8 Barkada Bonding Ideas On Where To Catch Up Or Catch An Adventure!
Here’s a round of ideas for you and your friends for those who have much need for catching up or catching an adventure together!
CATCH AN ADVENTURE
1. MASUNGI GEORESERVE
If you want an outdoors adventure like going on a hike but find that most places are just too far, Masungi Georeserve is your barkada’s best best. The Georeserve can be found in Tanay, Rizal and is one of the most sought after destinations at the moment. Complete a group of 7-14 and for P1,000 each, you get a 4-hour hike with your friends, a park ranger to show you around, and a picnic set up with a stunning view.
2. DECA WAKE PARK
Feeling a bit more extreme? The Deca Wakeboard Park in Davao is the biggest wakeboarding facility in the Philippines. Wakeboarding is a popular sport that combines snowboarding, waterskiing, and surfing. You are towed by an overhead cable, and are launched in the air at varying speeds when you hit ramps and slides positioned at different angles. The rates range from P400/2 hours, P700/4 hours on weekdays, with an increase of P100 on weekends.
3. TRAMPOLINE PARK ZERO GRAVITY ZONE
Want to take a break from being adults? Hop on the trampoline and leave your worries up in the air. For P320, you can jump non-stop and even play volleyball, basketball, dodgeball, parkour, go on a dance workout, or just somersault into a yard full of yellow and purple foam. Plus, it counts as a work out! Primary co-founder of Trampoline Park Mark Hogsden says, “Trampolining is extremely powerful for your core, because in every jump you need to tighten your core muscles in order to control your body position.” Zero Gravity Zone is located in The Portal at Greenfield District
4. MAD TRAVEL PH: TRAVEL WITH A PURPOSE
“Adventures that matter” is their tagline. Discover a beautiful destination far from the regular tourist trail. You’ll not only get to trek through beautiful mountains, you’ll also get to rebuild a 3000-hectare rainforest through the tree-planting activities and immerse yourself among the Aeta indigenous community. For P1000 per head, there’s lunch and snacks, planting trees, swimming, trekking, archery, and tribal dance. Try their local cuisine, island hopping, and enjoy jamming and bonfires on the beach. Part of the proceeds will go to continuing rebuilding the 3000-hectare rainforest to fight climate change.
CATCH UP
Georgina Wilson-Burnandt, partnered up with Bea Soriano-Dee and Eric Dee, Jr. to produce the newly opened Sunnies Cafe. Dubbed by The Style Bible as “Every Millennial’s Instagram Heaven”, the cafe is picture perfect from the interior design, to the food which ranges from comfort food from all over the world, all-day breakfast, and decadent desserts! As a treat, they’re offering free dessert with any order until August 8. Sweet!
6. GAME OVER PH
For those who want to partner catching up about your work, love life with some geeky competitive fun, Game Over in Xavierville, Katipunan is perfect for every kind of gamer. They have all kinds of board games (P200 play all you want), old school arcade cabinet games, console games (P950 inclusive food, drinks, 1 hour play on a widescreen TV, P450 for medium set tv), and pc games (P80/hour). The wall-to-wall geeky interior and Mexican, Asian, American comfort food don’t fall short either of making anyone who just wants to have casual fun, feel at home.
7. THE STRANGER THINGS
A vanished boy. A telekinetic girl. A sinister government. An insidious force. Everyone is talking about this hit web series, but strangely enough it’s something that most of us missed! If you’re a group of friends who just want to chill at home, we suggest you grab some some popcorn or some BBQ, huddle together, and binge-watch all 8 episodes of the the much-raved about sci-fi and horror web series, The Stranger Things. You can watch it online and if you don’t have a credit card to pay for your subscription, just download PayMaya!
8. THE YARD
One of the newest food hubs in the Metro is alive and abuzz especially at night in Xavierville, Quezon City. It’s a multi-level park that hosts 30 of carefully selected food & beverage tenants who serve nothing but delicious and budget-friendly dishes for friends who want to enjoy the night away. From Korean to Japanese-Mexican grub, to Hong Kong, and Filipino street food, to European and American cuisine, plus eargasmic music from up and coming bands and artists, it’s a good feast, and an awesome night waiting to happen.
