Travel Photos & Musings By Nathan W. Allen
Of all the incredible places I’ve explored in the Philippines, people might be surprised to learn that Romblon Island almost tops the list. After all, you don’t hear too much about this place. Perhaps it’s because it’s overshadowed by it’s massively popular (and crowded) neighbor Boracay. Well let my Romblon travel guide show you this...
So much fun to play around with! Here’s my TG-3 underwater camera review… It Felt Like Christmas When This Camera Arrived in the Mail! I did a lot of research on underwater cameras before purchasing the TG-3. People had great things to say about it, but I wasn’t prepared for just how much fun it...
If true paradise is what you’re after, look no further than El Nido in the Philippines – there’s a reason why I chose it as my first blog post! The following is my El Nido travel guide, though it has been some time since I was there. Have something to add? Let me know… By...
People often talk about a “hidden paradise”, but it is usually just an expression. In the case of Bonbon Beach, it’s literally true. There is a tiny jungle trail to access it, and if you don’t know exactly where it is, you could easily drive by the entire beach – without even knowing it’s there....
A tiny plane to a tiny island with BIG volcanoes, waterfalls, hot springs, and perfect white sand beaches = one unforgettable trip. A death-march up a volcano in the sun, a purple stubbed-toe and bee sting to-the-neck weren’t even enough to ruin such a beautiful place for me! Here’s my Camiguin Island travel guide… I...
Riding the island of Samar was much more of an adventure than I thought it would be. First of all, it’s huge. Second, it’s not so developed…and while it’s great to get off the well-worn tourist path, the roads are pretty rough. Third, it was the start of the rainy season. However, the landscapes are...
I wrote a Diapila Beach review…funny, because I didn’t even know this place existed. I love it! Words & Photos By Nathan Allen The Ride of a Lifetime: Chapter 5 On the ride from Long Beach, San Vicente to stunning El Nido, I encountered some beautiful scenery. These are my favorite kinds of days for...
Welcome to my Thaipusam photos & review. These images were captured in Singapore, during this colorful, yearly festival. Words & Photos By Nathan Allen Legend states that the Hindu mother goddess gave a spear to Murugan, the god of war. With this spear, she helped him destroy an evil demon. Once a year on...
First of all, I never imagined my love of music would take me around the world. If so, it probably would have been through performing and touring, certainly not by running an audio mastering business. Well, life is full of surprises. This is how I funded the travel adventures of a lifetime. Words &...
Ah, the small towns and villages of the Philippines–a place where you can slow down, decompress…and breathe some fresh, clean air. Where the worries of hectic, modern life seem to fade from view, and sharing a home-cooked meal with friends and family becomes your #1 priority. Enjoy my Philippine provinces photos… By Nathan Allen After...
