WOW Philippines... Tara! byahe tayo

I believe that the Philippines has something to offer for all kinds of travelers. One can be spoilt by the vast choices. If you are an adventure vulture and love beaches there are more than 7,000 islands to choose from. White sand, brown sand and black sand, the Philippines have it... and there's even a pink sand beach in Zamboanga (wow!).

Traveling within the Philippines is a very good way to experience life itself. People who have the chance to travel should immerse themselves with the local culture and not just be a passive traveler. Some say that the Philippines is more of a Latin American country because of its strong cultural ties with Spain. As a result, the people are passionate and emotional about life. I don't mind labeling Filipinos as a Latin American-Asian. Anyway, my country has a rich history combining different cultural influences like Asian, European and American.

Filipinos are very fond of the English language so as a result it is the third largest English speaking country in the world. It has a rich history combining Asian, European and American influences.

My Lakbayan grade is B-!
