Surigao del Sur: Enchanted River & Tinuy-an Falls

Enchanted river has been the buzz for quite a while now. Since it's summer, well it surely is the perfect time to travel and see how enchanting the river is. It is a 5-6 hour road trip from Cagayan de Oro. It's best to travel with a big group. 

Arriving in Enchanted River was probably the most excited I have ever felt since pictures that are up on the Internet look great. I was not disappointed. Clean environment, fresh air, kindest people I have ever met (no joke), and crystal clear water. It is truly enchanting. What more can I say. If you plan to go to Enchanted River, it's best if you bring your own life vest since all the rentals will be rented once the Enchanted River has opened. And it is a must to bring your own goggles or snorkles and an underwater camera. The water depth is breathtaking and it also has a wide variety of beautiful fishes which is great for a photoshoot. The Enchanted River is a mix between salt water and fresh water which is a nice combination for me because I love salt water because it reminds me of the beach.

While we were in Enchanted River, the staff there told us that it is also a must to visit Tinuy-an Falls since it is beautiful. It is a 3-4 hour road trip from Enchanted River but it was all worth it. The water would have been much stronger and abundant if it weren't El Niño right now but it still looked great. But even though the water was not that abundant, I still actually enjoyed it and found it very beautiful.

Buffalo Wings

So I decided to make one of my favourite which is Buffalo Wings. I'm that person who loves spicy food so whenever I go to a restaurant, I will surely order this if ever they have it. So I made this from scratch and it turned out pretty well. Although I went for mild because it is my first time, it still tasted great and had a bit of kick.

Ingredients:

• 1/2 Cup All-Purpose Flour

• 1 Teaspoon Paprika

• 1 Teaspoon Cayenne Pepper

• 1/2 Teaspoon Salt

• 10 Chicken Wings

• Oil

• Half a stick of butter

• 1/4 Cup Frank's Hot Sauce 

• 1 Dash Ground Pepper 

• 1 Dash Garlic Powder

Directions:

1. In a small bowl, mix together flour, paprika, cayenne pepper, and salt. Mix until well combined.

2. Cover the chicken wings with the flour, paprika, cayenne pepper, and salt mixture. Store in a close container and refrigerate for 1 hour or more.

3. In a small pan, mix together butter, hot sauce, ground pepper, and garlic powder together until well combined and the butter is dissolved. Let it cool.

4. In a deep fryer, fry the chicken. The oil should cover the chicken entirely. 

5. Once the chickens have all been cooked, place it in a medium-sized bowl, add the hot sauce mixture and stir together until all the chickens have been covered by the mixture.

6. Put it on a serving dish, serve, and enjoy!

Those are 6 very easy steps. For the sides, I just decided to fry some barbecue powder coated fries. For the Buffalo Wings dip, I decided to just use sour cream. It quite works but it's best dipped in a blue cheese and cream cheese dip or just a ranch dressing. You will surely enjoy the flavor that these buffalo wings have!

Camiguin Island

Sandals: Montego Bay Club

First ever summer blog! So, first destination is Camiguin Island. The island born of fire. Well it's not actually a vacation for me. It is more of like going back home since most of my relatives are in Camiguin. Had such a great time bonding with relatives from my mother's side. Camiguin is also a very nice place where you can chill. Definitely a place to go to if you're looking for a place to venture this summer vacation.

To break the intense summer heat, Sto. Niño Cold Spring is definitely a must visit. It's a cold spring located in Catarman. It is a very famous cold spring in Camiguin. A place where there is always a lot of tourists and as well as residents of the island, most especially this summer.

Another place to beat the summer heat is Tuasan Falls which is located in Catarman. It is a newly developed waterfall which is why there aren't much tourists that visit it yet. But it is definitely a nice place to visit and chill.

If you want to go to the sea, well I highly recommend going to Mantigue Island. It's a white beach and has trees which is nice if you want some shade. You can also go snorkeling if you want to.

If you're also looking for the best seafood in the island with a great view, it's a must that you go to J&A Fishpen Resort and Restaurant, otherwise known as Lagoon. Probably the best since the seafood are fresh. If you want it to be a lot more fun, you can go fishing and the fish you caught will be the fish they will cook.

If you also just want to chill and you're in to bees or just like a very sick view of the sea, you must go to the BeeHive and Island of Honey which is located in Catarman. They serve delicious meals and also sell honey, nuts, etc.

I don't have pictures of the place, but La Dolce Vita is a very nice place for authentic Italian pizza and pasta. Friendly people and delicious food. Probably went back to eat in La Dolce Vita the whole time I stayed in Camiguin.

There are a lot more places that you need to explore in Camiguin but these are the only places that I went to during our stay. It's just a nice place to chill.
