Beautiful surf waves of La Union, Philippines!

Last weekend (January 26-28), me and my friends went to La Union to catch some waves. We decided to visit San Juan, La Union, one of the most liked destinations for surfing. The travel was about 5-7 hours and we left Manila at around 2am.

At 7 am of the 27th, we reached our destination. Oh man, the travel time was long but the view was worth it. As you can see, waves everywhere!!!

So after seeing the waves, hunger waved at us. Around the area, you would see a lot of locals and foreigners trying some local and international food. We tried eating at Tagpuan.

I wasn't surprised when I tasted their Chicken Adobo. It was one of the best Adobos I've tried since it has that "Ilokano" flavor. It was prepared in a bowl full of crispy garlic and tomatoes. Oh what a good morning that was.

Our La Union trip will not be complete without a slight sight seeing and picture taking in the famous Tangadan Falls. From San Juan, we rode a jeepney going to the falls, which took us an hour. Truly, the site was majestic and beautiful. You would have to hike for 10-15 minutes to see the beauty of this nature!

Now, on to our agenda. BEACH!!!!

None of us were surfers nor swimmers so we just stayed by the shore to listen to the sound of the waves. Isn't it ironic to go to a surfing spot and not surf? Lol. We tried taking some surfing lessons but I was too scared to do it so I just took photos:

What could be more rewarding after 5 days of hard work than a beach trip right? This trip would not be exciting without my jeje friends namely: Star, Venny, Vince and Kaye. They used to be my workmates but now they're more like a family to me.

I know this post has more face photos than views, I'll try harder next time. For now, I would like to appreciate the beauty of every trip that I spend with my friends. I believe that every view and trip is beautiful if you share it with the ones who makes you feel beautiful.

See yah on my next trip! ;)
