#RoadTripperMonday – a weekly feature of our very own Road Tripper.
Welcome to the second road tripper for the month of July! Today, we will feature Rojielyn Verdadero, an avid anime fan and animal lover! She joined us on one of our Singles Road Trip. She’s always on the go. She hates spicy food. 1 sip of spicy ramen = 2 glasses of water. And basta may camera, pak.. pose! She is a woman with a big heart that she tries to go on volunteer work as often as she can.

4. If you could go back in time what would you tell your 16 year old self?
I would tell myself that I should enjoy every moment of my life. Do not rush into anything. Take it slow and cherish every emotion and moment in life. May it be happiness, sadness, joy or pain. All of it will mold you to a better person that you want to be. Lastly, it takes only myself to be happy.
5. If you can be teleported anywhere around the world, where would it be and why?
I choose Finland. I really love the scenery and culture there. I want to know more about their ways and tradition. Most of it would be my desire to see the Aurora Borealis and Santa Claus Village!

Curiosity would always fuel the desire to travel, that’s why there shouldn’t be any limitations when it comes to it. Everyone can start at any age. We have our own pace to follow.
12. What is your best experience in traveling/living in the Philippines?
My best experience is when I realized that the Philippines has so much to offer. From the people, food, scenery and experience. It would always boil down on how eager you are to discover its hidden beauty.
13. In one sentence, how would you like people to remember you?
A person who is willing to discover life in a different perspective.
