Really? Thanks @Alfonso Felipe - we had no idea. Here in the US we have island in Florida called the Dry Tortugas - which means the dry turtles. But I like the name Apo better ! :) Thanks for watching friend
You guys check out Batanes way North. I live the middle islands and different sceneries too but I saw in tourism way north...big stones, gorgeous beach and nobody there except a few that took the video. I'm glad we discovered Philippines through your videos and I'm a local just stay in my island never travelled the next island. I went all over the US but not in my own country. Be safe guys.
@Vzb Tjl - We really wanted to go to Batanes but only had 16 days in the Philippines during our three month journey. We will 100000% be back because the Philippines was one of our absolute favorite places ever. Next time we come through we'll reach out and see if we can meet up! Thanks for watching and for having us in your country, come back to the US to visit us soon!
+Finding Livingstone Lol! 16 days not enough. I saw video also of Catanduanes gorgeous beach & surfing. Iloilo is where my hometown close to Boracay, I live in Chicago now but someday I will retire there. Your video heals our homesickness. Glad you enjoy the natural sceneries of Philippines. Still so many unfortunate ones there but I'm glad the gov't open up there tourism. We locals don't do vac like you do guys cuz we struggle to find means and put food in our mouth. Big gap between rich and poor there but hey just enjoy the beauty of our country. Glad also that US took many of us and gave us jobs to send money to our loved ones . God bless.
+Finding Livingstone Thanks, FYI Phil gov't don't say it to the people but you know every move they do they still ask the US gov't for approval. Even our flag color was based in the US color. Catholic religion is Spain's influence on us but English language and many others are Americans. I feel bad they stop Spanish language in our school but I was surprised your 2nd language in the US is Spanish. Filipinos have a bit of those. Our local dialects have some Spanish in it.
+Finding Livingstone I was hoping the same that nxt time if u can cameback to Philippines u can able to visit Batanes coz that place looks so beautiful

cool video!!remind us souvenirs!!
I miss the life in the province, simple & no pollution.
You should check out Isla Gigantes in the Iloilo Province.
Thanks Des - I keep hearing about this area, sounds like we need to check it out! Appreciate the feedback!
Awesome video, thanks for sharing. By the way, APO means sea turtles in visaya or tagalog w/c is the native tongue of the Philippines.
