First Time in Philippines! Best Country in SE Asia?

Welcome to my full journey through the Philippines and honestly… I fell in love🇵🇭❤️
Before coming here, I didn’t know what to expect, but this country surprised me in the best possible way.

Manila was modern, clean, green and full of character, way more vibrant than I imagined🌆
The impressive malls, friendly people and hidden corners made it an exciting (and underrated) capital to explore.

Then I headed to Cebu City, exploring a more local side, food markets, historical landmarks and everyday life🌿 It was a meaningful stop that showed me just how rich the history of the Philippines truly is.

And finally… Siargao. Pure paradise🏝️ Crystal-clear water, palm-lined roads, incredible surf culture and sunsets that felt unreal 🌅 It wasn’t just beautiful and soo peaceful.

The Philippines isn’t on many travellers’ radars… but maybe it should be.
I hope this video shows you why.

Think this destination belongs on your bucket list?✨✈️
