It has been three weeks since I had a blast in Guimaras Island with my High school friends. Went back to facing my monitor and pressing my keyboard as a freelance writer all day and now it hit me – I need to get away again!

I just got broke and still reviving my finances but as a wanderlust, I don’t need to spend a fortune to have a perfect weekend get-away. So for my next destination – the island of Negros. It’s not far from where I am currently based with my family, thus this trip will not consume a lot of my travel time and of course, my money..

I have been to Negros mostly during road trips but I am curious of  some local attractions and landmarks that  are not far from the capital city of NEgros Occidental,  Bacolod City,. I’m talking about the cities of Talisay and Silay; Talisay comes next to Bacolod and Silay next to Talisay.

I will be with my newfound travel buddy and photographer friend; we make the perfect tandem when it comes to our choices in destination.

We will be visiting The Ruins of Talisay City which is a big skeletal mansion in the middle of a vast sugarcane plantation. In Silay, we are planning to hop from one ancestral house to the other.

So, wait for post and as a freelance writer, I’ll be happy to share my travel tales from Talisay and Silay City.
