"In every walk with nature, one received far more than he seeks".
-John Muir
Being with nature can engender different emotions that are beneficial to human beings like; stillness, facilitating meditation, and pleasure. Exposure to it will also help people to be physically and mentally well. The goodness in it is, free to all.
We are residing in the Northern part of Cebu. Our barangay (local dialect) Caduawan, Tabogon, Cebu is not that famous before but because of our Little Batanes (it looks like the Batanes in Luzon), a little mountain, our place became a popular little bit. Due to its splendid beauty, our place is usually visited by many people.
The weather was fine. We were thrilled to visit the entrancing scene in our locale. It takes 40-50 minutes to walk in reaching our destination. We preferred to trek because of the joyance to see the inner peace of nature. We didn’t feel exhausted due to the serenity of the milieu. I can say that this place is perfect for relaxation.

Agriculture is one of the sources of living here. The vast field was planted with sugarcane, corn, and coconuts. People dwelling here are contented and happy in their lives. There is no hunger strike since they can cultivate the land they owned. Everything that surrounds is green and green means life.

from my child's photos
We enjoyed everything here far from pollution, there is an everlasting peace with nature, and the breeze of the air is so cool and refreshing. When the sun settled down, its long shadow was about to kiss the ground. It was so amazing to have seen its marvelous slanting rays give an astonishing orange touch to the sky.

What an incredible view of nature! Stress was released. The disappearance of the sun was replaced with fog that started to embrace the ground. You can feel the coldness that is all-natural. How beautiful our little paradise is.

Campers from other towns love to spend their entire night witnessing the enchanting view of the surrounding at night time. I have seen their eagerness in climbing with bags fully packed. The area is solemn and perfect for bonding.

Walking toward the place is beneficial to our health, it releases sweat, burns calories, reduces stress, bond with family and friends, can talk while walking, and breathes the fresh is that is soothing and relaxing.
A short journey, full of great adventure that is worth sharing. This will keep us physically and emotionally fit. The goodness of our Little Batanes is limitless. The most-visited wonderland in our place where you can spend your time solely with nature.
Thank you for your time dear Hivers! Keep safe and God bless!
