10 photo round up of what I saw/did these last 2 weeks.
Hope you all enjoy them.
WEEK 87
My 1st day in Boracay was spent on this beach away from the main beach. We had to take a small boat to it that could have easily sunk because the waves were huge & the entire time water was coming in to the boat, but the old man was pouring the water out with a plastic bottle. Anyway it was stunning.
My 1st sunset in Boracay. The sunsets here are some of the best I have ever seen in my life.
Yet another amazing sunset in Boracay. I love how tiny the people look with the palm trees towering over them.
White Sand Beach, Boracay. This photo doesn’t do this beach justice… the sand here is so white it’s unreal. The water is so clear and calm and shallow, it’s hands down one of the best beaches I have ever visited.
Another day in Boracay another amazing sunset. Ahh I love sunsets so fucking much.
WEEK 88
One of the restaurants in Boracay. I just think it’s so random, but kinda like it. I didn’t eat there, but think it’s perfect since the elections are around the corner.
I loved that in the middle of the beach in Boracay this statue of the Virgin Mary is just sitting there on a rock. I’ve seen religion everywhere, but think this is the 1st time I have seen it at the beach. I thought it made a beautiful photo.
Words honestly can’t describe what I saw in El Nido and no photo can do it justice. This place is magical and unlike anything I have ever seen. These rocks just cut out of the ocean up to the sky and leave a majestic scenery for you to see no matter where you are looking at. I did two tours while I was here and can’t wait to write all about it. This is the entrance to a small lagoon hidden behind these rocks.
One of the beaches we had our lunch at. Just when I think I have seen it all and the most amazing beach in the world I see an even better one. I mean look at that water… look at the rocks behind it… just look. I mean it’s fucking unbelievable.
Then to end it all… at the end of our 2nd & last tour we are asked to climb this rock and this was the view. I mean I really can’t describe and am not going to enve try. Just look at this photo and get lost at natures beauty. El Nido is hands down one of the most amazing places on Earth that everyone should visit.

Thanks GG, yeah I love #3 too!!! I love the size of everything.
These photos are gorgeous! The Philippines have been on my list for awhile, but this is pushing it closer to the top. I’m not one to laze at the beach for days, or even hours, at a time, but I do love beaches. Maybe I could find a nice big umbrella to sit under so I won’t get quite so hot. I love these photos!
