Thank God, I came across “ANTILLA Thimble Charm Bracelet Paracord Rope in matte black”—a minimalist nautical bracelet from Fathom Bracelets that is designed for real ocean lovers, water element people, aquaphiles, or beach lovers. The story behind its creation and design did not only assure me that I will always be reminded but constantly connected with the water element. Fathom’s abstract idea of the sea and the ocean that is not literal but very hidden via this bracelet is simply GENIUS! From here on out, wherever I am or wherever I go, I feel an instant and exquisite connection to the ocean each time I look at this bracelet.

The perfect thing about Vigan is that visitors can check all the available tourist attractions within just a day via a scooter or tricycle. This alone can eat several hours of the time with numerous attractions scilicet the zoo where you can not only see but interact with some of the predatory and exotic animals; the Golden Tower (Chavit Singson’s abode) that’s radiating all the affluence of life; the greenery around which is already a great and independent treat; and the world-class museum of preserved exotic and familiar animals. It was lunchtime when we arrived at the garden which, by the way, is not really hidden but just nesting in the heart of the city along Katipunan St. and is well-known to and frequented by both locals and visitors alike. The higlight about the ultimate destination and most symbolic image of Vigan and Ilocos Sur as a whole, Calle Crisologo, will be showcased on a separate blog post.

! For the first time, I’ve found a place that’s picture-perfect. Unplanned dates are the best…and if coupled by an accidental discovery of a place that’s as praiseworthy as “Coffee Project”… Beyond the beautiful interiors, quiet corners, signature coffee blends, premium pastries, and warm service is the peculiar delight from that long talk facilitated by two of their cuppa jolt. If you happen to visit Naga City, don’t miss the chance to check the place and experience a picture-perfect moment.

I do some other things such as looking at the ceiling or to anything that’s visually appealing and connect what I’m feeling to it; engage a seatmate into a conversation (if it’s a friend of course); take ramdom snapshots of whatever I see worthy… While I was busy killing time and sipping my favorite drink, I noticed a gazillion different signature astigin porma (fashion statements/flair) of fellow OFWs coming in. The next time I’m in the same situation, I’ll see to it that I’ll take my hats off to them or do the same. The world will still revolve if I wear my jewelry made of Saudi gold, my Beats headphones, my Ray-Ban aviator sunnies, my Boho bracelets, or whatever fashion accessory the proverbial porma becomes.
