Enter coupon code 8miles for an extra 4 months free at surfshark.deals/8miles 🦈 My brother and his wife are visiting our island home of Siargao and we were so excited to know their first impressions. But they got the dark side of Siargao instead, I wish my family didn't have to see this on their first few days here.
    We did manage to make up for the drama with some beautiful surfing experiences and beach paradise moments though.

    This is not the“dark side“. It happens in many other places in the world, including the UK.
    So I take this as clickbait.
    However, the drone shots were outstanding with that surf beach and this clear water- the really bright side of Siargao instead!

    Poppy is such a pretty dog. She really is and she is so grateful that you gave her a chance at a better life. You can tell that by the way she is with you, greets you, wants to be with you and not like a separation anxiety situation. She is one amazing doggo. Well done Poppy. I'm so sorry for the damage to your vehicle. Guess no matter where you are in the world, accidents happen but it is more than annoying when it's someone who is drunk because they made a terrible choice to be stupid. I'm not going to apologize for that comment because it really is beyond stupidity that someone chooses to drink and drive. Having said that, you are all safe and no one was harmed. ONe thing about the Philippines, this is how and why people are so resourceful because we don't have the luxury of having insurance. At least for your average Pinoy. So the upside is, everything can be fixed and esepcially when it comes to small appliances. People get things fixed as opposed to throwing it away and buying a new one. Anyhow, take care and here's to more and safe adventures. I hope that incident didn't put off your brother and his partner.

Was fortunate to have a gorgeous view when we lived in Hawaii and during weekend trips to Pangasinan on Luzon as a kid. We only live about an hour from the beach now here in Florida but man do I miss those ocean views from my window. Would love to visit that area of the Philippines one day! 🫶🏼🌊💕
