Baybay

 

By ship overnight, we reached Baybay known for VESCA, a university that specializes in agricultural studies. Unbeknownst to outsiders, this is also a place of virgin rivers and majestic mountain peaks, lush forest, and invigorating waterfalls. It was summertime and the heat was intense. After breakfast, we started walking towards the forest. Once inside, the air turned pleasantly cold as sunrays were filtered by thick forest cover. Within minutes, we heard the unmistakable murmur of a river dotted with moss-covered rocks. Mineral water gushed from the river’s rock base amidst broad-leafed ferns and endemic flora.
