Rice Terraces of the Philippines

Now that I’m back from my last
great adventure I’ve got a number of people not only hounding me to divulge every dirty detail on the events, but they
also want to know about my next big trip. My friends and family knowing me far too well and figured I must have
something up my sleeve for the coming months and for the most part they are correct. Just like all the other
day-dreamers in the world I’m dreaming of an Asian or African adventure later this year, but only time will tell. One
thing I know for sure is I’ll want to soak in more of the outdoors and nature this go round.

In my
wanderlust online clicking tonight I discovered a collection of photos from Bernard Billedo that makes me want to book travel to the
Philippines immediately. It’s no secret I’ve been dying to go for ages, but these beautiful shots of the Batad Rice
Terraces and Banga-an Village of Banaue, Philippines put the
icing on the cake. The rice terraces have been a work in progress for the last 3,000 years
and is a continuous project by men in the area. Without babbling too much, if you’re home on this Friday evening like
me make sure you give them a looksie and perhaps we’ll plan travel together.
