Focus on your peace and let go of the need to prove your point to anyone. Accept being misunderstood. 🧘‍♂️ Protect your well-being.

Here I am, just witnessing this spectacle on the horizon at one of my favorite times of the day in my favorite place.

What is your mother mountain?
Ano nga bundok ang imo una nasaka?

My love for mountaineering took root in my home island of Romblon. I live being surrounded by rolling hills, rice fields, seas and seeing the intimidating peaks of Mount Guiting Guiting and Mount Payaopao at the distance is part of my daily life.

I started on a journey of exploration at a young age with Boy Scouting activities back in elementary and high school days that led me to conquer my first mountain, Mount Lagting's summit via the Ilauran Trail - the highest point in Romblon island with elevation of 444 meters above sea level.

Climbing Mt. Lagting, we spent hours navigating through an undisturbed trail filled with cogon grass and overgrown ferns. My legs were filled with scrapes and bruises which I wrapped around my neckerchief to protect from more scapes.

When we reached the summit, it was windy and foggy. When the fog had disappeared, the intimidating Mt. Guiting Guiting shown from the distance.

Gazing up at Mount Guiting Guiting, I knew that one day, I would stand atop its majestic peak. And so, my mountaineering journey and love for the outdoor began, fueled by the love and inspiration of my home island.
