it's been 3 days since our weekend at the beach but my mind is still there. have you ever had those days where you just decide out of the blue that you're not going to do anything productive at work? welp, i decided to do so for almost half the day at work until i was called by the boss for some issues and received successive e-mails from clients about urgent concerns...buhu.
so right after changing out of my dusty shirt and shorts, harry and i took some photos by the beach and walked around a bit. what's great with daanbantayan is that it's inhabited only by locals and you will never find a flock of tourists here. not that i have anything against tourists -- just that i need my break from the crowd to be sane. i just love how the beach house is built like a dollhouse with no walls facing the beach. yes, it's just folding doors and iron gates. the green lawn is the extension to the kitchen and living room. and the front of the house is lined with talisay trees. these are trees with huge leaves on branches that extend to any available space. the trees just give the perfect amount of shade.
filipinos love to eat. so aside from lunch, we take big snacks in between. the food for the afternoon: steamed oysters dipped in vinegar, lime and salt + green mangoes with shrimp paste.
sheer studded dress - thrifted
mix and matched bikini: printed top and pink bottom - props
yellow and silver flip-flops - havaianas
sunnies - thrifted at carbon
