My 2nd time in Baguio City !

2 years ago I went to Baguio alone and actually that was my first 1 trip travelling alone , that time I experienced a lot from that trip . I exposed my self to their different cultures, visited some underated places and also exploring the whole city . That moment I told my self that one day I will go back again and re-visit the place I went through and explore more baguio city.

Last February 2020 I spent my whole Valentines and weekends in Baguio City together with my whole family. I'm so glad because this time I'm not alone exploring this city. In this trip we focus more on the city proper of baguio and places where very famous to the tourist , very well known land marks and some of the places I haven't visited yet . Honestly this trip is way more chiller than my first one because our itenerary is way lesser than my first trip, we spent more of our time in our hotel which is nearer in the city proper  (particularly in Baguio Cathedral)

Even though this is my second time around visiting Baguio City I still amazed in this place and I still considering my self going and going back , re- visiting and discover more amazing places.

TIPS: Be careful to pick pockets around the town , make it sure you secure all of your valuable things . If you want to go to the other places quickly I highly suggest to ride a taxi instead they're price is sort of reasonable 🙂 and also way more convinient than riding a jeep . It's ok to ask to he locals about the direction of your destinantion but make it sure that you have your own guide as well like google maps , waze and other application.

How I found my own Style

    

I know it's very hard to each of everyone of us to find our own style . me it took me a lot of years , trials and errors and also more criticism untill I found my own style that suites me very well to my personality and own aesthetic . Before I always looking and copying on my favorite Kpop Idol groups style or look in Pinterest nor google on what is trend in the fashion . By the help of my favorite local fashion bloggers such as David Guison , Camille Co and Laureen Uy I realized and discovered on what style and fashion sense should I follow and apply to my self . Through looking in their blogs and Instagram post I figured out to my self that I wanted a colorful piece and kind a sleek style but still good and bright. After I found it tada! It becomes my own authenticity or trademarks.

My fashion is all about colorful outfit with the hint of street streestyle "HypeBae" and classic clothes , I do mix and match it with different pieces such a mid range clothes , high brands and either clothes that I bought only in thrift. through that experementing system my creativity will showed to my outfit and my own and personal style will comes out too.

Just Sharing my Thoughts !

I know how important of being unique in a certain things it makes you more confidence and built you authenticity . It's great that you found your own beauty and aesthetic in your own way and embrace everything that you have ,these aspects help you to grow more and push you to keep goin! In this era of social media the best way is to stay in your principle and believe in your self that you can do it and make it because sometimes social media can breaks you it gives you insecurities in a long run so to able defeat those and stop nurturing those negativity always remember that your different with them and don't ever compare yourself to other because you have your own version of your self and you have your own Journey :)

 

Continue and Keep going!

for the past few months A lot things happened to me and came to my life without any expectations .. there's a good things but there's a difficult sad . one of these is frustration it's very normal to us to dream the things that we want to happen in future and believe that someday it will happen  . It comes to my life that I'm very disappointed  to my self that result of frustration ... Why I'm very disappointed to my self ? because In the past few months I worked something that I really dreaming of for the longest time, but I haven't get this dreams and turns me very sad and asking my self about my capabilities. I know it's very shit asking your self about the things that you can do but if you know that you're suitable to the dreams that you want to be but you didn't get that it was very broke and feels it's not destined to you ..

but what I learned in this situation is never ever limit your self to the things where in your front already Instead grab it and take advantage those things because in the of the day Learning is limitless and sometimes it's free hahahha ! . Do your best by doing those because after that you realized that you have a lot things to be learned before you go to the place you want to be  . 

theirs a person that will come to your Peaceful Life! maybe he will help you to be happy and gives you hundreds of laughter or maybe he will give you a remarkable leaved that will hard to you to sleep every night . after all the sweet conversations and came to the point of Courting all of sudden the'res a situation that you didn't even expect that will happen however 'sometimes the destiny is so shit because it happen in the middle of Sweet Happiness  .

 I know he say sorry to you and your replying to his aplogize is " Ok lang I understand" but inside of your mind of heart it feels like It kills you softly. While he is leaving and your try to erase him in your mind and heart you are Left Brooke & Alone ..

So far I didn't know what to do but I think is the best thing is embrace all of those sadness and broke in your heart because it will help you to move on !

Baguio Trip

Since when I was Child I heard a lot good things about Baguio city they said aside of very cool Temperature there's a lot of good places that you must visit when you're going to Baguio City and also it's known as Strawberry city . But after dreaming for many years Finally I visited Baguio City for the very first time and I didn't expect everything that I saw because It reach all of my expectations in that city . aside from their well known landmarks ( Strawberry Farm , The old diplomat Hotel , burnham park ) I discovered a lot of places  not only has a good view also Instagramable.

While travelling in baguio I discovered a lot especially the place where really underrated and I found out baguio has a lot a places where very beautiful and I noticed the city proper is very civilized just like following the traffic rules, not like in the main city like manila . what I like in travelling baguio is all the famous landmark is near at the city. so if you're going to different places you must go first to their main city like session road , abnao square at sm baguio . actually the taxi their is very cheap but you can use jeepney if you want to save more money or your budget is tight . 

     

Anyways guys I have a whole Vlog in my Baguio Trip from day 1 to day 3 so you may visit my youtube channel "Mark Jamesss"  for the behind the scene for all of these photos and to know everything you need to know in this trip ( like where I'm staying , transfer of transportation , how I found these places , actual moment and many more ) you can also follow me on my Instagram account for more updates about me .
