I celebrated my 24th birthday last August 9 in El Nido, Palawan. Very nice and magical place. Since this is my first birthday without my parents beside me. I tag along my mentor, Endette in my little getaway. This is the place I definitely will come back. Enjoy the pictures! 

Good morning El Nido!

My favorite travel quotes worth reading…

“He who does not travel does not know the value of men. – Moorish proverb

Travel is the only thing you buy that makes you richer.

Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the ones you did. So throw off the bowlines, sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover. -Mark Twain

Life is a daring adventure, or nothing. -Helen Keller

The world is a book and those who do not travel read only one page. -St. Augustine

There are no strangers, only friends you have not met yet. -William Butler Yeats

A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. -Lao-tzu

To travel is to discover that everyone is wrong about other countries. -Aldous Huxley

A traveler without knowledge is a bird without wings. - Sa’di

Travel is to spread your life all over the world. -Taxi Drive Wisdom

Tourists don’t know where they’ve been, travelers don’t know where they’re going. -Theroux

If you don’t know where you are going, you will wind up somewhere else. -Yogi Berra

Experience is not what happens to you; it’s what you do with what happens to you. -Aldous Huxley
