Its been
ages since I have visited this site. Moreso, I felt that as the owner of this
blog, I failed to to show some level of commitment to update it in a consistent
manner. So when I typed in the address nomad1104.blogspot.com, I stared at it
for some seconds. Probably, some minutes of minimal eye blinking. It feels like being reunited with an old
friend. There is that downpour of emotions and you feel the need of catching up
but you just don’t know where to start. I am writing this article more than just an
obligation but as a way for me to bridge the gap of the promise it showed when I
created this site to its current uncertain state. The uncertainty which I need
to rebrand and define.
I am starting
with an account of my Guiting Guiting Traverse last Holy Week. I never
thought that I would be able to realize the dream of scaling one of the
most difficult mountains to climb in the Philippines. More than just the realization of the dream,
it gave birth to a new goal: the journey
to the Knife Edge Trilogy. Guiting Guiting was the opening salvo and I am just
finding the perfect timing to visit Mts. Halcon and Mantalingajan and hopefully
have my own awesome story to tell. For now, I will reserve the full details of
my Guiting Guiting climb in my next post
but I will share some photos that will
give you a preview of how great the adventure was.
Allow me to
thank TAPIK for inviting me to this climb. And to the new acquaintances we
have, cheers for more adventures to share and summits to conquer.
