I welcomed the celebration of Christmas sadly in the office. This is never knew to me because in my previous 8-year old job, I used to celebrate the holiday season at work. I am just thankul that the next day after is my off. Though no sleep yet (my shift is 11:45pm - 8:45pm), in the morning as soon as I am done I rushed to Tagaytay to join my fellow blogger friends on a whole day road trip there.

I have to brave a 5-hour traffic from Manila to Tagaytay though it only takes 2 hours to get there. They already went ahead at around 8am in the morning. I feel pity that I was not able to join them checking out the a strings of houses in Tagaytay dubbed as Switzerland village. Nevertheless, I reached around 1pm and joined them in a cafe.
Around 10pm I reached home, slept until 10am the next morning and ate then slept again until 5pm. By 6pm I woke up and decided to go to Makati to hear mass at Greenbelt Chapel. Then by 9pm, took a bus back home and live blogging this.
This is how I celebrate Christmas... usually alone. I wanted to go home in Bicol to celebrate this wonderful day but I am not allowed to file a vacation leave yet. This makes me miss my freelance life way back but I know for sure that once I take this path again, I will be better the next time around. In between all these, I also devote my time answering inquiries about my online tours.
Just a few days and 2014 is over, I am grateful of this year though one mistake made me go back to the life I swore I will never go back again. All I ever wish this Christmas and New Year is love and travel.
I am searching for love to come my way and more travels for next year!
