A cousin of mine married someone from the place so they settled in this place known as the cleanest city in the Philippines, Puerto Princesa Palawan. See the #ByaheNgKokobears Palawan Adventure overview here. I have been curious about the world renowned Underground River and just last year (2015) December I had my personal experience of this enchanting place!

5 Basic Things to prepare when you go Canyoneering
This latest fad in Southern Cebu has been on the bucketlist for many. So I am sharing you what are the 5 basic things to preparing when you go Canyoneering. 1. Your mind and the adventurer in you. As I have given you a spoiler a while ago… you have to be prepared and have the mind-set of an adventurer (especially those who are not). The trek will require you most of the time to jump a variation of heights (falls). There will also be a lot of rock scrambling/climbing. Sharing it here for you to be mentally ready. 2. Light breakfast It is needed for the energy to use…
