Hearken to the sound of the sea in Hakupan


Ain’t it so that sometimes you wish to get away from it all, to be in a place where nothing or no one could possibly bother you? A place to just hang around listening to the steady, rhythmic ocean waves.





When that longing comes it might be an idea to go to an island where a solitary old man lives but spends most of his time out at sea.









Hakupan Island is just about 4.5 hectares in size in the northern part of Marinduque, a part of the town of Sta. Cruz.













Once you get there by motorboat, you could perhaps just sit in this hut while sipping your drink, munching a sandwich, then do nothing except maybe start contemplating about writing your memoire..
