:: The Philippines
 

I was fortunate enough to spend two years working in the Philippines, and it quite literally changed my life, it was an experience being in such a fantastic place, a beautiful country, and with beautiful people. I am posting some photo's here based around the Philippines.

Some of these photographs were not taken by me, if any belong to you and you would prefer me not to display them please let me know and I will remove them.

 

Me (honest) at Mount Samat death march memorial

Another, more distant shot of the memorial cross at Mount Samat

Can't recall how many times I went through Mariveles Economic zone checkpoint (usually drunk on the way back)

A favourite eating spot , just along from the Marmont Hotel, Subic Garden restaurant was a pit stop before hitting the heights of Alongapo / Subic Bay

In Makati Greenbelt nestles the Prince of Wales pub, if you want to enjoy British hospitality, Roast beef and Darts, all with a Philippine flavour then this is the place, within eye shot of the New World Hotel

A sketch of Bataan peninsula, my home for two years...

 

The Mandarin Oriental, was my home for a few months, within easy walking distance of all the amenities in Makati

 

A typical Philippine market scene, this one in Cebu City

And of course we cannot go without mentioning the Philippine Traffic.......

....or the traditional Jeepney..........

....works of Art.
