Jan Cardines: The Bae from Bohol.

We got away from the hustle and bustle of Metro Manila this month as we go to the Visayas to look not only for our guy for summer, but also to look for the best summer destinations despite the lockdown and quarantine in the capital. 

Our guy for this month is Jan Cardines from the beautiful province of Bohol. as we know the province is known for its majestic beaches, breathtaking views of nature and historical landmarks, from the white sand beach of Panglao island to the Chocolate Hills indeed the province of Bohol is one of the places to be this summer. 

Let’s  get to know our Summer Guy more.

4. 1. How do you usually spend your summer? (pre pandemic) 

   I would go to Baybay, Leyte because I'm from there. I usually spend my summer reconnecting with nature because it helps me maintain calmness and keeps me grounded. Also, sometimes I go visit my relative at Cebu. And if I’m here at Bohol I usually go to Panglao because it has the best beaches there. 

    

   2. Where’s your favorite summer spot in Bohol?  

   Panglao for sure, because of its white sand and very beautiful beach. 

    

   3. What activities do you usually do during summer?  

   I usually travel between Bohol, Cebu, and Leyte. Enjoying with family and friends. But the common activity I do not just during summer is going to the gym and working out. 

    

   4. Your most memorable summer experience so far?  

   Summer last year (2020). Because I celebrated that summer differently. Everyone was in their homes, no one was going out. Despite the "boring" summer, I was able to reconnect with myself and my family and God.

   

    

   5. Any Summer Fantasies?  

   Camping by the beach with friends.

   There was this one time we went to Canigao island in Leyte. It was night that time and me and my friends decided to walk around the island until we saw a tent by the shore shaking hahahaha. We assumed they were doing naughty stuff so we just went on quietly.
