My Adventures in Asia



Asia » Philippines » Palawan » El Nido January 3rd 2013

8 Hours on a dusty road - seats shared with people I keep meeting I made it to El Nido. Arriving at the bus stand it started raining, the woman who was supposed to pick me up said she will come when the rain stops. I acquired a huge suitcase in purto to take all the new stuff with me which was quite a spectacle to all the locals (and foreigners I might add) So I decided to take a tuck tuck and see if I have any luck. The driver was very friendly and took me around town. Finally we had some luck a cottage at the beach (Tres Verdes). The woman I booked the hotel with kept calling me nonstop. I settled nicely for the next 3 days, only trouble is the constant power ... read more

Hotel in Puerto Princessa, Albon Pension as private as it gets in Palawan. I did spent there a lot of time, hanging out in the evening in town with Mark and the Gang. The Landing Strip is very near to the Hotel, its fun to watch the planes pass. Mark and the Gang ... read more

Asia » Philippines » Palawan » Port Barton December 3rd 2012

Alright that’s enough for Puerto princesa, it is not my idea of island living. They even have a rush hour here!!! Hoped on the bus and made it to Port Barton. The Driver was an Artist; the street for the last part was nothing more than a little dirt road. I did make some unbelievable videos but as I said I cannot load them. Hope I will find a way at some point.... read more
Great Journey.

My Hotel in Manila, it seems to be a very dangerous neighbourhood. The Hotel stuff kept telling me to hold on to my bag. But I must say I had a ball with a little mouse on my nightstand. The mouse found some sweets and refuseed to go. Not shy at all.... read more
