Siargao Island is one of the most amazing places I have ever been. It is an out-of-the-way place that sits on the edge of the Pacific, the edge of the Philippines and feels like the edge of the world. Beautiful beaches and hundreds of islands. The weather changes so quickly, that every day has several seasons. However, the people are predictably kind and friendly. |  |

THE PROOF!!!! Although these last three photos are not the clearest, they all show Mayon Volcano which sits about 350 miles to the north in the Bicol region of Luzon. AMAZING! From the peak of Mt. Apo we could see half way across the country to the nation's next highest mountain. |
