I’m spending my last few days of my Big Fat Asian Adventure with a local Filipino family at their village house in Mindolo near Puerto Galera. Thanks to my friend Trevor I have this amazing chance to live and observe local village life. The village is hidden in the jungle but is right by the road, and it’s continently located very close to White Beach. Everybody in the village seem to be related and the whole extended family likes to hang out together at grandparents house (where I’m staying). The main house is made out of concrete so it’s a bit cooler and there’s the main kitchen and tv. Other buildings are made of bamboo and straw. I sleep at my friend’s unfinished bamboo house in my sweet camping hammock from REI. The stars at night are incredible!!! We’ve been eating fry fish and rice for every meal! Oh and crabs and lobsters. It’s a very simple life, and the local people are very laid back and kind. And so hospitable! I spent my Sunday having picnic at the local beach, then hanging out with friends at White Beach, and now eating corn on the cob while watching urban Filipino interpretation of Robin Hood on the TV (the show is called Robin Dude haha) with the fam. Life is good. Picture was taken by Anna Corcino. -- source link
