As Filipinos we have heard time and again that if you have a mole on your foot, it means you're "layas" (loves going to different places). My mom has called me "layas" ever since I was a kid. Now, let's put being "layas" to good use by sharing with you my experiences and learnings on the different places I've visited.

Cagayan De Oro - White Water Rafting
Forward! 1, 2! 1, 2!
How can I not write about this thrilling experience we had in Cagayan De Oro? The highlight of our CDO trip is the White Water Rafting and Canopy Walk experience organized by the group of Rex Tapungot, Operations Manager of Red Rafts (www.raftingcdo.com).
It was a fantastic experience. From the levels 1 to 4 of rapids, the beautiful scenery which really makes you go WOW!, to the singing while paddling and the kulitan (friendly banters) in the raft... all these made our white water rafting adventure a really memorable one.
Red Rafts offers different packages. They have a package that includes lunch and a photo/ video coverage. I suggest that you take this. For one, they really take time out to prepare really good food. Our spread consisted of rice, chicken barbecue, steamed shrimps, fish and a bottle of coke. With 4 small, petite women, we actually finished a whole pot of rice! Can you believe that?!?! Second, the photo/ video package is something you should not miss. You would want a document of this fun experience. Rex stands in the middle of the rapids just to capture the expressions of everyone. He's great! Check out http://www.pbase.com/lysh/rafting for photos taken by Rex during our trip.
A bonus is the fun, professional staff that Red Rafts has. We were impressed by Rex' coordination with our group. He also has makulit and super fun crew members, Richard, Mau-mau and Poco! You should ask for them when you have your trip! :-) Oh, and Malou too who's training to be the first lady paddle guide.
