I've been wanting to visit this place since the news came out. I have a fascination with anything colorful so this is definitely a good sight!

I've been to Benguet almost every month but I haven't had a chance to visit this so I said to my self, the next time I'm having a hike in Benguet my sidetrip for myself is this mural.


This project is a first in the country and is designed by the Tam-Awan village artists, the project was adapted from favela paintings in Brazil.

The residents are the one who painted their houses along with other volunteers and members of the police.


DOT aims to promote more sustainable tourism in the region giving Benguet and specifically La Trinidad an attraction to visit.

How to Get to La Trinidad Benguet from Baguio City

By Taxi - This is the easiest. From where you are just hail a taxi and tell them to bring you at KM3. You will not missed it for it is on the right side going to La Trinidad. But just to make sure you can tell the driver to drop you on the colorful houses in KM3. Fare will depend where you're coming from specifically in Baguio and of course the traffic. You can prepare about 100 pesos one way and is less than 30 mins.

By Jeepney - You may ride a public jeepney going to La Trinidad that will pass by KM3. Fare is 9 pesos.

Continuing my haul posts are my cute finds and I mean literally "finds" from Baguio. If you already went to Baguio and knew how ukay-ukay are very extravagant there and how indulging it is to go hauling with price as low as 10 pesos there you probably knew what I mean.

When they told me about this ukay-ukay at Baguio, first thing in my mind is that I will not buy things that's not really of my type wholeheartedly. Yes. Almost everything caught my eyes, but I need to resist the temptation of buying all of them. Because of that, I'm the only left without hauls. Isn't it frustrating? To think I'm the only girl, me with Chard and Edzs, that both of them already bought a lot leaving me with nothing.

On our last day, finally! I've bought some cardigans on cheaper price!

This is an entry to my 80 before 30 challenge. Benguet, off the list.
