https://underratedadventuresspot.blogspot.com/2022/07/daraga-lahuy-island-caramoan-camarines.html Barangay Daraga is one of the Four barangays that occupy Lahuy Island in the town of Caramoan, Camarines Sur, Philippines. A peaceful community where residents look after one another with utmost care and concern, know one another, and seem related to one another by blood. Daraga is a humble community; that’s why it was a surprise to me to find them all so very welcoming to visitors; that’s why there were no doubts or fears that crept into my veins to go around the community hour after my arrival. Still, in a boat from afar, I was awed by the sights I was looking at from the seashore to the mountaintop, the beige and grey shoreline and the multi-shades of green on the mountain, the colorful fishing boats docked at the coastline, painted houses, building. The residents gathered along the shore, resting and chatting after the day of work. By the time I got off the boat at first, I had noticed everyone was looking at me, sensing that another stranger had come into the community. Having been to different places, such an occasion is no new to me. They look at you with gladness for your arrival and gauge how they will handle you and how you will interact with them. As I passed a group seated under the tree by the seashore, I now took the first step and initiative to greet them. Such a move is my style to make the residents comfortable with my presence, so as I uttered my greeting, they responded with a smile. Following that brief exchange of greetings, my niece introduced me to them, so the more they flashed a smile and welcomed me. Upon settling at my niece's house, I immediately shot the sights that kept amazing from afar and right where I was standing. I asked my guide, the skippers of my nephew-in-law, to bring me to the top of the hill to get full shots of the ocean, the islands nearby, and the barangay. As I got to the top, the more my heart was pounding with the scenic views I was looking and only then did I discover that is so much more to explore inside the island, so many adventures to engage and plenty of places to visit. Early the next day, upon my arrival, I strolled the community all by myself to fully immerse myself with the residents. I was in a store selling general merchandise items to buy cigarettes and water for the stroll. The intent of buying turned to personal casual chatting, talking about different things. I could not even notice I was already late for our island-hopping take-off schedule because I enjoyed having casual conversations with the store owners amicably.

Traveling back to the time of the early settlement by the people in the old Najid region, the way the village settled, the society organized, and the introduction of education remains possible even up to this modern day, the moment you pay a visit to the Al Ushaiqer Heritage Village. More than 1500 years ago, the native Bedouins found a place suited for settlement with the availability of the essential basic needs of the people to live; water for the residents, animals, and plants, which are the source of their food supply. As part of the development, in the later years after the settlement, they established a school to cater to the basic education needs of the children in the village. #saudiarabia #youtube #travel #saudiarabia #historical #tourism

It is a perfect place for sunset worshippers to enjoy the romantic and scenic spectacles from the west as the sun slowly slides its way to hide, giving way for the night sky to embrace the surroundings. #desertsafari #tourism #philippines #filipino #riyadh #youtubechannel #youtuber #india #unitedstates #usa

This village may be small, with a lesser population in the middle of the desert north of the province of Riyadh. Part of the Al Thadiq town, and may be small, however, visiting here is never an empty-handed trip, for it has plenty of stories to tell, historically and traditionally, not to mention the landmark of the ancient travel path trails, old house ruins in the ancient settlement of the town. At a distance of more or less 125 km north of Riyadh City center, it takes the visitor to a two-hour drive in an enjoyable ride of viewing the sprawling multi-colors facet and formation of the plain desert land, a golden mountain of sands, gulley, and the riverbeds. It is best to visit this town during winter to avoid the searing heat of the sunlight at a high temperature during the summer seasons. #deserteagleeyes #deserteagleonetapheadshottrick #saudiarabia #youtube #filipino #history #historic #india #pakistan #unitedstates #usa

Besides being one of the exciting places to visit for trek and desert mountain adventures, this trail has so much to tell about the early trading and transport history in Saudi Arabia’s north regions and neighboring countries, Jordan, & Egypt. Located in Al Thadiq municipality, visiting Maghatya Trail means traveling back in time to the days when traditional transportation via camel and donkey caravan worked to connect people from different places for trading and other socio-economic engagements. Now, in our days, the place stands as one of the top heritage places that one should see, experience, and enjoy its breathtaking landscape of the mountain path, river passages, waterfalls, and escarpment. However, the water flowing through the creek and falls disappear during the excessive summer heat and a long period of not having rain.
