As we all know Sagada is located in the mountainous area of Northern Luzon thus, making it a perfect spot for mountain climbers or those who are just simply looking for thrills and excitements. Your Sagada moment is surely not complete without trying extreme activities especially spelunking both Lumiang and Sumaguing Cave.

Almost 3-4 hours cave exploration, hundreds of meters underground, squeezing into tiny holes, crawling, bending into weird positions to go through a spine-tinging passage, walking through the unknown darkness. This activity is surely not for the faint hearted. You must exert extra caution and never ever enter the cave without a guide or you will end up getting lost in the unknown. Okay, I'm not trying to scare you here, I'm just setting up your expectations, at least you already know what it is like down there (gives you the idea to make the decision of whether to go or not but is suggest you go haha).

In this post I will be sharing our itinerary during our 3 days stay in Sagada. Please take note that this was arranged by the travel agency, you can customize your own itinerary or make this a guide in making your own itinerary and as to what are the places that you should visit. If you are a first-timer, you may also follow this itinerary.

If you wish to book a tour with the travel agency i highly recommend A Whole New World Travel Express because of their easy and reliable payment terms. Their service is very good and their guides are friendly and accommodating. You can even request to visit other sites that are not listed in the itinerary which we did. We requested to visit Gaia Cafe which was featured in the movie That Thing Called Tadhana and our request was granted! :D

If there is one place that I want to visit again that would definitely be Sagada. I would define it as a precious stone hidden behind the mountains of Cordillera Mountain Province. A small town at an elevation of 5000 feet above sea level, Sagada is a perfect escape from the busy and organized-chaos life in the city. The cool relaxing weather and peaceful community is what i miss the most. For nature lovers like me this would be a perfect place. I'm not a beach goer and I would rather choose to explore rivers, trek, climb different mountains and dive in the falls (though i don't know how to swim, haha!).

Why does life need to be unfair.

There are people struggling to live. Fighting every single day for their breath. Taking all chances, doing whatever it takes just to live. 

On the other hand, why there are people wasting their lives, ending their lives as if they are just switching the lights off. Why does it so easy for them to throw their lives away as if they are throwing a piece of paper into trash. 

Ever heard of a Harry Potter-Themed Cafe? Cool right! When i first saw it on my facebook wall i got very excited and immediately marked a date on my calendar for a magical (yeah i know I'm a bit exaggerated ) trip to this cafe in the north called The Nook Cafe. I'm such a Harry Potter fan and i can't forgive myself if i miss this place.
