And I didn\u2019t think I\u2019d leave the country at all this year, but life really has to start moving again. As seen in this photo, my head is still up in the clouds in Cappadocia. I\u2019m really super thankful that my job takes me to places I\u2019ve never been before or never thought I\u2019d go to&#8230;because honestly, I\u2019m not one to go to touristy places, so Cappadocia was low on my list of places to visit. But now, I consider it one of my safe havens. Cappadocia is so beautiful and charming. They have great food and wine and even better people. I luckily got to meet some of the best ones! Their street animals are kind and calm, a great testament to how their treated. And the view is just beautiful from any point. (My peripherals haven\u2019t been as blessed as they have in the last two weeks.) I love everything about this trip so so much. So I\u2019ll slowly share what I went through in Cappadocia. &#x2764;&#xfe0f; &#x1f4f8; by @nocir &#x1f970;<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"color: #c9c8cd; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 17px; margin-bottom: 0; margin-top: 8px; overflow: hidden; padding: 8px 0 7px; text-align: center; text-overflow: ellipsis; white-space: nowrap;\">A post shared by <a style=\"color: #c9c8cd; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: 17px;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/bela\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"> Bela Padilla<\/a> (@bela) on <time style=\"font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 17px;\" datetime=\"2020-10-05T06:45:16+00:00\">Oct 4, 2020 at 11:45pm PDT<\/time><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/www.instagram.com\/embed.js\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>To make things clear, \u201cYou are truly a professional when it comes to captions,\u201d Norman wrote in the said post, not missing to leave a kiss emoji as well.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou truly are a professional at making me smile,\u201d Bela responded with a laughing emoji.<\/p>\n<p>While only speculations were formed that night, the latest post is a huge answer to all these question marks.<\/p>\n<p>Bela&#8217;s fans are supportive of this romance bloom, especially that the 29-year-old actress&#8217;s last known relationship was years ago with Neil Arce, who is now engaged to Angel Locsin.
