The Travel Treatment: Why The Broken-Hearted Go To Batanes

Heartbreak comes in many forms: a failed romance; family problems; unhappiness over a career; or the loneliness that comes with isolation and separation from the things and people you love.

Heartbreak happens even to the best of us. It’s part of being human – natural and common. Thankfully, there’s always a way to make the best out of a bad situation.
