Lakwatserong Tsinelas


The holes were small and I have to fit in.  Warnings of slippery when wet has never been precise until I found myself walking (a normal and a duck walk), squatting, crawling and climbing the mud-covered floors with loose rocks and formations in a cave named Aglipay at the Province of Quirino.


In time for our eco-tourism adventures, the heavy downpour of rain became an uninvited guest. With the current situation, I even thought that this part of our itinerary will be cancelled. The show must go on, as they say. I have to admit I am not into outdoor activities that require too much physical strength but there are times that behind my qualms I surrender for the mere sake of adventure.  After all, I always preach “Life is short.”

Is there anyone familiar with the province of Quirino in the Philippines?  Aside from having been mandatorily memorized in school as one of the provinces in the Cagayan Valley Region, I had no insights of what to expect in this land-locked province.

Booked for a flight from Manila to Cauayan, Isabela, I together with Aaron, Mica, Christian, Erwin, Edgar, Ferdz, Marky, Izah, Kara, Sinjin and Eric will serve as the Quirino explorers in this sojourn.  I was the last one to arrive at the airport, a few seconds before the check-in counter closed. (my apologies friends!)

Five hundred twenty five thousand six hundred minutes
How do you measure, measure a year?

In daylights, in sunsets
In midnights, in cups of coffee
In inches, in miles, in laughter, in strife
In five hundred twenty five thousand six hundred minutes
How do you measure, a year in the life?

The year has just ended.  To say that my travel life on the year that was is a blast is an understatement.  For a quarter of the year, I was visible on the road, outside the confines of the space that I was accustomed to.  A year in the life of a semi-vagabond, can it really be measured?
