One of my most meaningful vacation.. Batanes!

Meaningful for me since i learned about the province through staying with a family..

i felt like i was an exchange student for 4 days.

The Beauty of Batanes






I would like to thank myles and her family for taking me around in this beautiful place. I recomend Batanes for the people who just want to chill and relax.

The food is all organic and also the people.. meaning they're real! hehe

Wow! Batanes, a dreamlike place I wish I could also visit someday. In my book, it's what I call: Isle of View. He he.... Of course, I love the Philippines! The smiles enhance the beauty of it all. Thanks for sharing the photos. Perhaps, you can write more about the people and the place.

Kitchie Nadal was booked to sing for Globe Telecom along with True Faith and Cesar Montano. 2. Leaving for Singapore Dec 18. I have 2 hours to arrive and get my new luggage for Singapore. 3. Dec 19 we play in Singapore for our Every Nation Church in 12 Riffles Bldg. This gig is fun because it will be our first time to perform with our Singaporean family. 4. Dec 20 fly to India Amistrar.. here comes my faith to enjoy.. As i have mentioned i go to organized paid by others vacation.. from December 20 2006 -January 8, 2006 i

the filipinos

i am almost always on the road driving or with a driver going to different parts of the Philippines ... usually on the road my mind is busy thinking... one of the thoughts that came to my mind is the status of my country the Philippines. the growth of my nation and the status of the economy.. we Filipinos are known for our hospitality and ingenuity. we are very hospitable, we open our homes to friends, family and even strangers.. my point being is .. Filipinos can be very selfless as a small unit.. my challenge is.. we Filipinos can be selfless as a nation.
