Gonzales ended up with cuts and bruises while taking a crash course on surfing. Still, she treasures the experience.

“We were in Siargao for over a month,” she recounts. “I felt so lucky because we got to stay in one of the most beautiful destinations in the country. It was like work and vacation rolled into one. We were one big, happy family there.”—BAYANI SAN DIEGO JR.
