We visited a remote part of  El Nido on a motorbike 28 kilometers from town center to get to a deserted beautiful beach. Such a shame, right? I forgot the name of this spot and I can't find it anywhere in my notes, neither on the internet. I was probably so excited at that time I forgot to write it down.

While renting a motorbike in  El Nido Town, we found out that a family-owned beach front B&B just opened its doors to tourists through a flyer with a map.  It was located further than Nacpan Beach.  As we crossed rice paddies and rolling hills whose steep slope almost sent us sliding back when our engine suddenly died, it was a fun experience having a beach lost to everyone and all to ourselves that day. With that, I'd like to post this unedited video on a motorbike to share with you the sights and sounds as though you are with us.

Remember that film L'Age de Raison where the little girl writes to her future self?   Think about receiving a letter from yourself 2 years down the line.  I bet it would be a great way to see whether we have achieved our goals we have set for ourselves. Perhaps those goals may have changed as well at that time to something beyond our expectations.  

How many of you have done it?  I just did. My last year self did. I have already forgotten about it so imagine my surprise a few days ago when I received an email. I read it and smiled all the way through. I realized that my concerns a year ago seems slightly trivial now. There were big questions that I have come to understand and accept that if they don't happen, they are not meant to be and I just have to move forward. 

Through uncertainties of the present, we have learned from our past that those seemingly embarrassing and humiliating moments will transform into stories of laughter in the future. Those difficult obstacles will become sources of strength.  Those forgotten dreams in our bucket list may be a part of our everyday already.      

A journal reminding ourselves how we were, how much we have changed, and how life evolves. A discovery of our real selves.  Plus, it's a lot of fun, don't you think? 

So how do we start this without time traveling?  

What should I write? After registering, here are some helpful hints:

1. Describe your present life and how you feel.
2. Your hopes and dreams for the near future.
3. Anything you're grateful for.
4. An important life event and life lesson.
5. How you see yourself in the future, physically, emotionally, health-wise, career-wise and etc.

Remember, it's a letter to your future You so write anything you feel like writing.  I am going to send another one. Enjoy :)
