Life, as they say, throws curveballs. Our actual 8th wedding anniversary was spent supporting family, as my husband's father was in and out of the hospital. It was a challenging time, but family comes first, always. We postponed our celebration, promising ourselves a special trip when the time was right. That time finally came last October, and Boracay, with its famous beaches and breathtaking sunsets, beckoned.
The first half of 2024 had been a whirlwind, so my husband and I desperately needed a quick escape. Serendipitously, the Big Bad Wolf book fair landed in Alabang, providing the perfect excuse for a much-needed staycation. We snagged a fantastic deal on Agoda – a one-night stay at Acacia Hotel Manila for under Php5,000. The proximity to the book fair was a major draw, but honestly, pure relaxation was the real agenda.
Our family vacation in Tagaytay last July 2024 was relaxing, thanks to our stay at Via Appia Tagaytay. They made it easy for us to unwind and enjoy quality time together. From the moment we arrived, we were impressed by the amenities and the friendly, accommodating staff.
2024 was a year of stark contrasts. It was marked by profound loss and unexpected joy, by heart-wrenching grief and newfound hope. It was a year that tested our resilience, deepened our love, and reshaped our understanding of life.
