Hey Guys!
Not long after our Cebu trip during my vacation last summer in the Philippines, it was time for adventures at my hometown! ...or near my hometown at least! Malilipot is one of the Municipalities of Albay and is famous for its attraction, the Busay Falls.

"For lovers of waterfalls in in more or less unspoiled nature a day trip from Legaspi to Malilipot ca be warmly recommended. From here, on the north-east foothills of Mayon, there is a path leading in the direction of the volcano to the Busay Falls. These falls descend in stages from a height of 250 meters, flowing into seven pools on the way that temp you to swim in them. If you don't want to jump straight into the first pool, then turn off onto the path on the right just before it.After about a 15-minute this will take you to the second pool."
Description taken from here.

 My sisters and I were able to visit this beautiful & refreshing place because of our friend Ian. The place is not so far, so as long your own car especially when you start going towards the direction of the volcano. Be prepared to bring good slippers if you wish to hike up and see the 6 other waterfalls and swimming attire if you wish to get wet! We, unfortunately, didn't bring any clothes to change into but the hike and wadding in the water was satisfying enough (although I was tempted numerous times to not care and go home soaking wet! HAHA).

The first one, which requires no hiking, is the biggest one. On its usual days, the water is very clear... sad for us. Expect that the crowd usually gather here, as it the easiest one to get to and there are cottages available for your group to chill & eat.

Unfortunately...we didn't get to see all 7 falls. But man, it was a really nice hike up and the breeze was really refreshing! Asides from gas, all we paid for is the parking fee which isn't expensive at all. If you're in Albay, come visit the place!

With Ian behind me >.<
