The Philippine archipelago comprises 7,107 islands, of which only about 2,000 are inhabited. They are clustered into the three major island groups of Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao. I have always wanted to travel around the world, but most especially here in my country. I've been to many beautiful places in Luzon recently and decades ago in Bukidnon, but I've never been in the Visayas. It is currently in my wish list - a vacation tour in Boracay. I hope it'll be sooner than later.
