Day 1: Arriving In Boracay (disappointing?) - Exploring The Best Of The Philippines 🇵🇭

Of all the places I've visited in the Philippines, Boracay has been the most beautiful, adventurous, and busiest tourist island. As a full-time traveler, I generally try to avoid crowded tourist spots. Still, I loved what Boracay had to offer - from various world cuisines, white sand beaches, and water sports to breathtaking sunsets and much more, all in one place.
Being a commercialized island comes with higher costs for everyone, but everything is so well-organized that everyone pays the same rates, so there's no need to haggle with the locals or workers on the island. Moreover, despite being a popular destination, you can still find quiet spaces to sunbathe and relax, thanks to the island's 4km (2.5 miles) long beach.
We recently wrapped up our Cebu series on KZread, which featured swimming with gentle giants of the ocean - whale sharks. Next up is our Boracay series. Thank you for all the love from the Philippines 🇵🇭❤️

Vigan as well is a good place to visit. Then, don't forget Batanes. So many places to visit in the Philippines. These are some of the places to visit, and there are many hidden gems of a place waiting for you to visit, sir.

    Hello Davud. Nice to see you. A little note as about the Greek inspiration of the hotel. Mostly the interior. It is imitation of some motives and colors of traditional houses of Greek islands. Specifically, imitating traditional central Greece cyclades islands of Aegean Sea. You should visit these islands and see the beauty of them. Take care

    Davud, I just became a subscriber and watched all your videos from the Philippines in one day. You are now my favorite vlogger on KZread. I’m from the Philippines, but I grew up in the States. You’ve been to places I’ve never even heard of. I LOVE how you go to areas where the locals are living a life where they don’t have much and some living in poverty and they still manage to smile everyday. I was so motivated by all your videos, I made a bucket list of places to go to. I’m definitely going to all the places that you visited in the Philippines. Thank You so much for giving and helping the less fortunate.❤

Enjoy and take care!
