6 Things 2017 Taught Me

   Never lose hope. At some point in our lives, we will want to give up on everything. Adulting, love, work, everything. And when it does come, NEVER, again, NEVER give in to it. Life is never over until it’s over. And if you could just believe: something or someone somewhere will show you that losing hope was never really an option.          The world is bigger than you have ever imagined. I, for one, can’t really grasp how vast my world is, literally and figuratively. But this year, I have learned that each of us has their own little world waiting to be explored. Our perception of the world is relative. I may see a vast ocean full of adventures while others see a boring blue sea. And it will only be up to you to really know how big your world is.        Sometimes, you just need to stop, breathe, and think. Humans grow tired. No one in an exception. When everything seems to be chaotic and tiring, Stop. Breathe and gather yourself. Let all the emotion you have

I Found Love in Sagada

Exactly 1 year after my second Sagada trip, I finally had the chance to write a blog post about it. (GOOD JOB, GELO! HAHA) At first, I really wanted to go to Sagada just because of the movie "That thing called Tadhana". Nagmu-move-on kasi talaga ako non. My first trip to Sagada was for work. A project really close to my heart. (Please see Mj Hernandez' blogpost for this). When I finally had the chance to go to Sagada for pleasure, I am neither heart-broken or moving on. But despite the fact that I do not fall into any of those stereotypical categories of the people who usually go to Sagada, I was still captivated by the magic it possess. So, I am sharing with you, 6 Reasons why I love Sagada. 1. The Romantically Heartbreaking Feel Sagada gives off a very romantic feel, yet, ironically, it's heart-breaking as well.

Hi! I'm Gelo, and I am Back!

Matagal akong tumigil sa pagsulat. Nadivert kasi yung attention ko sa mga ibang bagay katulad ng trabaho, dragon boat, at kung ano-ano pa. Pero, alam niyo, dumadating pa din sa puntong gusto ko magsulat. Siguro, totoo nga yung kasabihang, you will always go back to what you love. Nung umpisa, nagagawa ko yun sa journal ko. (Naks, may journal!) Pero parang hindi nga siya journal eh, mas diary ang datingan niya. Diary ng lahat ng nararamdaman ko. (sa lalaki. HAHAHAHA) Writing has been an escape for me. And this time, I wanna share it with you. Yes! Babalik na ako sa pagsulat. I will go back to one of the things I love. And going to do my best in doing it. (Hanudaw? Hahahaha) Basta, I will share with you all the memories I have that I believe is worth sharing. So as an aspiring social media influencer, please follow me and get to know me thru my travels, food, and my coffee. This is me, Gelo, and join me in my unpremeditated life.
