Home in Motion: La Union-Baguio-Pangasinan Trip


Traveling in the company of those we love is home in motion. – Leigh Hunt

This is our first time to travel as a family. It is right after the homecoming of my husband that we decided to take the car and go on a trip above North. It was a long journey knowing I am carrying a 10 month old child without yaya and only our family who is with us through the journey.

We hit the road from Cavite in the wee hours of the morning so that we can reach our first destination, the province of La Union.  Nanay and Tatay wanted to visit some of their relatives there before going to Baguio. When we reached La Union, we weren’t able to meet their relatives because they were already abroad. Instead, we tour around the place and go to the nearest tourist destination that we can have our picture taken. And so here is the lighthouse around La Union.




After La Union Trip, we went to the city of pines, Baguio City. Well, the zigzag road going there made me feel ill. But when I see the breathtaking view of the strawberry farm in La Trinidad makes me well.  This is one of the first time got a taste of strawberry wine and she is so giggling happy about it.



We spend a night in a small inn in Baguio City near the Botanical Garden. We woke up very early in the morning and travel around the city. Just like any other tourist, we wear the traditional clothes together, we bike along burnham park and took a lot of pictures.

The next day, we tour around bencab museum and buy a lot of souvenir items including strawberry jams and wines.

We then decided to go to Pangasinan to visit another relatives of Nanay and Tatay. We were lost at first because Waze could not give us the right direction. But eventually, we reached our destination and had our good night sleep there. The next morning, we decided to go to Hundred Islands in Alaminos, Pangasinan. It was the first time for Sofia to see the beach.

It was late afternoon when we decided to go home back to Cavite. It was quite a long ride for all of us but it was fun and the memories that we can have are beautiful since we are with the people we love. Indeed, it is a home in motion.
