Batanes Travel Guide

Cagayan Valley

Boat-to-shore, the expedition to Mavulis (Y'Ami) Island is not for the faint hearted. This is the northernmost tip of the Philippines 🇵🇭. Any further and one will be crossing to Taiwan territory already. This island is uninhabited save for some soldiers who has a small detachment station there. Getting to the peak (719 feet) can be a bit challenging for people who are not used to steep trekking/climbing. But the view at the top is nothing short of breath taking! Singing "Lupang Hinirang" (the Philippine national anthem) while hoisting the Philippine flag was quite emotional. Proud to have been able to set foot on this island as not many have ventured here due to the island's extreme remoteness and challenging travel. #ItsMoreFunInThePhilippines #Adventure #trovember #Outdoors #hiddengems

I go through phases. Sometimes I feel like the person I'm supposed to be, and then somedays I turn into no one at all. There is both me and my silhouette. I hope that on the days you find me and all I am are darkened lines you still are willing to be near me. —Mary Kate Teske . .
