The weather was fair and I arrived very early to the bus terminal in Baguio City, about two hours bus ride from my place.

I went to this city to attend a two day event by Digital Nomad and since I am early, I chose to walk my way going to the venue as I saw on the Google Map that it is just 550 meters away from the bus terminal.

After having my initial walk, I glanced at my phone to check if I am in the right direction by looking at the actual landmarks that are indicated in the map and the first structure that I referred with is the 3BU Hostel.

Then I proceeded with the walk and I also consider this building as a landmark because of the giant wrist watch that is displayed on its facade.

And I start to walk further until I reached Session Road where the venue of the event is located.

Here, I found another landmark that is easier to find due to the shape of the structure which is somewhat that of an octagon of which the Luneta Branch of Banco de Oro bank is located.

Then I saw the outline of Porta Vaga Mall with its beautiful architectural design, this building is located just across the venue of the event which indicate that I am getting nearer.

However, I didn't hear the prompt from the Google map of which direction I am going to head, worst, is I feel somewhat disoriented caused by staying on a confined vehicle while traveling uphill through zigzag roads but I stayed calm and I continue to take pictures of things that caught my attention and most of these are buildings that I found along the way. Not far from where I paused to rest my feet for a while is the Prime Hotel building.

Then another hotel caught my attention and that is the new Hotel Venice branch along Session Road.

I crossed the street as I am very optimistic that the venue of the event is aligned with the structures found along the street of which I am not mistaken and found the building.

Finally I walked my way to the third floor, and since I still have enough time to take pictures, l took a few clocks of the view that I saw at the window.
