The joy of travel is discovering new and exciting places and having new and exciting experiences. Living as an expat every day becomes fresh with new possibility. While I was living in Manila, I wanted to see everything I possibly could, and I want to share it with you. And so, in this part of SaltyBug you will find my recommendations, and stories of exciting adventures. I don’t let the traffic get me down.
KILUS stands for ‘Kababaihang Iisa ang Layuning Umunlad ang Sambayanan’. This translates as ‘women united in one goal to promote/develop a better society. Isn’t that great. This is a foundation that creates livelihoods through a recycling program.
My friend asked me to show her my side of town. I was so excited to show off my two favourite places. UP Town Center and CommonRoom. Come along and see for yourself.
I took the children to Pililla Wind Farm. Quiet refuge complete with fresh air and a cool breeze. Lovely.
Last Adventure Saturday we found ourselves at a Bee Farm. It was so fascinating!
Food tours are such a brilliant way to learn about the history of an area. Last Adventure Saturday FB and I explored the food delights of China Town.
Friday night was an eye opener for me. I realised I had become so complacent in my new life I had almost missed out on this gorgeous evening out.
Saturday was so much fun. We went off to explore two favourite markets of mine. The Katipunan Weekend Market and the Greenhills Weekend Market. If you are in Manila, check them out.
The other week I took the children to the Philippine Aerospace Museum, located in Pasay. It was an interesting day of discovery, most notably in the old helicopter the children could play in. I didn’t think I’d get them out of it!
