Stories of town explorations.
Hey girl. Are you looking for him? Don't stay there. Drop off your hairbrush and make-up kit and just go on! Break Free! Meet your man on that road.

Hey girl. Meet you dream boy on the road. He is the man who wears a pair of hiking shoes or flip-flops. He can walk over that dusty street, take the muddy trail and even run downhill under the rain. He finds pleasure crossing that slippery wooden path over the rushing creek and rests his feet at the edge of that mountain rock. You'll see how dirty his feet are but you'll realize - the dirtier, the more fulfilled he is. He is the man who can go with you, anywhere you want.



Hey girl. Meet your dream boy on the road. He is the man with dark, sun-blazed skin. Look closely at his face and you'll notice his skin in uneven. He is sun-soaked because he loves it. When he is on that road, he doesn't much care on how he looks like and when you go with him, beach bumming with you is more important than on how his complexion would appear. Chase him and you'll learn he does not regret at the end of the day. He finds joy under the sun as much as he finds joy applying your sunblock lotion. He wouldn't trade your travel plans over office works and overtime pay.

Hey girl. Meet your dream boy on the road. He is the boy who may have scars, scratches or bruises at his legs but never complains on how his legs look like. He doesn't care how his legs appear before the crowd. You'll see how manly he is. He takes pride of who really he is. Ask him where he got those skin blemishes and he'll talk about his awesome travel memories. You'll learn that each mark is a destination he can relive on. He is the man who sees your scars as a product of adventure.


Hey girl. Meet your dream boy on the road. You'll see that he has no permanent home. He calls the outdoor his playground.  He can adapt to any environment. Go with him and you'll see him eat in bare hands. He finds eating strange food sexy and hip. He can sleep on the floor and on a bamboo bed. And when he wakes up, you'll hear him say, "That was a great night! I find sleeping inside a mosquito net romantic."



Hey girl. Meet your dream boy on the road. He is the man who carries a backpack. Let him fall in love with you and he'll show you that his backpack contains only 4 pieces of shirt he use during the whole course of his journey. You'll be surprised! Check what's more inside and you'll see travel books, travel brochures and at least one memento from his last journey. His backpack might be too old, but he might not trade that over a pair of leather shoes and a box of skin-whitening lotion. 

Hey girl. Meet your dream boy on the road. He is the man who makes people happy. He has seen the situation of the city, the farmlands and the mountains. He has seen the big gap between the poor and the rich. He has met fishermen, tricycle drivers, market vendors, farmers, room attendants, hotel sweepers, truck drivers, bus conductors, hunters, miners and others. He'll talk to you about the diversity of culture. He sympathizes with the less-in-life. Talk to him and he'll narrate his last experience with his 15-year-old tour guide, his strong and healthy 65-year-old habal-habal driver or his hitching experience with the soldiers.
 

He'll mention you how beautiful the dialect of his porter and guide who belong to a mountain tribe. He will also mention how he met an 81-year-old solo backpacker who has no complain of joint pain. Chase after him, and he'll also tell his best travel experience spent with you. He has a heart to the poor because he knows the nature of their livelihood and on how they spend a day at the field to send their kids in the school located at the next mountain after their village. This man won't judge your status in life. Come on, date him.

Hey girl. Meet your dream boy on the road. Hold his hands and see his long and dirty nails. You see? He doesn't hide his imperfections. He usually forgets bringing a nail cutter. But when you look at his backpack, he has a flashlight, a medicine kit and memory cards where he store jump shots and daring half-naked selfies he doesn't usually post on Facebook. He is waiting for you to remind him to bring a nail cutter, or better, cut his nails with love and he'll treat you in a dinner with fireflies around as appreciation.

Hey girl. Meet your dream boy on the road. You'll see his Facebook timeline is full of travel photos. When he opens his laptop, you'll see him browsing and planning for his next destination. Check his Instagram and you'll see that the last food he ate is a street food. Check his twitter account and he's bragging about the latest off-beat destination he just have reached. Hey girl. Meet your dream boy on the road. He is the man who prefers to watch the National Geographic Channel than the hit Primetime Teleserye. But when he feels a little bit romantic and in love, he watches a lovable Korean romantic comedy film dreaming he can backpack Korea someday with his Sassy Girl.


Hey girl. Meet your dream boy on the road. If you'll find him, you're the luckiest girl. He would love to learn to weave a bag for you than buying an expensive brand at the most expensive shop in town. He would save that money for your next trip in a weaving village. He'd cover you with an abel-fabric blanket he bought from his last trip up north. He doesn't care about your dark skin as a woman because he knows he is guilty for turning you into that. He doesn't find make-up kit helpful for you. He finds you beautiful that time you drove a motorcycle uphill for the first time. He finds you sexy when you climbed a mountain and he is behind you watching your every step. He finds you hot when after an exhausting long bus ride, he sees you smile and excited upon reaching the destination.



Hey girl. Meet your dream boy on the road. He is the man who prefers riding motorbikes over sports car. He loves finding adventure without worrying of getting dirty and wet. Hey girl. Meet a backpacker and date him on the road. Because when he is on the road, this backpacker is the real man and he has no pretensions. He doesn't hide his soul and trust me, you will know him well. Meet him and date him, for he is the man who would prefer to marry you at the top of the mountain with the wilderness as the witness than in a guest-filled fancy resort. Your first kiss shall be witnessed by the earth, the air and by the fire of that moonlit cold night.

Hey girl. Remember that the first time you held his hand is at the bus. From there, your journey will now lead to forever. Meet a Backpacker and be married on the road. /end

"Being crazy and being broken-hearted has a thin margin. Don't make yourself crazy."

Having a broken heart is not at all a disastrous condition. Sometimes it teaches you to become strong and to become wiser. It is very helpful in molding the clay of life and to turn the subject into a great masterpiece when the right time comes - well-furnished, well-finished, good looking enough to attract interested parties.

[TAYUM] Broken heart drama: Traveling under the rain, to hide the tears, uh.


There's nothing wrong about being a carrier of a broken heart. It is just a compound noun but will work out as a verb to teach a great life lesson, or an inspiration if not a lesson. My outlook about becoming broken-hearted is positive. Call me jologs now please! Although at first, it may crash your world, can make you insane and make you lock yourself inside the bathroom for hours pretending you're dead, your wounded heart will heal eventually.

Yes, it is like a wound that may create a scar. The great thing is, if a man has experienced being wounded, the scar will remind him of his incautious past, a reminder that this time, he has to be wiser not to touch the thorns or step onto broken glasses. The same goes with the heart, the heart will know if it will get wounded, based on previous experiences and the wounds that serve as reminders.

[TUBO] Teach the heart where to go...

[MANABO] Guide the heart where to go...


So where do broken hearts go? Underwater? At the mountain top? At the crater of the volcano? Or somewhere in the horizon? Actually, you can go everywhere. However, broken-heart-carriers should go to a place where someone could understand them, fill them, feel them, lead them.

If you feel weary with your broken heart, don't go under the rain driving a bicycle (although I drove a motorbike and it is not a good idea) while imagining yourself to be the lead actor of a Korean soap opera or flooding yourself under the shower to hide the tears? Don't go the beach with plans to act as if you are drowned waiting for your lover to save you. Being crazy and being broken-hearted has a thin margin. Don't make yourself crazy.

[TUBO] Finding the way back home


So if you don't know where to go, go back to the basics, go back to the usual. Go back home! Find your home, find your comfort! Because home is where the heart is - the home that nurses a broken heart, the home that teaches a stubborn heart, the home that comforts a weary heart.

For me, being with loved ones and motorbike riding is home, and for a broken heart, it makes me love my home more than ever! The loved ones will make me feel loved and driving a motorbike far away from home will drive the pain away and kiss the hurt goodbye. Home is where you can find the kind of love that will never break your heart. A home that will take care of your heart until you are ready to take the risk again.

This post is the #TownExplorer's entry for the Pinoy Travel Bloggers' (PTB) blog carnival for the month of un-bitter broken-hearted travelers, February 2013.

Hosted and compiled by the Rakistang Nars, Rain Amantiad-Campanilla under the it's-my-ex's-great-loss theme: "Where do Broken Heart Go?" with Whitney Houston singing at the background as a strict requirement. /end
