Most people love the Philippines

the temp never gets below 70's and the fishing is great..but the people are very friendly on the Provinces out side of Luzon..this is the Island of Negros Occidental..Bacolod City..the city of smiles..we live not far from this picture..walking distance..

you would too as the climate is very nice but the main thing the people would treat you with the respect you deserve. i am always talked to my young and old people as they know how to treat a stranger..they always treat me like one of the family..a rare things nowdays..it restores your faith in people..people used to be like that when i grew up..respect for everyone

most young people in canada and the usa disrespect old people though I am not old yet,but they treat they like they are a nuisance

you are right. my children dare not talk back to me when i raised them as they knew better..but now the kids are like the wild animals...no respect..but in the Philippines my wife's relatives are more like we used to be..i treat them like a child of my own and a child will only do what they hear from their adults ..most people work two jobs and don't have time to spend with their children..so sad.. my mother always was there for us when we were not in school and taught us to behave and not be mean to strangers...we went to church and learned the Bible stories that stuck with us all our lives so we have a faith to substain us in times of trouble. Some people have NO faith and nothing to fall back on in times of trouble...we could always rely on our relatives for moral support..and maybe a few dollars if we were in need..we did not depend on the charity or the government as family took care of family..we don't seem to do this anymore..no faith means a life that will have no purpose...the world today is just to selfish and materialistic

Hello from a Pinoy

my youngest neice..Emmy Rose..Rosquillo.. she is a real sweet heart and loves to watch Woweee on tv its always nice to see a child that is well taken care of

thanks edward where can i see the dampa?in manila?

the food is always fresh and so is the air..we fish at the break of dawn and have a lot of pinoy friends who we celebrate life with..thankx

thank you for the nice remarks, i too love the scenery and the people...it is the food that is so fresh and tasty..and the people love to see you enjoy their simple life...i like the Jungle and the beaches..so very tropical ...have a nice life

Thanks for the information and the gorgeous photo. I think that I would so love to fly to to the Philippines then go to Thailand and Vietnam. I wonder if Guam is really expensive. I am happy when I see coconut palm trees and a lovely tropical beach. I so love to stay in tree houses and simple looking beach huts. I adore tropical islands and my favorites that I have been to so far are Samoa, French Polynesia and the Seychelles.

no matter what tropical island you go to it will be an exciting adventure.. i like the Philippines because my wife grew up here and has a lot of family and friends. It is always nice to visit and talk to the locals..it feels like home to me.

This is the place. The time is early morning and you are in the "cool" time of the day before the sun heats up and its too hot..but now you can enjoy the many sights and sounds of the ocean..the people ...and you are alone in paradise
