Going to Sagada

Sagada-mountain-province
Yun oh.



Dear Pison,

We really have to make this happen. Sagada is almost within reach and I assure you, the pictures you see online can never define all the memories we'll make there. This'll be the second of the many more ultimate adventures we'll take on as Pison!

Well anyway, eto na ang breakdown ng magagastos natin papunta at pabalik ng Sagada for 3 days and 2 nights. Sa transportation meron tayo 2 choices pero pinili ko na ang Regular bus ng Victory Liner (air-conditioned pa rin to) dahil mas mura to kesa dun sa isa.
Autobus Terminal - P450 (Manila Terminal)
Victory Liner - P400 (Cubao Edsa Terminal)
* Manila to Baguio pa lang to :)

From Baguio sakay tayo ng taxi (P50) papunta sa GL Liner, kasi medyo malayo to para lakarin tapos dala pa natin mga gamit. Haha. Nag-explain pa ko. Amp. Anyway, another bus ride, P200-250 (price range), this time papunta na ng Sagada.

Sa accomodation meron tayong 3 choices: Rock Inn, St. Joseph Inn, Sagada Guest house (George's Guest house). Below are lists of ideal room rates para satin. Pag-usapan na lang natin yung plano sa sharing :)

SAGADA ACCOMODATION #1:
St. Joseph's Inn

SAGADA ACCOMODATION #3:
Rock Inn
Rock-inn-sagada-accomodation

Attic room - can accomodate 18 people P250/person
Bunk room - P450/person
contact person: Bang Omengan 0920-9095899
*dito, kung ito ang trip natin, kailangan ipareserve ng solid para satin lang ibigay ang Attic room. Kasi kung hinde, pwedeng may makasama tayong iba :(




Para sa suggestion ni Tan - Camping! Meron din Camp site sa Sagada pero 5 hours walk. Mt. Buasao. Kailangan lang natin bayaran yung guide papunta dun. Ang rate nya from P500-P1000+. Forgot to take note of his name pero his number is 0919-3363199.

So, to sum it all up, ganito ang breakdown ng gastos natin na may budget na P3,000.

yoghurt-house-sagada



Yoghurt House
. Sabi ng officemate ko dito daw ang pinakamasarap na home-made yogurt na natikman nya. Sabi naman ng mga reviews masarap dito dahil after mo mag cave connections ito yung unang una mong mapupuntahan. Pwede rin pala uminom dito. Medyo mahal ang food compared sa iba.





Cuisina Igorota - parang ordinary carinderia lang din yung presyo (no picture)

Sa inuman naman pa tayo 2 choices Shamrock(no picture) at Persimoon Cafe.


BTW, may curfew sa Sagada! Pag uminom tayo sa labas ng accomodation natin hanggang 9pm lang tayo pwede kundi huhulihin tayo ng mga lespu!
