From Learning to Leisure: Hive Orientation & Paharuhay Campsite

Hi there, hivers. I would like to share with you our hive orientation that took place at Paharuhay Cafe on July 13, 2024. Jufel suggested my friend Sarah attend the hive orientation, and Sarah invited Rene and me to attend. We went with Sarah to the orientation. Considering that it was a chance for us to get to know this hive community.

Around early afternoon, my friends decided to go to the venue, which is Paharuhay Cafe. From the outside of the venue, I already saw sunshine sitting and talking to other people who may also want to know about Hive. As we entered, Sarah started asking them a question. I even couldn't open my mouth to say hello to them, and so did René. I was shy; my mouth was like being zippered. I just passed by their table and sat at the next table with Sarah and René. After a few minutes, we’re now complete. We proceed to the upper area to start the orientation.

We started a prayer, and we introduced ourselves afterwards. Our orientation was led by @callmesmile. As she continued discussing, I was amazed at how passionate she was to share this with us. I started to like this hive community, as this is a great opportunity for us to blog about what happened to our lives and to our day. It can help us to improve our skills and learn something new.

Our orientation was not boring, as we laughed, smiled, and interacted with each other.

After the discussion, she asked us if we had any questions to ask, and we replied, “Nothing, ma'am." The way she discussed, the way she talked, you can really understand. We’re eating what’s on the table afterwards. Then, we bid our thanks and goodbye to @callmesmile. Some of them decided to go to the Paharuhay Campsite, but I’m doubtful about going. However, when the three of us—Rene and Sarah—were about to go home, Jufel asked us if we want to join them. Then we looked at each other and agreed to come with them.

We've now started walking to the reception area to pay for the entrance fee.

We paid 40 pesos to the reception area for the walk-in.

After that, we continued walking. It’s kind of far from the Paharuhay Campsite. I think it takes 15-20 minutes of walking to get there. The heat that we felt is not a hindrance for us to continue.

There’s a lot of signage that you must follow in order to get there. The road is not scary, and it can really help you lose your belly fat. There’s a lot happening on the road.

I had already been here before, and I think this was my third time being here. When I was with my friends here before, we witnessed the sunset. Sunset in nature is like a remedy that your soul always craves. We’re almost at our destination. We can now see the big tank of water.

After complaining about a long walk, we’re finally in touch with Paharuhay Campsite. As I looked at my companion, the sweat started flowing from their face to their shirt. But after all, you can see the happiness in their eyes.

As we continued walking, we are now at our destination. The fresh air hugged us, and the calm nature and green environment were a kind of relaxation. It can really give you peace of mind. You can forget your problems in the meantime.

We immediately go to the big swing behind the big tank that you can sit on, with a pretty green view. It’s so nice to breathe in fresh air. If you choose to walk in, the places that you can go here at the paharuhay campsite are limited. What I shared with you is only the places that are available for us.

There’s this bench made of wood that you can sit on to see the other side of Beuty, the mountain. It’s so relaxing.

This is the overall view of Paharuhay Campsite, wherein you can witness the sunset and sunrise. A pretty sunrise to start your day and a beautiful sunset to start your night. A comfort, indeed.

We were not able to witness the sunset here since we decided to go home around 4 p.m. It was a nice experience. I came home around 5 p.m. with a happy face.

Thank you for reading, hivers. Hopefully, you can visit this place too.🥰🥰
