Shop 'til you drop in Region 5!

Every time I see the word "shopping" I automatically feel giddy and happy, so much that my wallpaper says "Keep Calm and Go Shopping" so I know I'll have a good time writing this post! :)

Whenever I go on a trip to a tourist destination, I make sure I leave with souvenirs with me. At least I have a concrete memorabilia from the place, not just pictures. Also, as a tourism major, I know how badly the locals need money from the tourists (hello, multiplier effect!)

When you hear the word "Bicol" you will most likely associate it with "Bicol Express", right? Or is it just me? Haha. Anyway, since Bicol is the land of the spicy (Yup, totally made that up!) they embraced their label and lived up to it even on souvenirs. If Baguio has the famous Barrel Man, Bicolanos have their Sili Key chains!

The South of the Southern Luzon

Sitting at the tip of Southern Luzon is the hometown of the braves, the fighters--the Oragons, as my late Lolo used to call it, being a true-blooded (and super proud) Bicolano that he is. So technically, I am 1/4 Bicolana (which I just realized now!). And since I haven't been to the Bicol Region, these series of blog posts will be my inspiration and guide when I finally earn $$$. Hello, bucketlist! =)
The largest island in the Philippines

Being the largest island in the Philippines, one does not simply go there unprepared! After our jack-en-poy, I ended up having the Southern Bicol Region as my topic. One of the basic things you have to know when traveling is the geographical location of the place you're going to. Is it mountainous? Do you have to bring your trek shoes and large backpack? Is it a haven for beautiful beaches? Gotta pack your sunblock and shades! Whatever it is, never spoil your stay by coming unprepared.
