๐ŸCebu Travelogue๏ฝœA True Healing Daily Life with the Philippine Sea

#Overseas travel #Cebu Day 1: Arrival in Mactan & Resort check-in Arrived at Cebu Mactan Airport after taking an early morning flight. I was a little tired, but as soon as I left the airport, I could feel the heat and the scent of coconuts, and I was already in the mood for a trip! I used the airport pick-up service to arrive at The Leaf Mactan Resort. It was clean and quiet, with a view of the ocean right in front of me! As soon as I unpacked, I sat on the balcony and had a cup of coffee while feeling the ocean breeze. This is true healing. Day 2: Jollibee & Cove Restaurant, and the ocean For breakfast, I simply had a Filipino national breakfast set at Jollibee. It was a sweet and salty taste that was addictive! It really gave me a local feel. For lunch, I headed to Cove Seafood Restaurant, a famous restaurant in Mactan. Fresh seafood right in front of the beachโ€ฆ Especially the grilled shrimp and garlic butter crab are so delicious that I canโ€™t stop drooling when I think about them. In the evening, I had a cocktail while watching the sunset at the resort pool. I still canโ€™t forget the view of the sky turning pink. Day 3: Hopping Tour โ€“ A Day on the Sea This day was the hopping tour I had been looking forward to! I went snorkeling at Nakpalingan Island, which I visited for the first time, and the corals and fish that spread out before my eyesโ€ฆ It was so beautiful that I wondered if it was real. I had a simple BBQ set for lunch on the boat, but it tasted three times better when I ate it on the sea. I played in the water a lot, and after taking a nap on the sea, it couldnโ€™t have been better. Day 4: Exploring the night market & inhaling local snacks It suddenly started to rain like a squall in the afternoon, but Cebuโ€™s nights are a different kind of fun in themselves! Walking around the night market with an umbrella on a rainy day was romantic in its own way. Everything from the mango seasoning snacks sold on the street, to the chicken inasal, and the crispy fried food was delicious. When I returned to my accommodation, I had a small party atmosphere with snacks and local beer that I bought at a convenience store. Day 5: Last day, Regretful check-out On the last morning, before check-out, I took another walk along the beach near the resort. The calm sound of the ocean, warm sunlight, and sparkling sea. I took this view in my heart and regretfully walked to the airportโ€ฆ โธป Cebu was a much more relaxed and warm place than I thought, where I could feel โ€˜real restโ€™. Eat, play, restโ€ฆ Ranked #1 on the list of places I want to visit again! ๐Ÿ’™
