perez of Your Brother Mayon ATV Tour. He knows all the good spots to take photos and we are amazed by his humor. Not to mention that most of our photos were taken by him.

A local, Jeremy, volunteered to take pictures of us and also did some random ones including this. I am speechless!

Always with our boys!

Bicol eats: Last dinner before we left LGP -- Turo-turo! 

Mayon was very friendly to us during our stay. Thank you very much for the memories I will surely treasure forever, Legazpi. I can’t wait to be back!
