I came up with this so I can show the marvel of nature and the vividness of every structure around.

I am an amateur travel photographer, not a travel blogist nor a travel blogger; and photography blog is just one of my favorite past time. This is to have a say in my little way the usual art of places I have been, I have seen and will be my future destination.

I am fond of road trips, riding an airplane, commuting via local transportation, sitting on the bus or simply having that long stroll to places unfamiliar to me, though I want the country side- the mountains, view of the river, the cascading waterfalls down the road, the animals, the farm, the blue sky and the view of the night sky, more than the sight of the buildings proudly standing along the city highways.

It is more fun, exciting and best to experience the tour with the locals, it is one way of acquiring acquaintances and friends.

Traveling for me is a moment to touchbase with my real self- to think, learn and grow.

Please check my external page / Facebook via my Virtual Tourist account.

The Philippines is composed of 7,107 islands, with three major bodies of water enveloped the archipelago- the Pacific Ocean on the east, the South China Sea on the west and north, and the Celebes Sea on the south.

There are 79 provinces subdivided into component cities and municipalities at present, making the 17 Regions of the entire Philippine nation, and all features a collection of wonderful and popular tourist destinations.

The Philippines official name is Republic of the Philippines. The name Philippines is derived from King Philip II of Spain, the name Las Islas Filipinas was used to cover all the islands of the archipelago. It was during the American Period when the Philippines or PI for Philippine Islands started and it has since become the country's familiar name.

The Philippines has a humid climate with rainfall and tender winds. There are three evident seasons- the rainy season (from June to October), the cool, dry season (from November to February), and the hot, summer season (from March to May). If you wish to travel around, it is more fun and exciting during the summer months, that is from March to early June. You never wanted to go stranded in an island, right? Or if you want to experience typhoon, set off to the Bicol Region. It’s cool to get wet and take enjoyment in the rain sometimes. LOL.

The Philippines has 100 language collections, with Filipino (Tagalog) as the official and English (2nd language/unofficial).

Tourism is one of the most important specialties of the Philippines because of its rich natural environment. The Philippines has beautiful beaches that boasts of clean and clear bodies of water, majestic waterfalls, cascading rivers, unspoiled caves, mountain resorts and lots of virgin islets/islands needed to be discovered. These have given tourists enough motivation to go back for more.

A friend introduced me to Virtual Tourist, at first i really don't know what it offers until i enjoyed every posts of my travel pictures, but still, never knew how to build those travel pages since i am very lazy creating and my mind doesn't work to create such a good story behind those places.

I came up with photography blogging, since i am not a "real" blogger, I would let my pictures speak of the places i visited.

I am a proud member of VT, and liking it!

To get rid of the urban life's stage show, I take a moment to be with myself, be with happy people, travel someplace, having that calm moment sitting on the bus going somewhere with my music player on; OR simply having a bottle or two of beers with friends. I just need to make myself clear that I never drink with thoughts of tribulations on the other side of my mind, I wanted to relish that drinking moment happily and not to think of sad story of the rabbit lost to a turtle.. I won't mind what would happen the next day or if I still got money to go home. Haha.. Kidding..

The very moment I enjoyed the place, the company, the environment, I will always look forward to crop up that again, expecting, sniffing like a dog following traces of food then run back to kilometer zero where I will lay my back and go to sleep.

I got the tourist foot, everywhere I go I consider it as my official travel even without pictures. Haha..
