Travel summer gate way in (CALAUAN LAGUNA)day#1

"TOGETHER INJOY AT CALAUAN LAGUNA"

You don’t need a luxurious resort to be happy sometimes, a river, a simple hut, and the whole family are more than enough for an unforgettable experience.
In this photo, you’ll see smiles, embraces, and laughter shared by a family wading together in the cool river of Calauan, Laguna. Randy, the head of the family, was the one who invited everyone to this humble getaway that turned into a day filled with endless stories and joyful moments. No signal, no gadgets yet the day was overflowing with happiness.
The children were gleefully playing in the water while the adults savored the fresh air and peaceful surroundings. The bamboo huts by the riverside served as resting spots, where home-cooked meals and well-worn family stories were shared told over and over again, but never losing their charm.
Here, you truly feel what “provincial life” means simple, calm, and full of love.
Sometimes, all it takes to reconnect with each other is a break spent in the arms of nature.

Let me introduce you to my family—they're all here!"

"THE PILLAR AND LIGTHS OF OUR HOME"
In every smile and embrace, you can feel the decades of sacrifice, love, and care. My parents live a simple life, but their love for our family is beyond measure. In this photo, you can see how—even in the middle of a river and a modest getawayt hey bring with them the warmth of home.
They were the first to teach us how to find joy in life’s simple moments. From them, we learned that happiness doesn’t have to come from luxury when the family is complete, that’s more than enough.

My Sister’s Family: A Summer Getaway in Calauan, Laguna
☀️🌴💦

There’s no greater joy than seeing a happy, complete family—especially when the little ones are having the time of their lives! In this photo, you’ll see the smiles, laughter, and playful moments shared by my sister’s family as they enjoyed the cool waters of Calauan, Laguna.

It warms my heart to watch them genuinely enjoying themselves in our hometown. Even though they came all the way from Antipolo City, which is quite far from us, she told me that every moment of the trip was worth it.

My sister is the eldest among us siblings, and like me, she’s blessed with two healthy and energetic boys:

👦 Kurt Andrei, her eldest
👶 Kyle, her youngest

Together with her loving husband Patrick, they made this family trip extra special.

     MY BROTHER FAMILY 

This is my youngest brother and his family. He lives in Santa Rosa, Laguna.
He is married to Diana, and they have two daughters.
Shaine is their eldest daughter, and their youngest is Zabei.

In this photo, they were able to experience a moment like this—free from any worries or problems.

“Cousins Reunited”
👨‍👩‍👧‍👦💦📸

Amid the cold river water and joyful laughter, this photo captured a special moment the very first picture of cousins reunited once again.
Some of them hadn’t seen each other in years. They grew up in different places, followed different paths, and lived in their own little worlds. But on this day, during a simple vacation filled with laughter and shared splashes in the river, the bond between them came alive again as if it had never faded.
You can see the joy in their smiles and the excitement in their movements like nothing ever changed. Even the younger ones, who barely knew each other before, were now playing together in the water, creating brand-new memories

Fun Travel in Calauan, Laguna: Budol Fight and River Bonding! 🍃🍽️🌊

This was one of the happiest vacations we've had as a family! What started as a simple outing turned into an unforgettable experience in Calauan, Laguna.
Under a nipa hut with a thatched roof, the whole family gathered around for a classic budol fight—no plates, no fuss, just hands and good food shared with laughter and love! We had fried chicken, grilled fish, veggies, and of course, the ever-favorite dipping sauce with vinegar and chili. There was laughter all around, endless stories, and that beautiful feeling of togetherness and joy.
After the delicious meal, the kids ran straight to the river to splash and play! It was heartwarming to watch them enjoy the shallow water some screaming with excitement, others chasing each other, and a few just sitting quietly, soaking in the cold, refreshing stream. 🧒👧
This photo feels like a perfect snapshot of a perfect day: no gadgets, no stress, no worriesj ust laughter, bonding, and pure family love. Especially with the cousins all together again (even if they rarely see each other), it was like no time had passed at all.
These are the kinds of memories we’ll always come back to. Simple, but overflowing with joy and love. 💚💚💚💚

Catindig Family: Togetherness and Joy in the Heart of Nature
☀️👨‍👩‍👧‍👦🌿

There’s nothing quite like the happiness that comes when the whole family is together—laughing, singing, and creating memories side by side. In the middle of the cold river and lush greenery, we were once again reminded of the true meaning of family: being whole even in the simplest of moments.

This was the first time we were all together again, as everyone now has their own families and comes from different, faraway places. On this day, it felt like we went back to our childhood—full of laughter and endless stories.

This photo is like a page from a storybook—a story filled with joy, laughter, and bonding that no amount of wealth can ever buy. Children happily playing in the water, parents watching over them while exchanging stories and laughs, and siblings finally reunited, even if just for a little while.

This is the Catindig Family—simple, joyful, and full of love. It’s in moments like these that we realize you don’t need a fancy place or a grand feast to make lasting memories. What matters most is that we are together as one.

💚💚💚💚💚💚
Together is our favorite place to be. Thanks for taking time to review in my journal
