Philippine Travels

Hi to those that have passed by. Its time for an upgrade and a few more travel stories to be added. Bookmark and I will add a few more trips I have done over the last two years. Most of these trips have been down to the south islands and time spent in Cebu and Palawan.  Back soon with great trip reports and photos. 

This is a pretty long Youtube Video on on these guys travel to Biri island, they have done it well with the music.. 

The Philippines is a lot of things, but one thing is consistently true: Filipinos are inherently happy people and genuinely compassionate towards others! and believe me after living in China for five years, its been so refreshing to jump a plane and head here for my vacations and time outs. So when it was time to leave the working life of China the Philippines was the natural place for me to come and unwind and soak up the smiles British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) proves this even more in a documentary released a month ago explaining the “Filipino factor” and what this beloved country of ours has to offer despite the “third-world country” tag. “The Filipinos are incredibly generous people, always welcoming, always entertaining and happy to give up their time to the outsiders,” the documentary concludes. Forget politics for a moment and give this BBC documentary a watch.

Going to give these guys a plug on the blog too, as its always cool to have a great place to hang at  the beach. We have had a few good nights here, all good.. Food, Music and Drinks.. what more could you want on a hot Philippines beach night.
