Who would've imagined that this place would be the summit of an active volcano? After a sum of 10-hours of crossing oceans, and a whole day of hiking, Pokis Volcano (Smith Volcano) one of the most beautiful volcanoes in the Philippines— this remote island welcomed us at sunset. It wasn't even the view that made the place so surreal, but the whole place itself. Just being there, gazing through the light made it all worthwhile.
