And just like that, Palawan had me wanting her so bad.

It was just last week when I explored Palawan Philippines with my family.  After so many years, a family get-away finally transpired---the Iletos and the Macaraegs (my dad's sister and her family from California) enjoyed a four day trip in such a beautiful place as Palawan.

In fact until now, I am so confused on what to write about this trip, I just felt there are so many things that are worthy of sharing that I really do not know where to start.  Do i post pictures? Do i discuss the place? My personal experience with my son? Write a travelogue perhaps? Really this has made me thinking for days that only NOW I sit down and write down my thoughts.  

Perhaps to sum up my experience, I felt like I was a "lakatsera sa Palawan" for a time.  From beaches and river to restaurants and churches, to wet and dry market tours, I can say that I have conquered Palawan pretty well:)

I know very well that Palawan is too famous already that every Juan knows about the wonders of nature you can find there.  So, I will not write about that.  Perhaps I just want to share some points I learned about Palawan and why it became so memorable to me:

First: It's our first travel destination! Me and my little bieny!  I enjoyed him so well from our flight going to PPC and then our adventures in the city and then back in Manila. My son's smile is priceless.  I know he learned a lot from our trip!

Second: I learned that Palawan is the safest place in the Philippines when it comes to natural threats due to erosion. earthquakes and the like. Palawan has no fault line, therefore no quakes can rattle this place.  I'm actually considering buying a lot here where I can build my dream house!

Third: People are very hospitable, kind and soft-toned.  I think they will make great neighbors! hehe.

Fourth: Of course I love the beaches!  I love the salty air! I love the beautiful rock formations, the place is just jam+packed with many wonderful things to see!

Fifth: Tourism is good, I don't think there is a dull business operating in this place. I would consider opening a travel agency, or a hotel or a canteen of some sort!

So there!  If you haven't gone to Palawan, it's about time to think about saving some of that allowance for this heaven!  

Id definitely go back to this place.  El Nido and Coron will surely rock my world.:)

Travel with your loved ones. Explore Palawan. Explore Philippines:)
