May forced leave ako on the upcoming weekdays so I can't count on my friends na papayagan sila mag leave on such a short notice

I have been to Pagudpud na, pahinga ko lang is the stretch from San Fernando to Vigan, nagpapalit na ako kasi I came from work that day, then Vigan to Pagudpud ay ako na ulit.

Ang initial plan namin is sa Matnog, Sorsogon which is kasing-layo rin ng Pagudpud. I haven't driven that long na solo

1. Tips on how to drive this far na solo lang?
2. I will be using Waze/Google Maps all the way, hanggang Lucena lang ako familiar. Reliable ba yun all the way to Matnog? Nung nag Pagudpud kami, Waze was on point.
3. I have the following already: tow strap, jumper cable, 2x15L diesel jerry cans, 2x spare headlights, basic tools. Baka may recommended tools pa kayo to bring
4. Any notable or recommended waypoints and stopovers?
