Would you like to go to the Philippines?

I have spent a little time in The Philippines, but found the cities a little dirtier than most other Asian places I've been to. There are over 1000 islands making up The Philippines, and many are beautiful. The people are friendly and helpful, but ferry transport between the islands can be dangerous as companies squeeze too many passengers on the ferries.

Come here now maximax8, LOL we are looking forward to see you LOL,would you like to meet to some fellow mylotters that's become your friends here? :) Anyway, check this site out, this is not unexploited and the paradise secret is still remain. Not been there yet, but the feed back is so amazing. Just 8hrs to travel by land.... Try it!It has 10 different islands to explore! http://www.caramoanislands.com/

I think it would be nice to go there for a visit. I'd have to renew my passport though. I assume I need one coming from America to the Philippines. Those passport things seem to take forever. Or at least they did seven years ago when I first got mine.

I live in the Philippines. I'm glad you mentioned my country here. I live here but I haven't visited many places here yet. I stay at the northern part. My hometown is really green. Mountain ranges are good image background when taking pictures. There are many white beaches here. Some are not really popular. Inform us when you come to visit Philippines... :)

ohhhhhhhhhhhh yes maxi.we even considered to live there someday and build a house to our beach property in Bohol.how i wish we could afford the flight and even if we can afford we still can´t fly because hubby needs to visit the Dr. time to time.

You seem to be an avid traveller. Certainly, I would like to go there to see those sceneries you described ' enjoy the breath taking scenes nature provides and take photos that will always be fun to share, ofcourse, you being the leader.

I would like to go. Though I am not planning any outing , and that too abroad. But Philippines is a great travel destination. I like it, and have seen nice videos and pictures of that place. Someday when I will have enough savings I may plan it.

It was truly an honor for me as Filipino to know that someone like u wants to go to the philippines.. And I am proud and lucky enough to live in the Philippines, I live in surigao (dinagat islands) and I spend almost all of my time going to the beach...

Yeah sure ,I would like to go to Philippines as recently,I have watched a movie which is directed in Philippines ,I am longer for their clean atmosphere as well as the bright sunlight and the beach ,most importanly I want to see their unique culture which seems more interesting to me ...

You're welcome to our city maxim. It is a city of surprises. Nature and city life blends well. If you get tired of the enticing night life, then nature calls one ride away. There are the Kaling rapids too if you would want to traverse the popular Chico river and go water rafting, the Visayas are also tourists spots. Here is an article which could give you some tips. http://www.helium.com/items/1180931-visiting-the-philipines

I live in Davao City (Mindanao), just walking distance from the Philippine Eagle conservation facilities. Malagos, where I live, is also very famous for its flowers and orchids. You can also see Mt. Apo, the highest of Philippine mountains from my place. There are many great beaches in Davao City, in the neighboring provinces of Davao del Sur, Davao del Norte and Davao Oriental and in the Island Garden City of Samal (IGACOS). Asiaweek considers Davao City as within the top ranking 20 most livable cities in Asia. People are very friendly, there are many fresh fruits and vegetables, and fresh seafoods are also plentiful. The weather is benign the year round. Accommodations are many, and the price very affordable. There are many flights to Metro Manila and other Philippine cities everyday. Land and sea transportation to major destinations in the Philippines are also available. WELCOME TO DAVAO CITY! Please feel free to ask for more information.

Yes, I would like to have a travel to Philippines. After all, it's not far away from the place I live. I am from Guangzhou, by the way. I like the beautiful beach and I like the difference. So Philippines is a good choice for me:) I love China

Hi maximax8! I am from the Philippines as you know already. haha..I love living here and would love to see other countries too. I believe that all countries have very unique beautiful places to offer including my country. I have also wanted to be a tourist in my country and enjoy all the beautiful places nationwide. I have been to a few and I know that I have a lot more to see and enjoy. I am blessed I live here and I am blessed that we can offer so many beautiful places for other tourists to see. I hope you can visit our country one day and I am sure that you will have a beautiful time here. Take care always my well traveled friend! Keep smiling! lovelots..faith210

hello maxima,yes i would wanted to stay in philippines when i grow old...i want to spend my time farming as well as having a trip to boracay islands..palawan is great too..goodluck and have a nice day

What more can i say? They've said it all. Go pack your things then visit us here in The Philippines. You're more than welcome! Afterall, we're not the most hospitable country for nothing.

In southeast asia, singapore and malaysia are most visited these days by mainland chinese. Tailand, India and Philippines used to be talked about, but for whatever reasons not very much promoted by the tourist agencies nowadays. I hope the situation there can improve soon, and agencies of these countries show initiative to attract more visitors. Anyway, Philippines is also on my list.

i don't like to go to the phillipines. because i don't know the special of philippines. i don't know the people mentality and that's gorgeous items.
