I’ll admit it, part
of my mind was still wrapped on our missed opportunity of traveling to Balabac
Islands. I find myself mentally drifting over its impossibly white sands, the
kind travel dreams are made of. They say it’s one of the most beautiful islands
in the world, and I was ready to believe it.

On the journey back
to Batan Island, I found myself fighting off nausea aboard a small faluwa, the
traditional Ivatan boat known for its open deck, deep hull, and absence of
outriggers, built to navigate the strong, unpredictable currents between the
Batanes islands.
