I am pretty much fed up with the metro life. My life mostly circled work and apartment, riding jeepneys and UV Express in most days. It is just too much. Life has so much more to it than traffic jams.
For starters, I have come up with these travel bucket-list. To my amazement, I have made it to 80 (almost 100), mostly from travel bloggers/vloggers who experienced it first hand.
The Philippines offers an endless array of bucket-list-worthy places with over 7,000 islands to choose from. Every corner is a hidden gem which awaits discovery.
