The beautiful Philippine sunset

"The sunset over Manila Bay is rightly famous. I have sometimes watched this beautiful sight from a simple floating restaurant near the Manila Hotel....

The beauty of the Philippine Islands is incredible and many resorts are available to enable the traveller to take it all in. Whether you are interested in 400-year-old Spanish churches or scuba diving on some of the best coral reefs in the world, it is all here.

Add to that the charm of the Filipinos, who even in adversity can be found smiling; the beauty of the women (one of whom I am very happily married to); and the relatively low cost of living and you realize why you often hear expats say, "another day in paradise"."- excerpt from an article by Anthony Lee
