Mt. Romelo adventure- Laguna, Philippines
............
Everything was so unexpected. I woke up dizzy and empty. And with few chats coming from my friends I ended up seeing myself trekking for almost 2 hours, overcoming some assaults and making some water splashes like a child.
Mt. Romelo is a gift for lonely and hurt adventurers. The falls it has can definitely washed away all your sorrows and can clean your anxious soul. At least that's all I have experienced first hand. But I know there's a lot more.
As I reflect for the entire trip, I made myself another set of rules pertaining especially for group trips.
To God be the Glory.
1 - Do your best not to be an extra baggage.
Adventures like this needs a great amount of passion and dedication. Walk fast, minimize your arte-ness, always think how your other travel mates are feeling and don't just always be felt sorry, give your all not to feel sorry for the inconvenience you might give them.
2 - Be a great help for others.
Aside from not being a source of inconvenience it is also beautiful that you can provide convenience. Both are different but very essential.
Be someone that can do a favor for others without being asked and without hoping for a payback.
In that way we can be more confident and can have a more wonderful relationship with our friends.
3 - Don't be an asshole/toxic to the environment and to the people depending on it.
The place you will be at is the place that will be your home temporarily. The way you treat it implies the way you do it with your own home.
Caring for the environment and the people are a great traits a person calling himself an adventurer should have and even for all the regular citizens out there.
Your garbage, your sewage and other trashes/toxics must be disposed properly. It also important that you watch and tell others to be responsible about their actions, of course always in a good way to maintain the group harmony.
4 - Enjoy!
With all the three things above, I believe you can really and genuinely be happy for the entireness of your trip, which must be your goal in every time you go.

Moreover, most of us are living in a very toxic city smokes. When we feel suffocated and clutched to the worse norm, we tend to have a defense mechanism of running away and eescaping. But as the world gets worse and the basics become more not so indulging, every time we get back, we will realize escaping doesn't really make sense.
As I said with my few blogs, never think that your travels are for escape but as a reward. You go for it with your burdens, and sorrows. And as you go, the weight must lessen and eventually should become your additional strength for more life battles adding with the new life perspective you gain with the places you will be at.
The world is so beautiful and so cruel at the same time. We can't side just for one. But where we focus more will tell us where we are going. In the future.
