My initial plan for my year-end solo escapade was to visit Buntod Reef Marine Sanctuary in Masbate but, due to some confidential reasons which I've decided not to mention here on my blog, I ended up climbing Mount Sembrano with stranger backpackers. Yup, with strangers again - this time with sixteen strangers I first "met" on Facebook.

I'll have a detailed blog of our climb soon so, for now, enjoy some of our photos below (I'm still waiting for other photos to be uploaded by my new found traveler friends):
 |
| Our mode of transportation from Shaw to Barangay Malaya, Pililla, Rizal. Fare: Php120/head. |
 |
| Registration at Ynares Multi-purpose Building at Barangay Malaya. Registration fee: Php20.00 |
 |
| We're all set. After a short prayer, our climb has officially commenced. |
 |
| Yours truly. Smile. Every day is precious. |
