Bohol, Philippines (01/07/2017 - 01/09/2017)

After going back and forth to The Philippines multiple times a year for the past 3 years, we finally made it to a place other than Manila!

I have been fascinated by tarsiers, one of the smallest member of primate family, and had wanted to see them in person.  They are nocturnal, entirely carnivorous (insects), and their eyes are so large that they have to rotate their head as they've lose the ability to move within their sockets.  They were probably made famous by this Ze Frank YouTube video and I had to see them for myself.

Bohol also had a few other notable attractions including the Chocolate Hills (which unfortunately suffered a bit of a collapse due to a recent earthquake, and due to the wrong season, appeared more like matcha chocolate :)), some suspension bridges, nice rivers, and of course, amazing white sand beaches.


And a short video (sorry for the blurring - low light and raining)
