I am proud to live in the Philippines. This is my first and last love. Philippines is a very rich archipelago where you can enjoy the different sceneries and experience different cultures my country has to offer.
Philippines has a wide Array of coastal towns where you can visit the beaches. There are beautiful beaches here that are very relaxing and still not so commercialized like boracay. You can visit from Babuyan islands down to Tawi-tawi and still you won’t get enough of.
If you want to visit the cooler places to unwind, you can visit my hometown Baguio, the city of pines. We have a lot of vacation spots here like Tam-awan village where you can see the replicas of the huts from Kalinga province, mines view, burnham park, wright park, camp john hay among others. And you can taste our delicacies such as lengua de gato, peanut brittle, strawberry jams and the like and eat fresh vegetables that our townspeople cultivate.
Or you can visit my birthplace just a few kilometers from Baguio, where you can see the strawberry farm and pick fresh strawberries, you can taste our fruit wines and just enjoy strolling around.
I can only say, see, and experience it yourself! Perhaps, once you step afoot on our place, you would not want to leave anymore.

If you travel a lot and haven’t been to this wonderful country then i suggest you visit the Philippines. It has so many beautiful tourist spots you can even visit the WOW Philippines homepage for the lists of tourist attractions and destinations all over the country. I suggests that if you are on a budget and you are located in Manila you may take some trip to the Summer Capital of the Philippines which is Baguio, it will only took several hours from Manila going there via land, the climate is good and the sceneries are worth seeing.
Puerto Galera is also a great place whether you’re into jet skiing, snorkling, diving or just simply enjoying the heat of the sun it’s one of the best place to visit. You’ll enjoy the ambiance from sunrise ’til sunset there’s no dull moment even during night time and perfect for those people who enjoy partying all night.
If swimming is your cup of tea and you don’t want walking on a sand then these 2 places best suit your needs: Laguna which is very famous for it’s hot spring and resorts and the other one is Bulacan known not only for it’s homemade sweet delicacies but with the numerous wave pools surrounding the province as well.
So, if you’re planning your next vacation and you’re still considering your budget then, don’t think twice the Philippines is a great place for such memorable moments.
