I am often in the city lately because of the documents I need to process and other government-related requirements I need to update. I really feel tired during these times, especially when I need to commute to go there. But recently, my partner decided to accompany me on the simple errand I needed to run in the city. And we ride on our motorbike during the travel.
Since I am already working in the office, I had to request a half-day leave to process the necessary documents. It was approved, and my partner just picked me up from the office, and we drove straight to the city.
It was a peaceful and smooth ride, as there were only a few cars traveling with us. Even though we're on the way to the city, we still appreciate the view of the trees along the side of the road, making the ride more relaxing.

Aside from the scenery, we are also amazed by the beauty of the view from the sea up here. We witnessed the gorgeous blue skies and the waves of the ocean. It's a typical scene for those traveling to Zambales, especially when visiting the northern part of our province.

Since we're on our way to the city, I haven't forgotten to wear our helmets. It's also for our safety and to avoid getting a ticket from the officers. Here's my favorite helmet of all time, in my favorite color, too. My partner has a black one, though.

Here goes the city vibe! After a few minutes of riding, we finally touched down in the city, and we were welcomed by the traffic lights that caused cars to line up. I am glad the traffic was not that heavy.
The bustling streets and the large number of people passing by told us we were already in the city. The noise is different. We passed by a church, and I took a moment to thank God in seconds for the safe ride.
We went straight to the government offices where I have appointments, and I processed everything, starting with the National Bureau of Investigation (NBI). Next, we went to the TESDA office to claim my allowance after completing the Bookkeeping course.
Overall, it was a tiring but productive day in the city. I also appreciate my partner for being patient and waiting for me, and for ensuring my safety wherever we go.
