My company finally figured out whether or not they will be around for the next few months, which means the long needed vacations are finally coming thru again.
Hopefully this time I will get to climp up Mt. Arayat and swim in the pools they have at the top providing my brother in law doesnt fall out half way up. I love going back to the quiet little village or borongay as its called where life is simple, the kids run around free of worry, and a cop may only come around once a month.
A community that really polices its self and enjoys the simple pleasures. I highly recommend anyone ever going there to get away from manila and really get into the culture. And by luck if you marry one of the local beauties you get to buy a home at a fraction of what it cost anywhere else.

I agree with you bro...be in Manila in July and Davao right after that....and my much awaited vacation of a lifetime is a 9 month long parental leave in December...with pay in the Philippines!!...courtesy of the Canadian military..LOL...That's why I love the Canadian Army...

I'm still in Taguig, Metro Manila, for the time being. Working out details on a gig, so I may not be here long.

I agree with you, CG. My favorite times here in the PI were when I was living in a little village down in Negros. MUCH friendlier than Manila.

Enjoy your stay, and stay safe.
