Boljoon: More Reasons to Return

Image
8 and 9 June 2007. When editor Kristin Llerin asked me to write about Boljoon for the Cebu Yearbook, I asked, "Why ME?". I'd just written an article on it a few months before for the Lifestyle page (supposedly, it was what inspired the Yearbook editors to feature Boljoon in the yearbook), and I felt I had written all I had in me to write about Boljoon, after years of yearning for it. I'd explored all I wanted to. It was a closed book, as far as I was concerned. "Because you like to travel!" she said. Fine. It was MY Boljoon, after all, so I thought it might as well be me. When I got there on a Friday morning (the first weekend of the schoolyear, and I was already on another "vacation" :P) to interview some government officials, I discovered that there was an archeological dig going on in front of its historic church, and that there were actually still a couple of places I hadn't been to...which some of the locals hadn't even heard of, eit...

Agutaya Island, Cauayan, Negros Occidental

16-18 February 2007. It was supposed to be a field trip for a physical oceanography class I wasn't even enrolled in. So yes, I got on the boat and made the motions with the drogue and the GPS to map the currents. I had wanted to go to Danjugan Island ever since I read about it in a coffee table book in 2001. But instead of Danjugan, I got to stay in the precious little island across it, owned by the tito of one of my classmates. Imagine an island all to yourself--with its own kayak, great food, three adorable dachshunds, and sunrises and sunsets all throughout the year. The pictures, I think, speak better than I can.
