    Ever had a dream that just won’t fade away? That kind of dream that sneaks into your thoughts out of nowhere, making you wonder if you’ll have the chance to live it? That was Lake Sebu, Philippines for me.  For years, I have daydreamed of exploring its stunning waterfalls, rolling hills, and mesmerizing lakes.
