And so, another get away has passed during entire lenten season. It was a pause and nature trip though we need to reflect sometimes during lenten days that enabled Catholics to reflect on the life of Jesus Christ, and Christianity as a whole, more in the Philippines than not, was well served by this important religious remembrance likewise.

The heat is relative to where you live. In inner cities, the heat is immeasurably immense. Those who can afford it escape to cooler outskirts. And one does not have to have a private vehicle to join the bus beater to Ilocos. Ilocos Norte has buses with stations strategically located in Sampaloc and EDSA where one can simply board and sleep the night away, safe, and in air-conditioned style. And Ilocos Norte and Sur has a lot of tourist spot. Likely, you have to vent and search the hidden places of Ilocos and enjoy the scenic spot it has.

who will take you to scenic sights or historical places, and, along the way, savor the province’s specials of  'bagnet', 'sorbetes (local ice cream)' and or 'empanada'.
