Salaam,

since some photo threads are launched here, sometimes, I like you to join me on a trip to Philippines. Why this country? Well, because my wife is native filipina and we often spend some time in our second residence close to Leyte

Here some pics

Philippines in pouring rain, but still 30 degree temperature

Seems a lot like the villages in Bangladesh. Thank you for sharing the imges.

A really pityful place to live, specially, when it rained

a beach where I often take my kids to unwind an take a bath in the warm water

while you go to the beach and swim, you can ask a local to take care of your stuff, for a small fee, of course. They are mostly trustful persons of hotels

nice thread.. why did you call it pitiful? seems charming in its own unique way...
You always have to swap one thing for another in life.. sometimes the simple country life is its own reward..

peace!

Humm, yeah, pityful is a wrong word. I would say, 'basic life', no electric, no water, no toilet, nothing. It's just a booth. For a purist life, it would be paradise, for sure.
But I love to be there, away from a rainy cold place I usually live. I will go back only next year in August. It's 13hours by airplane
 
Beautiful pictures, guyabano!
I'd love to see more! :)
 
nice pics
my teacher is from Philippene and the
pics she shows us are sooo nice
 
Thank you for your warm feedback.

I post some more pics of my trips to different sites in the Philippines. Notice that all pics are my owns.

Some of the pics have been deleted by mods as I'm not always aware of what is allowed and what not. But there is never a bad intention. It's just the point that it is a hot country, and people wear only few. But it is always hard to make landscape pics as the people are very friendly there and jump enthousiastically in front of every lens to be in the frame. :D


These small floating boats are for rent. You can have a lot of fun, specially when you have kids

I was thinking where the lil boats are, they look like small houses with pointy roofs :D
 
Mt. Mayon. One of the seldom 'perfect cone' active volcanos. The city down is 'Legaspi'. We often pass by there.

when Filipinos have nothing to do, or have no people wanting to ride their 'tricycles', they play cards

Since my wife and me often make donations to support schools for local kids, we have been invited by the teachers and were allowed to make some pics inside classrooms

When it rains, it really rains hard, but the rain is so warm that you could take a shower outside. That is the rainy season in the Philippines

Our decent small house in Subic Bay, not far away from the birth place of my wife, Olongapo. It is kept decent to avoid burglars. My wife's mom take care of the house and also live inside when we are not there.

every year I go back, I try to move on with the work. The surroundings still look a little bit ugly
