Getting to Romblon Province is as easy as boarding a ferry and sleeping out the whole travel and waking up arriving in the island. I’m not gonna say that it’s fun given the long hours of travel but it can be really worth the wait plus it’s a nice experience to travel by ferry, too. Honestly, it was my first time traveling by sea and the experience in totality was really cool! I didn’t even noticed that the ferry was moving already, haha!
