If there’s something that you want to do or accomplish in life, take a leap of faith and do it. Don’t let fear deter you from chasing your dreams. Failing is 20x better than never trying at all. When I tell people that I want to build a career based on traveling and sharing my experiences with others they look at me like I’m crazy, but guess what crazy girl is still going to chase that dream? 😝#motivationmonday
Ever since I left the Philippines there’s not a single day that I don’t think about it. I’ve been to some awesome places, but the Philippines really might take the cake, here’s why: ——— 1. The food, drinks and accommodations are dirt cheap! You could stay in a decent hotel for as little as $12 per night, especially if you book with @Agoda. I had three grilled chicken wings and a huge red snapper with a coke for dinner one night and guess how much it cost? $7! 2. The people are super friendly! Everyone wants to talk to you and get to know more about what you’re doing and where you’re from. You never feel like an outcast because the locals make you feel right at home. 3. The beaches are unbelievable. Water is the perfect temperature and the weather is hot nearly year round. 4. You’ll never really run out of things to do. Between excursions, empty beaches, mountains and waterfalls you can always find something to get into. Even if you just feel like chillin, depending on what city you’re in, there are plenty of restaurants and bars you can check out. ——- If the Philippines isn’t on your list, take my word and add it. If you need some advice or motivation on ways to get started with planning, check out the link in my bio!
This is what excessive amounts of bourbon looks like, but hey what doesn’t kill me will only make me stronger.
I don’t know if another completely unexpected photo shoot will ever top this one. I liiiive for random good times on vacation. I had no idea that I would have this type of amazing experience at Kanto Lampo. —- Pictures are so important to me because they capture moments that words can’t always do the justice of explaining. Pictures allow me to look back and feel exactly what I felt in these moments. And when I’m old, I’ll have these pictures to show my nieces and nephews of how their old auntie was living it up! #motivationmonday
