Revisiting Bato Springs

Friday Midnight I receive a facebook message from My loving Aunt asking if i wanted to join them to Quezon - Specifically at Bato Springs. The past few weeks Facebook feeds a lot of pictures from friends who recently visited the place.  And Yes - It’s kind of an exciting experience and a great chance for me to revisit the place that I once love. 

For the past twelve years i visited Bato springs for roughly five times - the last time was wayback 2007, And I’m just as excited this time around as I was the first time. Over the years I've discovered there are generally two types of travelers - First are those who think life is too short to visit the same place twice and second are those who return to their favorite spots again and again. After over 15 years of travel, I’m definitely of the second type.

My Special thanks to my Aunt Siony for inviting me to visit Bato Springs.
