Shifting focus to our next favourite, we have 21 year old Psychology Graduate Vanessa Mae Castillo. Vanessa’s most memorable moment was the first time when she travelled. Her ambition is to be a Flight Attendant, so that she can enjoy working and travelling at the same time.
Sharing her environmental advocacy, Vanessa says “The municipality of Lobo is a hidden gem in Batangas waiting to be discovered. Lobo is rich in flora and fauna, virgin beaches and green forest. Lobo is also blessed in marine environment, mountains and other tourist destinations. My advocacy is called “EcoTravelling” - being a responsible traveler in visiting tourist spots such as forest, mountains, marine areas and beaches. To date, traveling has been one of the hobbies or recreational activity of many millennials. I would like travelers and tourist to be instilled that by visiting a place they are also responsible in helping to preserve the place. It is always our collective and individual responsibility to maintain the beauty and respect the balance of nature. Be an EcoTraveler and protect the place from possible damage, keep it unspoiled so that the next generation will be able to experience and witness the beauty our world has to offer. “Visit the place, leave no trace. Be an EcoTraveler”
