Suso Beach, Santa Maria, Ilocos Sur

The place is called Suso Beach because it is situated at barangay Suso of the municipality of Santa Maria, Ilocos Sur which is known for it's world heritage site the Our Lady of Assumption Church which is sometimes called the Santa Maria church. The beach sands were fine and brown but the picture at the top was taken around 10 am so it's almost white in color. And would you believe that this beach is located just along the highway? Yup! You heard me right..  Eventhough it was not our first time to be here I was still excited probably because I super love  beaches or probably because I haven't been to a beach for a long long while now or both. Because the last time we were here was a few years back around 2011 I guess and we just had a stop over, because we're going to Vigan. So right after Santa Maria is Narvacan which has some awesome beaches too, which is already near Vigan. So when we got to the beach...

VIGAN, ILOCOS SUR

Vigan City is the capital of the province of Ilocos Sur located at the northern part of Luzon which is around 400 kilometers away from Manila. It was recognized by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site. It is known for its Spanish Era ancestral houses. Calle Crisologo CALLE CRISOLOGO is the most famous and most visited attraction of Vigan, It is known for its streets lined with old,Spanish Era ancestral houses and cobble stoned streets.  From there ypu can buy different kinds of souvenirs and furnitures. It's amazing how they try to preserve these old houses, from the windows and floorings and those old massive hardwood doors are so ancient. It's like being warped to the old Spanish times. And to add up to that feeling you can take a Calesa ride and take a tour around Vigan. Calesa Ride Calle Crisologo at night Vigan Cathedral Just near Calle Crisologo is Vigan Cathedral, also known as St. Paul cathedral. Your v...

BALER

Baler is the provincial capital of Aurora known for its surfing and historical sites. When one hears Baler automatically what comes to their mind is surfing, but there's more to it than that. We were at Villasis, Pangasinan visiting my relatives when my uncle said, "Gusto niyo magpunta sa Baler?" When I heard him say Baler, first thing that comes to my mind is beach. I looovvve beach! But I know that the reason why he wants us to come with him to Baler is because he will visit his  wife that is having a vacation there with her relatives. So I immediately asked, "Pupunta ba tayo ng beach?" When he said yes, I immediately said "Cge, punta na tayo ngayon na". This is the view on the otherside road, infront of the falls. It was a biglaan trip so we really don't have any itinerary, we don't even know where we're going. The only thing that my tita said is that we are going to the Falls. So our first stop over i...
