They say, "travel as much as you want while you still got the time". With that, I truly believe with that one. Younger years should be nourished and filled in with wonderful memories that will forever the heart.
With that being said, let me share to everyone my away from the city trip. Introducing to all of you here is the Campoquino Beach at Sipalay City, Negros Occidental.
Located at the southern part of the province, this beach is well known and is one of the tourist attractions. With its clear water beach, plentiful house cottages, beautiful location and affordable rates. It invites tourists and wanderers from other cities to take a vacation here and enjoy the breeze of fresh winds and sea breeze.
Therefore, me and my friends decided to make time and to take a little break from the stressful reality we have in life. Took a ride from the city for almost 4 hours to reach this destination where our adventure awaits. We brought a lot of foods that could sustain us for 2 nights and 3 days and we're amaze that we have enough.
Arriving at around 2PM, first thing that we did is finding the suitable cottage for us 5. And yes, we got a wider one. We settled for it and prepared everything, rested a little bit an d took some group picture as remembrance. As a first time tourist there, you can't help but to admire the beauty of the place the vibe that it have.
We took a few moments to eat first and took a swim when suddenly the rain had occurred. Well, that was unexpected but okay moving on with it. So we did cover our things and made sure everything is all set before going back to swim at the beach under the rain. After then, we took rest and let the rest of the afternoon hours to standby. Night falls and we prepared our dinner and everything we need.
Luckily, we have enough foods to share and that made our first dinner away from our homes a memorable one. We have Fried Fish, Pork Slices, Chicken Adobo and fruits. Of course, liquors should be there to complete the trip.
So it was a long night and we have consumed a lot of our time talking about our personal problems, life perspective, plans, and everything that bothers us. This is one good thing about travelling. You'll really feel the essence of letting go of the things that hinders your mind and bothers your heart. With friends, you'll learn on how to deal with those things since everyone will be sharing their insights and the exchanging of it will occur.
After our drinking session which lasted almost 6 hours, we decided to go to sleep. Since it's still raining, the cold is one thing and it's good that we have blankets for each and everyone. There, we also enjoyed the view of the sea at night time. The calmness of the sea, the peace and quiet is really heartwarming and mind relaxing.
Then from there, we ended our day and shut our eyes for a rest.
The next day, the same routine are made. Prepared foods for the 3 eating sessions, clothes needed for whatever things we'll be doing and gadgets for taking pictures. Since the previous day is rainy, we took the second day for taking of pictures and everything else that we wanna do. We grabbed our swimming attires and our best outfit of the day for photography. Just love to see all of us in our best attires and having to enjoy the day with our life.
Then there it goes, we rested and ate and repeat the cycle. Due to tiredness, yeah we took the afternoon to sleep until night since we'll be having our second night liquor drinking. But I explored the island while they're asleep cause I just want to. By then, I discovered that there was a nice spot above the island so I took a picture there. The view of the entire island and the calmness there is one I thing I loved and made me realized a lot of things.
So after that, we continued on the practices and preparations we're doing since day 1. After that day, we bid farewell to the place as we will be going home. Yes! The experience is great and one to remember. We enjoyed, we learned from what we have shared to one another. Everyone is tired and is excited to lay down on their beds upon arrival. We thank God as well for keeping us safe since day 1 until we've come home.
So this is for my experience in my travel out of town. I hope you like it and I really appreciate your time in reading this. Hoping as well that you've enjoyed reading this one. Thank you so much and God bless!
