Swimming with Giant Whales in Oslob, Cebu, Philippines

WHERE  IN THE WORLD SHOULD YOU BE NEXT SUMMER? 

And why should you start booking now?

Whale shark watching in Tan-awan, Oslob, Cebu has become one of world's best nature encounters. It's true of its name since Tan-awan  roots from the word "Tan-aw" meaning to watch or to look.

At the present, there are resorts and touring websites you can avail services from to make sure you get the best excursion. Wee hours is the operative word of some sorts for this adventure so you'd likely not want to just go eyeball-ing these acquiescent sea giants on your first date. You'd also want to take the privilege to go swimming with them. Though the local government implements rules to protect and conserve them and there are few etiquette which you have to practice once there. 

Tukis or Butanding, as the natives call it, are more visible in the shores when the temperature is up and the water is clear. You better book your flights before tourists flock during Philippine summer on the second quarter of next year (April- June). 

Take a look at Matt-Tinik and Matt-Takaw Adventures to get a picture of how you'd likely want to arrange your itinerary. 

Gentle giants has probably been banned in cyber space for reason of overuse but you can swear by the remote chances of you becoming the human version of Marlin and Dory. As the phrase suggest, they are, gentle giants.

Reason Why the Paris Metro is Better than Yours

What better idea fascinates you about Paris? 

Climbing up the Eiffel Tower, feasting on your first share of  boulangerie? Or probably using compact applications like Kemtro, if you still haven't heard of that, while wearing French tongue to confirm directions or to simply put the language into a fair practice. 

Side trips to the Paris metro, however are usually missed by most travelers to include in their Parisian adventures. You might as well know that aside from the free Paris attractions, there is something about their metro which you also don't most likely see in your local streets. 

                                                          Paris, Île-de-France.

Listening to that in a Paris subway seems better than boring your eyes on the passersby simply because you forgot where to go next. At least if you want to make most of your travel you should not waste a tad bit of your time and get wise to what it's worth. C'est la vie!
