such a wonderful and peaceful place.. Someday I will visit those beaches…
Hi Ian, it’s Vita. Nice meeting you. How’s your Jogja and Surabaya trip? Hope you enjoy it! Looking forward to the photos 🙂
Hey, Vita! Good to hear from you. Jogja was great. I had fun! The rain, however, was a damper. I also met Doni in Surabay. He helped me finding my way to Bungurasih where I can board a shuttle to Juanda Airport.
I will post photos soon.
Nice meeting you, too!
Hi Ian,
Guess what? I have booked the ticket to Manila this year. I will go there on 30 April up to 3 May! Yay! I plan to go to Boracay but the ticket is still too expensive. Is there any other way to go to Boracay except by planes? Also can I have your e-mail address may be so I can ask you questions about this trip? Thanks, Ian 🙂
Yey! Great. Sent you an email, Veetha.
Wow.! so relaxing I’ll add this in my bucket list for 2015.

This was a very helpful guide for tourists and even local travelers who wants to discover new places. This post actually made me realize that there are still a lot of other places to go to in the Philippines. Our country is indeed rich in resources and beauty.
This just proves how beautiful our country is! Great post!
Which of those are visited by less tourists? I’m not used to stay with lot of people around me…
Siargao.. Would love to be here soon, even if I’m not a surfer. ^^ I’m just too scared of huge waves. I’ll just appreciate the beauty of Siargao instead. 🙂
