Barkada Summer Outing

A Barkada summer outing is the kind of outing during the summer that is easier to organize and execute compared with the whole-family summer outing or the corporate summer getaway.

A place to go, some itinerary and at least two friends. A barkada summer outing could be as simple as that. Reunion among former classmates whether in elementary/high school/college often lead to a summer outing to the beach or overnight swimming on nearby pool resort.

I've noticed that young professionals are the group that can afford to go to lots of summer outings with their barkada. Scheduling-wise, colleagues at work find it easier to come up with the date of their outing.

Compared with a family outing, participants in a barkada summer outing can fend for each other. It is easier too on transportation and accommodations so long as every one who will be going has money to spend. As compared to corporate summer outings, there's no need to plan about group activities and where to conduct it. Plus, there's more concern with food, transpo and accomodations for large numbers.

And if you're the type of person who accumulated lots of friends since you were young, expect to receive an a lot of invites to join a Barkada summer outing or perhaps you're the type who takes the initiative into organizing one..
