El Nido
October 2018
El Nido.
Finally.
The first time I heard of El Nido was in college, through a classmate who told us of her travel there with fellow students to check out the caves to gather bird's nest, and Mina birds. She mentioned trading a can of sardines for a mina bird with the locals.
Years later, El Nido becomes a bustling tourist spot, a must-see or must-visit on the list if you are headed to Palawan. In the last few years, I have been able to visit Palawan - Puerto Princesa (thrice), Coron (twice) and Ocam-ocam...but not El Nido. I would hear that it is another five hour land trip fro Puerto...a trip that needs to be planned well then.
GOODBYE, El Nido. We had a good time visiting.
