Life itself is an adventure. It is meant to be discovered. If you don’t go out and see the world, you’re missing a lot.
This year, let your life be filled with experiences – big and small – they may be new, they may be replays. And why not start with our beautiful Batangas first?
This 30 days of Exploring Batangas challenge was first meant for those who have the luxury of time and money to go out and experience Batangas for one whole month. As in one adventure a day.
But then we realized that not all of us can devote a lot of time for trips even if the destinations are still within Batangas. So have the liberty to do the items in this list AT YOUR OWN PACE. Although labeled with “Day 1”, “Day 2”, and so on, that’s okay. Do one whenever you have time. And budget to spend.
Or, if you’re just up for a random discovery of the beautiful Batangas, you can pick any of these daily adventures and mark your calendars as you wish!
This is one exciting adventure you can try this summer.
