Hi! I’m Luna.
The picture above was taken in Sison, Pangasinan, Philippines. I was on my way to Baguio from Clark Airport in Pampanga. The bus ride took around 4 to 5 hours.

It was a rainy day and the trip was quite long, so I thought the trip would be boring. But I was wrong! For two hours, I just kept watching the wide, green farmlands on both sides of the road. They were so beautiful that you wouldn’t even want to sleep!

This is just one of the photos I took in Sison, Pangasinan. If I ever get the chance to travel again, I’ll definitely visit this place. And if you ever have the chance, you should visit it too! It’s wonderful—the nature here is fresh and beautiful.

Hi! Ako si Luna.

Ang litrato sa ibabaw kay gikuha ¹kana sa Sison, Pangasinan, Philippines. Padolong ko ato sa Baguio, Benguit gikan sa Clark Airport sa Pampanga, ug ang biyahe sa bus kay mga 4 hangtod 5 ka oras.

Uwanon ug medyo taas kaayo biyahe , mao nang abi nako mahimong laay kini. Pero nasayop ko! Sulod sa duha ka oras, sige ra kog tan-aw sa lapad ug lunhaw nga mga uma sa duha ka kilid sa dalan. Nindot kaayo tan-awon, dili gyud ka ganahan matulog!

Kini usa ra sa mga litrato nga akong gi-take/gikuha sa Sison, Pangasinan. Kung makabiyahe ko’g balik, mobisita gyud ko dinhing lugara. Kung naa kay kahigayonan, bisitaha pud ni nga dapit! Nindot² kaayo, presko³ ug matahum ⁴ang kinaiyahan. ⁵¹

I’m a big fan of amazing designs. This photo was taken in SM City Cebu. It’s a section at their Food Court that really captured my attention. It’s simple, natural and very inviting. Whoever was the interior designer of this area is really talented! Nindot kaayo ang view! Both in the photo and in person, nindot jud sya.

If you are a foreigner and happens to visit Cebu, if you go to SM, you might want to lounge in this area. I hope it’s not yet transformed into something else by that time though. But even if they change it, I think they will pick and even better design. Bisita nya pod mo dira ha!
