When we're not too busy filming at the beach farm, we like to go around Northern Samar to find new spots. The opening of the Samar Pacific Coastal Road made it easier for the people of the "Pacific" towns - Palapag, Mapanas, Gamay and Lapinig - to travel to the nearby towns Laoang and Mondragon, and Catarman, the capital of the province. However, it also benefits those of us from outside who are now able to visit the Pacific towns.

The Pacific towns are named as such because they are bounded by the Pacific Ocean, like a good portion of Northern Samar. As a result, there are many beautiful rock formations in the Pacific towns. The Pinusilan Lagoon (or Pinusilan Blue Lagoon) which is in Mapanas is just one of many rock formations here.

Most times, I post videos about the construction of our beach house/farm house in Northern Samar (which we've named Maya's Beach Farm) which began in January 2022 and was finished in August 2022. Since then, we have been working on some improvements to make the farm more livable.

This is video #49 for me. If you enjoyed this video, I have an entire playlist which shows the progress of the beach house construction from 2021 to 2023. So if you're interested in that, here are some of my recommendations:
