2D/1N Trip to Quezon during Pahiyas Festival - Itinerary and Expenses

Part 3: Trip to Quezon Day 2 - Kamay ni Hesus & Colorful Pahiyas Festival in Lucban

The most awaited moment for me in Lucban has come.  Pahiyas festival has been one of the most favorite festivals been frequently visited held every 15th of May. 

Part2: Trip to Quezon Day 1 - Night Before Pahiyas Festival in Lucban

Pahiyas Festival is one of the famous festival in Quezon, to honor San Isidro Labrador.   It is the farmers' thanksgiving for a bountiful harvest with a grand display of colorful rice wafers, fruits, vegetables, and handicrafts adorning every house in the town. Check out WikiPilipinas for more info.  I was really curious and looking forward on what to see the night before the feast as they say that those who participated in house decorations for Pahiyas festival, are also putting lights for people to see.

Part1: Trip to Quezon Day 1 - Kwebang Lampas / Puting Buhangin aka Lukang Beach in Pagbilao

After getting high from the Panagbenga festival in Baguio (which is being held every February), I then tried to look out for another festival which fits my budget.  Wondering what's in Pahiyas festival, made me push this trip.  Unlike other festivals, Pahiyas in Lucban Quezon has a fixed date yearly - which is every 15th of May.  Luckily, May 15, 2011 is a Sunday so we didn't have problem on getting a vacation leave.

Camarines Norte: Pacific Kaos - Surfing and Skating Competition in October

This coming October, a grand surf  and skate competition is about to happen in Bicol Region.  For surf and skate addicts, here's your chance to show your talent now!  I've tried surfing and I totally love it so I highly support this one and hoping this to be a successful event.  Kudos to the people behind this for their love in their craft, an event that will gather great surfers and skaters around the country, and hopefully from other parts of the world.

NEWS ALERT!  I would like to inform everyone that this year's surfing and skating competition is cancelled.  This is too bad :(  I hope it will be a bigger event next year.

My 7 Links: The Happy Path

It's time for me to do the My 7 Links. Chic magnet Marky Ramone Go of Nomadic Experiences, chinese hottie Josh Uy of Intsik Boy, and mister-lucky-guy Chinchan of Juanderful Pinoy nominated me to do the 7 links of my most memorable posts. My 7 Links Project is initiated by the Tripbase to unite travel bloggers around the world  in a joint endeavor to share lessons learned and create a bank of long but not forgotten blog posts that deserve to see the light of day again.

I took a stop to post some backlogs and give way to reminisce some of my interesting posts.  I admit that I'm not a writer, but this blog started due to my motivation to help future travellers, as I felt I owe it during my early days of travelling, hence, it's payback time.

What's in my list?!
