Never been to the Philippines? Here are some reasons you might consider it.
Malapascua Island, just off the coast of the island of Cebu.
None of the fotos are from my collection. They are all public fotos from Flickr.com
Beach at Santa Fe, Bantayan, Cebu
Beach in Davao
Boats, Boracay Island
Maribago Beach, Mactan Island, Cebu
El Nido, Palawan
Mt Mayon, Bicol. Mt Mayon is believed to have the most perfectly formed cone of any volcano in the world.
Chocolate Hills, Bohol.
From Wikipedia.
The Chocolate Hills is an unusual geological formation in Bohol, Philippines. It is composed of around 1,268 perfectly cone-shaped hills of about the same size, spread over an area of more than 50 kilometers². They are covered in green grass that turns brown during the dry season, hence the name.
Rice Terraces in Banaue. Thought to be over 2,000 years old.
As the locals say, “Halika! Biyahe Tayo” (Come one! Let’s Travel)
so far, i’ve seen and been to malapascua, bantayan, maribago, the chocolate hills, and the rice terraces.
hope i’d get to see/visit boracay, mt. mayon, el nido, davao, and boracay soon. hehehe =)
post lots of photos of your travel here, ok?
we’ll be waiting.

Hey Leylander, thanks for dropping by. Daghan kaayong salamat akong higala. I have been a fan of your photo blog for a long time and there is a link to it in my blogroll of course.
Yeah, the plan is for lots of fotos. Although I will probably post weekly until I leave hopefully I can post more once I’m there in about 3 weeks. Can’t wait. Will be in Cebu and also planning on visiting Dumaguete.

Breathtaking!!!
I am doing a report on Filipino-Americans for my Elder Law class; may I use some of these photos to justify why my Fil-Am elder is wanting to go home?
Thanks.

Sure, Lori. Use any and all fotos that you like. I just like to see the RP promoted. I hope you do well on your report.

Thanks for posting Philippine pictures. It is my country of birth. I still consider it home although I have been away for 20 years. I do go home regularly, the next one being December. I going to Boracay for the 4th time!
Minor correction: Republika ng Pilipinas
You have it as PiliApinas.
I am compiling pictures of Philippine beaches, so I hope you won’t mind me using some of your pictures, especially of Cebu. I was in Cebu predigital age and I have lost most of the printed copies of my pictures. Thanks.
