How to go to Boracay

Posted by nina under Boracay, Philippines

With summer coming, people are no doubt looking forward to the holidays they’d spend out of town with friends and family. Where better to spend your summer vacation than in Boracay? (Well, there’s Palawan, Bohol and Puerto Galera, but Boracay is Boracay!) I’ve spent summer in Boracay before, arriving a week before Easter, and leaving shortly after. It was a wonderful two weeks of sun, sea and sand, and it was amazing seeing how the place change and get heavily populated as people come in by the plane and boat load to swim all day and party all night.

Nina Fuentes | Lovin' ManilaNina, going through quarterlife crisis, decided to stop talking about traveling and actually start traveling. Starting with a solo weekend trip to Cebu to a backpacking trip in Thailand and Singapore, she finally made it out of Asia and into Australia. After spending close to six months down under, she's happily settled in Manila (for now), intent to explore the best things the Philippines has to offer.
