With more than 7,100 islands, surely, there are also thousands of reasons you must go to the Philippines. Here are the first ten.

THE LOCALS

No list of the world's hospitable countries is complete without mentioning the Philippines. The Filipinos are the kindest and nicest people that you'll ever meet. They love to smile and sing, too, especially during their town fiesta.




THE BEACHES

As an archipelago, the country is one of the largest island groups worldwide. There are widely famous white sand beaches like Boracay and then, there are hidden islands such as those in Palawan.




THE SHOPS

The Philippines is also a shopping mecca, with some of the biggest shopping malls in Asia and the world. Apart from the gigantic malls, there are also flea markets, boutiques, souvenir shops, supermarkets, handicraft centers, etc.




THE WILDLIFE

The Philippines takes pride in its widely diversified wildlife. In fact, some of the world's smallest animals are here like the tarsier and pandaca pygmea, smallest primate and fish in the world, respectively. There are also 600 bird, 300 reptile and amphibian, and 200 mammal species spread throughout the country.




THE NATURE

Aside from the animals, the country is a haven for the nature junkies, too. From the Chocolate Hills in Bohol to Banaue Rice Terraces, there is always something to discover in each province. There are also lakes, waterfalls, and caves that you may explore if you want.




THE CLIMATE

Flora and fauna thrive because of the favorable climate. The average temperature 26.6 degree Celsius throughout the year. So, no extreme weathers. It's a tropical country after all.




THE FOOD

While there is no such thing as the Filipino cuisine, every province seems to have its own distinct cuisine. Case in point: the Pampangan cuisine. Likewise, the country and its people are proud of its halo-halo, sinigang, adobo, and lechon, among others. World-renowned chef Anthony Bourdain even dubbed lechon as the “best pig ever.”

THE LANGUAGE

Perhaps, the biggest advantage of the Philippines compared to other Asian countries is the fact that more than 90% of the population can speak and understand the English language. Even the bystanders know basic English mainly because it is the language of the government and other institutions like schools and businesses.

THE LOGISTICS

Traveling around the country is easy and the fares are very cheap. Through riding a jeepney, for instance, you may explore a town or city like the locals. Ride a ferry if you want to island hop. There are also low-cost carriers that serve domestically and internationally.

THE ACTIVITIES

Aside from being a scuba diving and surfing paradise, the Philippines also houses the longest zipline at over 1,300 meters and the first roller coaster zipline in Asia. These are found in Butuan City and Pampanga, respectively.



There you have it! These are some of the reasons that make the Philippines a great travel destination.

Want a taste of Europe without the hassle and cost of travelling to another continent? You might be pleasantly surprised to know that a very attractive alternative is accessible to you right here in Southeast Asia. The Philippines is a gorgeous underrated holiday destination, chock full of European influences and western charm – left behind by the Spanish Colonial Era (1521 – 1898). For those seeking a little more cultural enlightening past the beaches of Boracay, we recommend a historical tour of the Philippines’ best-kept Spanish heritage sites. After all, how can anyone complain about a history lesson when you’re on holiday?

Vigan City, Ilocos Sur

First up on anyone’s list of Spanish scenic sites should only be Vigan City. This capital city of the province Ilocos Sur is a UNESCO World Heritage Site – and with good reason. It’s one of the last remaining Hispanic towns in the country with its structures still intact. In the 18^th and 19^th centuries, Vigan was the center of Spanish colonial power; today, the town is a living testament to the Spanish Colonial Era, exerting strong cultural influence to the modern Philippine nation.

Paved with cobblestone streets and unique Spanish colonial architecture, Vigan City exudes old-world colonial charm, inviting you to take a step back in time. The town plaza, Plaza Salcedo, is a good place to start if you’re up for a walking tour. But to truly experience Vigan at its finest, ride a calesa (horse-drawn buggy) down the picturesque Calle Crisologo – open streets lined with authentic Spanish Era ancestral houses, and Vigan City’s crowning glory.

San Agustin Church, Manila

Located inside the historic walled city of Intramuros, Manila, the San Agustin Church is one of four proud members under the Baroque Churches of the Philippines – a collection of the most treasured Spanish-era churches in the country, that served as the political backbone of Spanish colonial rule.

The original San Agustin Church in Intramuros, Manila, was the very first religious structure constructed by the Spaniards on the island of Luzon. Today, it is the third church to be erected, but the present edifice is still nothing short of magnificent, having been patterned after the medieval Augustinian temples of Mexico.

Known for its interior, the Church promises an enchanting experience, complete with traces of the original Mexican wall painting, and choir seats carved with ivory inlays of the 17^th Century. Intramuros may have lost its shine as the nerve center of the country during the 350-year Spanish rule, but the grandeur of Spain lingers in its ruins, and certainly in the San Agustin.

Taal, Batangas

The heritage town of Taal is famous for two things – its old ancestral houses, and being home to the largest church in the Philippines and Asia. Enter the Basilica of St. Martin de Tours, which stands at a massive 88.6 metres long and 48 metres wide.

Around town you can find historic and grand ancestral homes, some of which have been converted to museums open to the public. Head over to the Villa Tortuga for a slice of upper class life during the Spanish regime – the dinner package includes dress-up time where you can don period dresses and have it immortalized in a souvenir photo. A tourist trap? Maybe, but Taal was declared a National Historical Landmark for a reason.

Santa Maria Church, Ilocos Sur

Ilocos Sur isn’t just known for Vigan City. This Philippine province is also where the Santa Maria Church, or the Nuestra Señora dela Asunción, can be found. Curiously enough, the Santa Maria Church isn’t built following the traditional Spanish urban town plan of situating a church in the heart of the town plaza. Instead, it stands alone majestically on the crown of a freestanding hill enclosed completely by a high stone wall – a true fortress!

Another UNESCO World Heritage Site, and part of the Baroque Churches of the Philippines, the Santa Maria was built on top of a hill as a religious center by both the friars of the citadel and the soldiers of Spain. Made entirely of brick, it makes for quite a sight, especially with the sweeping stone stairways connecting it to the town, and to a cemetery. The outer walls are built with buttresses of typical Earthquake Baroque architecture, which is probably why it still stands today in its original form.

Malolos City, Bulacan

Hailed as the Premiere Heritage City of Bulacan, Malalos City shines with historic importance, having been the center for many vital events that took place during the transition from the 19^th to the 20^th century – such as the establishment of the Constitutional Convention.

Take a scenic stroll around the many ancestral houses from the Spanish and American Colonial Eras, or wander through the numerous Spanish colonial churches and chapels scattered around. Malolos is one of the few towns in Philippines with three Spanish-era churches: the Barasoain Church, Malolos Cathedral, and Sta. Isabel. In August 2001, the historic little town of Malolos was declared a National Heritage Landmark.

The Barasoain Church is a Roman Catholic Church built in 1630, and is home to many prestigious titles. It housed the first Philippine Republic, as well as the Constitutional Convention – carving for itself a name of incredible historical importance amongst Filipinos and tourists alike. Doesn’t hurt that it’s one of the most beautiful churches in the Philippines.

Miagao Church (Sto. Tomas de Villanueva Parish Church), Iloilo

Last on the list doesn’t make this any less of a ‘must-see’! Looking at the grand Baroque architectural style of the Miagao Church, you’d be forgiven for thinking you’re suddenly in Europe. Don’t be fooled though, the church façade is a mixed influence of Medieval Spanish, Chinese, and Muslim elements, embellished with Filipino folk motifs, making it a stunning fusion of cultures.

Also known as the Sto. Tomas de Villanueva Parish Church, the Miagao Church is the third member of the Baroque Churches of the Philippines – and with good reason. This mighty fortress has withstood typhoons, earthquakes, and even rebellious arson during the revolution against Spain in 1898, and the Philippine-American War.

The distinct yellow-orange sandstone is reminiscent of old western gothic cathedrals, and the Miagao Church is a shining example of a traditional Spanish Baroque fortress. And standing on the highest point of the town, it’s a guarantee that you’ll be glad you made the trip.

Travellers who are looking for that authentic Caribbean experience should definitely consider going to the island state Barbados. The 432 square kilometre island country that sits a few kilometres off the Caribbean Sea is one of the most developed pieces of land in the area and is a popular tourist destination that has climate similar to the one we have in the Philippines, making it a bit closer to home than other tourist destinations we’ve talked about before.

Here’s an infographic showing the different things you can do while at Barbados. 

 

Travelling is one of the best things to do with your mind, body, money, and time. Nothing enriches you the way travel does. Breathing in the air of a new city, every day fills you with a different kind of ecstasy. The kind of wisdom that you can gain from travelling cannot be gained by reading all the scriptures of the world. 

However, travelling to different cultures can be difficult too. A number of unexpected things, cultural differences, and not being prepared for emergencies can put you in a fix while you are thousands of miles away from your country. Especially for the amateur travellers, there might be things that can intimidate you enough to give you up travelling for life. There are certain things that one can only learn from experience. 

Here are a few tips on travelling that can help you have a smooth journey, no matter where you are travelling-

Travel light- Yes you have the perfect bag to go with that dress, but it’s not worth it. Always travel light. Minimise the clothes you are carrying with you. For a week’s trip, a couple of denims and three t-shirts should do the trick.

Booking the air tickets- Book you air tickets well in advance. Whenever you look at the price, it’s the cheapest that it’s going to get. Always clear your cookies before browsing for prices. Airline websites show a higher fare if you’ve visited the site a few times.

Footwear- Many people don’t pay much attention to this, but you HAVE to have a comfortable, reliable pair of footwear with you at all times. The best way to really explore a city is on foot and you wouldn’t want to end up with blisters on your feet on the second day of your trip.

Mixing with the locals- Just clicking pictures and wandering in the streets of a new city is not travelling. You can get the pictures of every nook and corner of Earth on the internet. Travelling is only worth it if you mix with the locals of the place. Respect them for the diversity.

Carrying cash- Not all countries and cities would accept debit and credit cards for small payments. Make sure that you have sufficient amount of cash in your pockets at all times. Ask around for travel cards and cash cards before leaving your country.

Carrying medicines- Terms and conditions for OTC drugs are not the same for all countries. In addition, you might react to some salts in an unknown medication. Always carry the basic medicines- for cold, cough, fever, stomach infections, allergies, body ache, headache etc. It could be disastrous if you forget a medication that you are on.

Trying out foods- Never hesitate in trying out a new dish. You will always repent later. Even if you don’t like it, you can change the taste of your mouth in a few minutes, but the memory of tasting stuff would stay with you forever. However, be careful about the ingredients you are allergic to.

Take help from technology- The technology today has made it a lot easier to travel all across the globe. You can decide for the accommodation, mode of commuting in the city etc. before you even leave your home. There are smartphone applications that can help you organise your entire trip along with storing your tickets and details for bookings. You can use the internet to make easy things for you. For example, if you are travelling to Australia, you can go through the Australian business listing to search for the best possible hotels and chauffeur services.

Team building is a must on every organization. The joint effort of each member of the group could play a major role in the success of the whole company. It is then imperative for managers and supervisors to re-group their subordinates and gather everyone up so as to build a stronger and better workforce in the days to come.

Here is a short checklist for team building organizers. Be guided on the basic items to think about when choosing a venue for your event.

1.       Specify your goals. There are several reasons why you could host this affair in the first place. Aside from having fun and reducing stress, would you want to encourage creative input or improve communication skills? Would you like to assess your unit’s strengths and weaknesses? Perhaps, you’re aiming to eliminate conflicts between two members? Whatever your purposes are, itemize them all. Note them down on a piece of paper so that when you browse for possible reception venues later on, you could easily decide which among them could make you reach your objectives.

2.   Identify your line of activities. Once you determine the agenda, you need to distinguish the type of activity that could bring out the results that you’re aspiring for. It should be engaging enough so they would be excited to participate. Your choices could range from indoors to outdoors, physical to mental exercises that are most fun and enjoyable. As soon as you come up with a tentative list, you could then gauge which among your options could offer the finest amenities and services.

3.       Consider timing. When is the best time to schedule this outing? Would you do it in the beginning of the year when everybody is fresh with ideas and concepts? Or would you have in summer to take advantage of the “vacation mode” that people tend to feel during these times? Would you plan an all-day trip or an overnight stay? Would you time it on weekdays where there are less visitors or weekends so you’re all free from work? How you settle on the timing could help you a lot in booking a destination. For instance, if you are planning to have it around April or May where beaches and resorts are mostly full with tourists and bakasyonistas, you might need to reserve in advance so you could completely enjoy the sceneries in the summertime.

4.     And last but not the least, weigh the budget. How much would you allot for the entire trip? There’s the cost for transportation and travel, as well as the room expenses. How much would you spend if you’d opt for an accommodation in Tagaytay versus the one in Batangas? There’s also the food consideration while on the road.  Enumerate all the spending you could incur so you’d know where your finances could bring you.
