Coming Over and Over Again to Paradise!
After my first visit in Paradise last December 2010. I have always wanted to come and visit the place over and over again. The shells on its white sand shore is putting me into a state of nostalgia.
A longing of my youthful excitement to be on the beach and feel the breeze of the blue water. Seeing a floating driftwood is like seeing my self in the escape of stress-free life. A life I deserve after a long week of work in the city.
Starfish like this will prove you that Paradise is really a place of relaxation. You'll be kid-like as you catch one, reminiscing your childhood with no worry of tomorrow.
Seeing Vinta, a traditional boal in Zamboanga is another factor you should enjoy and experience Paradise.
Visit Paradise now. Just like me, I'l celebrate my birthday here on the next 4 days.
