another lovely sight
As I prepare for my fourth trip to Coron(Busuanga) I find it refreshing to see the photos that I took the first time I saw the island few years back. During that time I was suffering from the pain of a personal loss and I was on the state of confusion- whether to stay in the country of my birth or go back to the country near to my heart |

which gladly adopted me, taught me wonderful lessons in life and gave me unforgetable and most enjoyable experiences or go to discover other places that I have never been. This trip has helped me realise that I can have a new lease of life and recover the happy face that I once had. A beach lover since birth, the sight of this beach has lingered to my heart and I rediscovered the simple joys of being |

in the waters and with friends. I have heard myself laughing as loudly as I had been as I frolicked in the sand and the waters as Beatriz lovingly and amusedly took photos while I am in my two piece swimming wear. I also took her photos and we promised each other not to show such photos to anyone except us- a promise still kept until this time.

happy friends forever
When I wanted to be away from it all again I took another trip- alone to Coron and I enjoyed the experience. I had a great time living like an islander and a tourist incognito for a week. I wrote a lot and took pictures some of which are still on my old laptop which never fails to give lots of smiles to my face. |

the sight of white sand and sea to behold
I am going back and forth to the hospital and clinics for my physical well-being and trying my best to recover from a traumatic experience from my previous travel when this invitation from Beatriz for this trip came. I was financially broke and my priority was my physical well being but they solved my predicament by using Edna's credit card so I did not refuse the chance. |

the breathtaking sight
Although they promised to take me to other islands where I never was, I would be glad to come back to my favourite Banol Beach where I started to dream dreams and laughed as boisterously as I can be after being abnormally quiet for a long time few years back. |

paradise on this side of the earth
And as I take a break from my hospital and clinic visits for this trip starting tomorrow, I am looking forward to another session of emotional and spiritual healing which I have always sought and found in this wonderful island. |
