Updates of the Last Few Days

I've got to say, I'm really enjoying calling this place home. As hot, stick and humid as it is, and my sudden becoming of a sweaty frizz ball, it really is a beautiful place to be living. The beach is directly opposite the resort, so eating breakfast overlooking the sea, and going to sleep hearing the waves crashing  at night is absolute bliss.

Here is the gorgeous view from the bar and restaurant balcony, overlooking the pool, cottages and ocean


 Also, it was here in Dauin that my motorbike virginity was taken. It was only a ten minute ride, but it was pretty sweet. I seemed to be the only one in the city wearing a helmet. It's insane here. Nobody wears a helmet, and everyone drives like four year olds high on some kind of cocktail concoction f LSD and blue smarties.



Aside from motorbike rides, I've made some lovely new friends here too. Because it's a pretty busy dive resort, there are always new guests coming and going, so the influx of new amigos never seems to come to a hault.

 
A couple of nights ago I went with my new friends to an Italian restaurant. It was rather expensive, but totally worth it. After a day of diving non-stop, my body was ready for such epic pizza.


Everyone here at Liquid are taking such good care of me. Here are three of the fabulous bar and restaurant staff. They're all one big happy family and I get to be a part of it. Every day so far has been such a scream with them. Of all the corners of the Earth I've been lucky enough to visit, I genuinely believe that Filipinos are the kindest, happiest, generous and most welcoming of all humans.
