I love traveling. I also love places where there are bodies of water. Aside from swimming pools and beaches, it gives me joy to explore areas where there are rivers and lakes.
You see, I grew up in the province and had my share of playing along brooks and catching small fishes with my hands. I also remember the times I accidentally dropped my belongings in the water and having a hard time drying them off.
A few weeks ago, I accepted a magazine assignment to write about San Pablo City's Seven Lakes (will post more updates when the article is already out). I found it really exciting to finally get to visit all seven because I've only been to three during my childhood despite growing up in the area.
