Imagine spending a day with no electricity, no Internet, no cellphone signal, and no toilet. A scary picture for technophiliacs and Internet junkies, but camping outdoors is one of the best ways to de-stress and find yourself. A lot of people have gone to and from Anawangin, a cove near Pundaquit in Zambales. It is probably one of the best places on Earth to unwind and commune with nature, if you are into those kinds of things. [gallery] (For more pics, visit my photoblog.) Anawangin, however, is crying. I went there with a few friends and was surprised at the number of people, campers and locals alike, that are enjoying their stay at the cove, together with their trash and noise. Some of us explored the place and went into the forest and took pictures. They were surprised, apalled, and disgusted at the amount of garbage and refuse they found hanging on trees, littering the forest floors, and dotting the banks of the freshwater stream that may not be used for drinking anymore. What was more annoying was the relentless pollution coming out from the pieholes of other campers. I have never seen people never having a care if trivial banter was overheard by other people, proving how full of shit and hot air they really are. We all agreed that the cove will not last five years if the pollution, noise and/or garbage, continues. It may look nice, beautiful even, right now, but it will only last if we let it last.
