Summer is here, no doubt! The heat scorches; the sun burns. Elsewhere in the Philippines, I do not know. But here in Palawan? I would rather stay at home or in the office or in my friend's place. It is that hot I would also find myself agitated most of the time. That's why I seldom smile. That's why I'd rather walk alone or be alone. I can be infectious. And I don't want that to happen.
Nonetheless, I dream. I drift to the north of this spear-shaped island. I want to go to El Nido or Cuyo or Coron. I have been here for almost 2 years and unfortunately, I haven't seen those places yet because every time the team goes to those places, I am out of town, usually in Manila or somewhere. But I'd love to go those places. Not because I have been hearing good things about them, but it is because I simply want to experience traveling and exploring. I want to get lost and wander like a child. I want to feel nature at its best.
One day, I'd go to these places. And what better sight will it be when I have somebody else's palm on mine.
