This was my first journey to Tagaytay alone. It was one afternoon. The sun is warm and shinning. I am planning to go to a place called "Subi-Montea" where in lots of people or milktea enthusiast are talking about. This one is located at Aguinaldo highway, Tagaytay City In front of yellow cab. They have lots of variety flavors to choose from and you can customize your own tea.
I ride a bus to Alfonso which is Main transportation if you are going to commute. Actually i don't know how to get there, i just follow my instinct and ask Manong Diver to drop me in front of Yellow Cab Tagaytay. I sat beside the window so i can feel the cold breeze later. There are several times that it rains but after a couple of mins. it stopped and the sun is out again. I was a bit worried if manong driver forgot me to drop by. so i ask manong diver if lagpas na kami, but he says "wag ka magalala nene wala pa tayo dun medyo malayo pa" Then i was releaved. :)
As i watched the side streets, people doing their jobs, waiting buses, jeepneys, or even just people walking beside the highway. I didn't notice how time passes by. It was a pretty long drive, gloomy and cold.
When i arrived exactly 3 o'clock its only me at that time. I feel lucky, because i can choose where table i will spare my time.

Before i order, kuya barista ask me to choose what milktea base i want its either milk, citrus, yogurt or cheeskcake, then choose Tea Bags from Dilmah for the flavor, and choice of "basecamp" and of course your sugar level which is one of the unique service of this milktea house.

I thought the place is large like other milktea houses i visited before, but this is quite small. They played lots of mellow musics that suits the entire place. They also have this kind of mirror with post it written by their regular customers.
I ordered Milk for the base, blueberry flavor for the tea bag and strawberry burst for the campbase. When i ask kuya barista if they have cheesecakes which is the one i aim for travel he said "Mam sorry po pero wala na po kaming cheesecakes, pinullout na po. If you want po may waffles kami. " the i was like *_*
(*This is my first time to try real cheesecakes, but unfortunately its not available. *Facepalm) So i ended up choosing Nuttella waffles. (*Fist time to try nuttella. ^_^ )
Honestly, i really like this superb! The Mouthwatering waffles plus refreshing milktea and relaxing ambiance of the places really makes me wanna go back everyday or every week.
Basecamp and the tea bag.
OUTSIDE:
Selfies
After that outbusting heavenly meryenda, i go outside and start to walk freely and feel the cold breeze while appreciating the view. I know its hard for me to surpass this walkathon because of my health condition plus the cold air, but i want to try atleast and i will stop if i cant do it anymore.
Highway.
I walked as i breathe, with every step i breathe deeply and step again and again. I passed some creepy places, abandoned houses and hotels, forested areas along the way and i even think that someone is following me from behind. I also passed some flower vendors and fruit vendors. It was a wonderful walk alone. Clearing my mind in such a pity world. Realizing my purpose in this world, making my life worth living.
I think i walk at least an hour or hour and a half then i saw this Rotonda as they say and smile. I feel like i can do better and more.
And this is the end of my wonderful day alone but with the presence of the Lord.
