Should We Ban the Writer ???

We just received our issue of the National Geographic Magazine and the Philippines was so mentioned as part of the trade in the Blood Ivory article.

Raining in The Metro

The Philippines is a tropical country and has only two yearly seasons: the rainy and the dry season. Usually the months of the rainy season start around June when the classes start, however throughout the year typhoons and tropical storms enter the Philippine Area of Responsibility (PAR) and bring about rain.

Thunderbird Resorts in Poro Point, La Union

It was our second visit to Thunderbird Poro Point in San Fernando City in the province of La Union. We already stayed there last summer and we promised that we would definitely come back. We stayed in the hotel for one night then, when we came down from Baguio. It was a beautiful resort, with majestic Greek style hotel and villas, big swimming pool, golf course, casino, great restaurants and beautiful sceneries.

Fish Harvesting in Pangasinan

The countryside of the Philippines is really spectacular. Every which way you turn your head to, there are photo opportunities. 

Car Wash in The Philippines


Having a car wash in the Philippines is still fascinating to me as it is still manually done usually by boys clad in shorts, tattered shirts and flip flops. In just 15 minutes to 30 minutes, depending on the car wash shop you go to, your car, van, SUV and even a motorbike can have a thorough clean up.
