Sharing with you the beauty of Lakawon Island on our short day trip.

Lakawon Island, Cadiz, Negros Occidental

As summer has been hot and passing by fast, so is my workload on fire and piling up. Who would want to let the best season of the year (well, for me) slip by without going to the beach and get tan? I would never. So after a month long of waiting to push through another travel just because I need a break, here, I am.

It was only a day trip but worth every penny you spend on the island. It is also best experienced with family and group of friends.

Wherever you are, and whatever industry and position you are in always find a way to reward yourself with all the hard work that you do in simple ways you can and with the people you choose to spend it with.

Give your heart, mind, body, and soul a time to recharge. Go back to a hobby you missed doing. Or go to a place you’ve been wanting to explore. Or meet the people you got disconnected with. Or simply, give a time for yourself. Do it.

And if you’re like me who’s been in a soul search for quite some time, traveling is my therapy – no, actually the beach is.

We haven’t done much on our day other than taking good photos of the place, unwind and eat good food at their floating bar.

And this small pump boat took us to the bar.

Just literally sit and chill. How else do you want to spend the hot afternoon than to get some shade and drink cold drinks?

“Tawhai” in English means relaxed. And this bar gave justice to its name.

And with this view, I will not move my feet (nor but) an inch. They have a few activities that we haven’t tried since we were there to relax.

For some, travelling is a cliché thing to do to get away and have a break from your daily routine or personal problems. But seriously going somewhere far and literally “getting away” sets your mind in place and let you breathe. Whatever works for you as long as you take small breaks in life before life gets you. There’s no right or wrong in doing so. Life is not all about work, and it’s not wrong if you work hard for something and someone. We all are breathing for a reason, don’t let the world eat you up. There more to life than the weight of your problems or work. And life is not all about being happy but finding peace in all circumstance and contentment.
