hmm dried mangoes from cebu make great "pasalubong" ( homecoming treats) and the mangoes of guimaras.. well they are the sweetest in the world =)


hmm.. but one thing i like being Filipino other than the great food.. is the diversity of dialects.. like in Negros. It's just one island but the western area (Negros Occidental) speaks mostly Hiligaynon, while the eastern area speaks mostly Cebuano.

Region 6 or the Western Visayas is a motley of dialects and accents - Aklanon in Aklan, Karay-a in Capiz and Antique, and Hiligaynon in the other provinces.

Then of course there are the amazing beaches in Palawan, Cebu and of course Boracay in Aklan. I want to visit the chocolate hills soon in Bohol. But my cousin says that Bohol isn't that pretty these days.
