“DIFFERENT PLACES, NEW EXPERIENCES”
Every year, my family plans a trip to relax, take a break from work, and escape from reality after the deadline, Christmas break, and any other
time when we don't have stuff to do. All of the locations we visited are memorable and unique in their own way. Every park and beach I went gave me the impression
that I could talk about anything and find a solution to all my issues. I constantly have the feeling that even though my family wants to explore new things, I truly want to
go back to these places.
The first place that we visited is what they called The Walled City of Manila or Intramuros. I really love historical places for the reason that it feels
like it’s bringing to the old times I was impressed by everything the first time I visited. I don't know why, but when we entered the Fort Santiago and Rizal's Museum,
my eyes started to well up with tears. If the walls can talk, they can tell us what really happened way back the colonizer take place. The Armabel's Beach Resort in
Mariveles, Bataan, is the following stop. The journey to the beach is challenging because the sun is straight on my skin as you descend to the shore. I could feel the
sand beneath my feet as I walked. When I went through the hot sand, it seemed like I was stepping on a grill that was on fire. There were several shells mixed up with
the sand. Even though the one-day vacation was insufficient, it was enjoyable because I was with my family and friends. The Summer Capital of the Philippines, or
Baguio City, is the last and my favorite vacation destination. The chilly breeze is fresh. We engaged in a variety of activities, such as eating of the famous strawberry
taho, visiting parks like Mine's View and Burnham Park, stopping by the Baguio Church, and finally welcoming the New Year at the Melvin Jones Grandstand. With my
loved ones, I cherished the three days and two nights of vacation.
I was able to truly escape reality during these trips. Every time I reflect on the difficulties I overcame, I am reminded that I truly deserve some
time to spend with my loved ones and myself without worrying about anything else but every vacation. They play a really important role in my life, from city to province
destinations. These encounters really want me to stay at those locations, but I want to explore new places and have new, unique experiences.
