GUIDELINES: para sa bongga na trip na bonnga pud ug tipid..

Hello there!

Well, since I started out doing blog of my Epol Escapade, I think it would be great if I also include the basic question if in case you want to explore the place too.

I know you will ask this to me:

1. How to get there?
Ans: BUS RIDE:
  • meeting place: anywhere as long as everyone know the place. Terminal Ecoland (recommended meeting place)
  • bus route: Cagayan via Buda, you can ask the terminal's personnel there to help you locate the exact bus location. Aircon and Non-aircon bus is available any time during day. (don't have idea about the night schedule). hehehe
  • travel time: at least 2 or less than 2 hours time travel.
  • fare: Php100 for a one-way ticket.
2. How about resort fees?
Ans: We went to EPOL RESORT (don't know the other resort name.. hehehe)
  • house fee: Php50/head, a house which is good for at least 15 person
  • open cottage: Php100 (cottage near the falls)
  • tent: you can bring tent with you, no charge
  • entrance: Php5 for the first stop and Php10 for the main entrance (day tour), Php20 (overnight)
  • food: bring your own food, no corkage and definitely no store available.
3. What to bring?
Ans:
  • personal necesities
  • your "COLD BLOCKER" clothes (e.g. pyjama, very thick jacket and very thick socks)
  • knife (don't dare to forget it)
  • "lampara" (no electricity available)
  • kitchen utensils
  • money
  • digicam
That's it.. Just don't forget to bring the important things and you're all set up. Enjoy!! A very affordable outing perfect for a barkada or family getaway. Less than Php500, you'll enjoy the beauty of nature at its finest.

EPOL Escapade

Hi everyone!

Just want to share to you my latest 'lakwatsa' and the story behind it. Few of my office mates decide to go to Epol ( a place somewhere in Marilog which is famous because of its many falls and fantastic sceneries which you cannot see in downtown areas). At first Im so excited about it, they inform me a month before the actual day but my cousin got hospitalized and its not fair going somewhere else and have fun knowing that your cousin or love ones is in the hospital. So, i decided not to go and spend the whole weekend at the hospital but my cousin was release in ICU a day before the said trip, then i am thinking again to come with them. I've been in EPOL thrice but what makes it exciting is the people I am going to be with. This is the first time that I could go mountain climbing with my officemates and it sound sooo exciting. hahaha!!

I go with them and alas i didn't regret it at all since its a whole new experienced for me. I am slightly tired of going to beach already too so this is something new. The whole trip was very great but accept it we can't avoid accident since it is everywhere, yes, an accident happen but that doesn't stop us from having fun. hehehe!! I know you want to glance some of our photos there.. here are the pics.. enjoy!!

back to normal

oh my i miss my virtual diary.. haha anyway, its been a while since the last time i wrote something here, i can't even remember the date (t'was written in my last blog remember? on the upper side! hahaha) I have been very busy for this past few months that i don't even have time to write what i've been through for the past couple of months or so or sometimes im just being so lazy then.

To update, i encounter so much fun and also its opposite side. I love to write my experiences or sometimes it is good to write what you feel for self-evaluation afterwards. Sooooo many things happen lately and I want to write it in case I forgot all the details.

Well, i'll be back maybe tomorrow to start writing. I miss you my virtual diary.. heheh!! See ya..
