Swimming with the gentle giants in Oslob was an unforgettable experience! Seeing the whale sharks up close felt surreal and humbling. It’s something I used to only see in documentaries, and being there in real life made me appreciate nature even more. Make sure to follow the rules and respect the animals! A once-in-a-lifetime adventure that’s worth the early morning wake-up!

I didn't expect that Casaroro Falls was so beautiful that I had my jaw dropped after I saw it for the very first time. This Waterfall is so tall, pristine, and untouched. It is such a great view to witness. I think there was an entrance fee for the place, but I can no longer clearly. After entering the gate and the stairs to the bottom of the cliff, visitors will still need to trek for a couple of minutes before reaching this magnificent beauty. That's what makes the visit to Casaroro worth it; the rigorous and dangerous trek to it and the undeniable beauty of the Waterfall.

I think this church is quite special. It is a church that puts religious figures and secular figures together, and they are placed side by side. However, this church has a very long history and the locals also value it very much.

“(Save this so you don't lose it) Dumaguete is perhaps the ultimate lifehack for those who want to experience the real Philippines with a university atmosphere, waterfront, and access to diving, but without the crowds of tourists like El Nido and the capital's prices.”
