A Day at the National Museum of Natural History + Underwater World via #LGOLEDWallpaperTV

I became a museum girl when I started exploring places. Back when I was in school, I only see a museum day or museum trip as a sidetrip to explore other things outside school (those were the days when parents were so strict)

I am always up for adventures, but I am okay for slow walks around alleys of artifacts and national treasures. I always find it fascinating how museums preserve history and tell stories of one’s place and its people.

One of my favorite musuems is the Acropolis Museum in Greece.
Read my Greece Travel Diary.

I got the chance to visit the newly renovated National Museum of Natural History in Rizal Park, in Manila. I have been meaning to visit the place since it was re-opened in May after its renovation. But you know how we tend to dismiss the idea of visiting (touristy) places near us.
