Mike and I were able to spend the holidays in the
Philippines (admittedly due to geographical convenience and
short holidays). He was finally able to try Filipino cuisine, one I’ve been
marveling to him about. Of course, he didn’t pass up the chance to try the
ever-famous “balut”, and he even liked it!
We were only able to do some minor traveling, less than we would have liked
because of time constraints but he was still able to enjoy some of my hometown scenery, a local surf spot, and historical and cultural
spots.
Note: One needs to
map out their trip well and wisely when in the Philippines or it can be very time-consuming
and costly.
I am from Southern Metro Manila and it's always difficult for me to answer when people would ask me where I'm from in the Philippines. This is because though Manila City is part of Metro Manila, I am not exactly from the main, more known Manila City, nor where I live is within the city itself. And when I would tell them Metro Manila or say from the south of Manila, they'd automatically assume I'm from the provinces.
I'm not. I'm actually from the suburbs. A beautiful residential area south of the Metro. We take pride in our greener and less populated environment as well as laid-back, relaxed lifestyles. Compared to most cities and towns, ours is safer and more luxurious.

Anyway, to better give you a visual on what we did, I will separate
the articles per place and activity.
