[Heart22]

I love to travel and if given an opportunity to have money and time I really want to visit more within or outside the country. Here are the places that I visited in our country.

MINDANAO

Davao
-it's my hometown and I spend most of my life. Davao is also called the city of fruits (durian, langka, mangga, banana, mais, grapes, etc.) and also you can find more wild flowers like orchids. There are lots of attractions offered in Davao like Paradise Island, Samal Island, Pearl Farm, Gap - where you can find THE LAND OF PROMISE, Philippine Eagle Centre (in Malagos), Crocodile Farm, Eden Nature Park (man-made tourist attraction).

Butuan
-My mom's hometown. A 7 hours travel from Davao to Butuan. When I was young, we always hang out in Butuan thrice a year either to visit my relatives or my dad since he was assigned as a Project Director in DPWH at that time. I always admire the Agusan River and if I think its condiered as the longest river in Mindanao. There are some stories about that rivere where in many people killed because they were eaten by the crocodiles. My cousin told me that they even saw one crocodile that was caught few years back. I'm also curious on their cinema theater coz they always have 2 movies in a price of one. (very cheap huh ) but I heard lots of negative remarks on their cinema theaters.

Surigao
- Most of our travels, Surigao is our stop-over place. If you are fond of beaches and water activities Surigao is the best place for that especially in Siargao Island which considered as Surfing Capital in our country.

Bukidnon
- I visitied once in Bukidnon specifically in Malaybalay when I was 10 years old. That was my first and last visit there. My half sister's husband is one of the manager (i dunno in what department) in Del Monte and all I can see lots of pineapple plantation everywhere

Cagayan de Oro
-A 9 hours travel from Davao to CDO if you take the Butuan route. They have Friendship Plaza, Gaston Park and Pelaez Center. You can also try their white water rafting in Cagayan de Oro River.

Camiguin
-A real ecological tourist destination. I love their Lanzones (hmmmm sweet!!!!!!! :mrgreen: ) You can visit in the Sunken Cemetery where the community cemeterey was sunk since the volcanic eruption. They installed a huge cross to signify the importance of the place. You can visit also the Hot and Cold Spring, White Island, Catarman Church Ruins ( a church remains of volcanic eruption), Katibawasan Falls and Tanguines Lagoon. You can't help but fall in love with this place (i assure u that! )

Cebu
- I spent most my college life in Cebu where I studied at the University of San Jose-Recoletos taking up BS Tourism (now u know why I travel a lot hehehehe ) I considered Cebu as a cultural and historical destination because as we all know it's the country's oldest city. Visit the famous landmarks such as Magellan's Cross, Sto. Nino Church, Lapu-Lapu Shrines.... etc. (many to mention). You must visit MALAPASCUA ISLAND, BANTAYAN ISLAND, BADIAN ISLAND, CAMOTES ISLAND, OLANGO ........... (and again many to mention hehehehe )

Bohol
- I really want to visit Bohol again! Visit the ff: Hinagdanan Cave, Chocolate Hills, Man-made forest (the best! :mrgreen: ), Mag-aso Falls, Loon Church. Best food, people, nightlife and activities!

Manila
- BEST for Shopping, dining and night out - bars, disco, karaoke and all.

Enchanted Kingdom (Sta. Rosa, Laguna)
- The best theme park in our country where they offer best roller coaster, wet rides, bump car, 3d cinemas, shops and more rides!!!!

Baguio
- best climate ever in our country but unfortunately the place is too crowded!!!! Well, you better experience the Flower Festival with men dancing in g-strings hehehe . lots of fruits and vegetables there!

Tagaytay
- I visited the most exclusive Tagaytay HIGHLANDS hehehe. Best tennis court, golf, fishing, relaxing, very nice climate. First time that I ride a cable car hehehehe

Vigan
- feels like you are in a Spanish Era.... creepy houses especially at night. Too many BAWAL especially in what you wear. Better respect their culture!

Ilocos Norte and Ilocose Sur
-FINALLY I saw the preserved body of our late president Marcos! I do admire his intelligence....I love their food and KAKANIN Visit the PAOAY LAKE, HUNDRED ISLANDS NATIONAL PARK (never been thos islands but I saw them from afar), PAOAY CHURCH, MALACANANG OF THE NORTH and other historical attractions and beaches.

Subic
-Former U.S. Naval Base. The preserve most of the natural area of Subic. An independent place where their primary source of income is Tourism. You can experience Forest Survival, Adventure Games, Dolphine watching and more..... if you plan to buy a house I recommend the houses in Subic... the best! (but too expensive)


Well, there are some places that i didn't mention such as Samar, Leyte and other parts in Mindanao. I have lots of happy experiences
and to those people who read my post.... a piece of advice peeps: DON'T GET STUCK IN ONE PLACE. EXPLORE THE WORLD AND YOU'LL LEARN MANY THINGS FROM IT. START IN OUR COUNTRY IN ORDER FOR YOU TO APPRECIATE MORE OF YOURSELF BEFORE YOU BEGIN YOUR QUEST TO OTHER COUNTRIES Ciao!
