WATERFALL HIKE THE DAY BEFORE GRADUATION

six friends and i hiked this triple waterfall gem the day before graduation and it will be a memory i cherish forever!! highlights: - met the cutest pomeranian named kai who loved belly rubs - sat on a log and smoked with our feet in the water (fire water and air, youre literally becoming the elements) - we saw a rainbow which i think meant something - the sun was OUT - got pizza and ice cream after in this small in between town - the drive back home was fragrant with rain and we got to see a double rainbow!! lowlights: - drove through a massive butterfly zone and killed SO MANY BUTTERFLIES. butterfly massacre - wore the wrong shoes (sandals bc i forgot to swap shoes before) - almost lost my shoes in the waterfall - right thigh has been sore for days (i’m not sure what i did to it) - 3/7 of us remembered to bring water for this ~3 mile hike - had to scrub bathroom walls and pack up my room when i got home

When life humbles you, go for a hike (as a joiner).

Life’s been super life-ing hard lately. So I decided to just go for it and try my first hike. I joined a group of strangers at Mt. Batulao—my “mother mountain” here in my country, the Philippines. 🇵🇭 Sometimes the care and love you give doesn’t take root where you thought it would, but love still shows up in so many ways: in plants guiding your path, flowers, friendly dogs that greet you on to that scenic trail, a breeze of cold air, a view that’s totally new but somehow feels like home, and strangers-turned-friends who literally lend their hands to help you up and show you which rocks are safe to step on. The shared “bulalo“ meals. Our Filipino Laughter. The process was challenging but beautiful! Honestly, the peak wasn’t even the highlight for me during the trail. It was realizing that what you put out into the universe comes back in different forms and tenfolds, and my connection with nature reassure me that I still have a place in this world. 🤍 So, yes, take a hike. Nature finds its own ways to heal.
