Wild Life | The Monitor Lizard

When you live in a regional area, there is a chance you might encounter things you do not see in a densely populated location. In Australia, poisonous snakes, spiders, and other types of unexpected creepy crawlies are relatively common. Ever encounter a Black Widow? I recall that while we were working on a car that was lifted during the training course at TAFE, there was an actual widow, and our instructor immediately grabbed an insect spray to ensure it was dead and then smashed it with his shoes.

This morning, before heading to a supply run in Baganga, a random thing happened. The workers reorganizing the backyard where the pile of lumber had been sitting for quite a while found something big. Locally, it is called a “Bayawak,” or a type of Monitor Lizard has been living other that pile of wood.

Road Trip: Los Baños | ELBIKON Culture

02.17.2020 – Last month prior to this Saturday I was invited to go on a road trip with good friends since I haven’t been out of densely populated city of Metro Manila. The last time I really went on a long drive was in April 2018 with fellow TAFE colleagues from the automotive class, which was quite an experience bonding with them.

This time around I wasn’t even sure if I could make it due to the random schedule that I have that an on job call might happen. The commitment was not even 100% though I kept it in the back of my head if I got nothing to do on a weekend, since my brother and his family has left last Wednesday it would be best to spend time out of town without any concrete plans of even covering the event.

Road Trip Nowhere | Port Germain & Beyond

04.24.2018 – The day after staying at Skytrek and Willow Springs Station it was fairly like how you try to get u in the morning. I’ve been up since 6 AM. It was cold hardly my young ward I roomed at his tent had difficulty trying to get some sleep. There were some good stories last night and the hilarious ones at my expense.

First time campers for these group was a bit of fun not that I didn’t enjoy it, but it was the experience in-between the narrative that surely was a pleasant look at the individuals how getting to know them was an experience in this entire trip.

You can surely find it interesting how things unfold when we went to the next destination of this road trip.

Road Trip Nowhere | Rough Road to Willow Springs

04.23.2018 – Camping is South Australia’s past time that also includes boating and fishing for the reason there’s even a store named after these three activities (namely BCF), which has been the reason why Aussies continue to cultivated this as a hobby.

But if you have immigrants particularly Asians taking the deep dive into camping expect hilarious scenes aching to American reality shows with that kind of flavour,

This gives you a good story and idea to share and new adventures told in a quite entertaining perspective by someone who is the only English speaking individual namely me.
