About this Travel Blog!

This travel blog is more of a personal travel journal than blog. To find out more please read my about section.
I also cover the following in between travel blog updates:

- Food from the country I am traveling at that time: in between travel journals

- Editorials and commentary articles on topics that affect me on this journey: once / twice per month

Travel Blog Content

The travel stories section is where additional content from this journal eventually goes to under travelogues; along with insightful articles into a countries real life in "seeing the unseen"

Travel Blog Journals are not always live as they happen. I want to take my time in writing what's happening to me, and this journey as a whole. I also don't have access to 24/7 internet. And, when I do it's not all about writing here. Twitter is a good place to see my live updates.

To process photos, find internet, upload and write is costly. I do it whenever I can, and as fast as I can. Please that into account.

If you have met me en route, please don't take offense if your name is not mentioned in my blog/journal. As mentioned it started off as a personal journal and will hopefully continue on like that. I change names and don't make personal references as I've seen people take offense in the past. If it happens here, then I will have to take the journal/blog off public viewing.

Some Blog Facts

Throughout the website you will find some travel resources I've compiled, reviews, articles on inspiring travelers, people and places. I hope they can provide some insight, help and hopefully inspiration for anyone out there either looking to travel, or looking for something else. If not, then maybe this place where I hang my photographs can at least be enjoyed!

You might find this Travel Blog a little different to most. Searching for home like this is not a picnic. Nor a wild travel party. Follow along and read along by all means. Take it for whatever you think. Sometimes I get the time to write things out well, some times not. Other times I am just penning my thoughts.
It's simply my journal on traveling the world in search of home. If you read through not just this blog but the whole site maybe some points I mention will touch base with you. Other points maybe not, hopefully they won't be too out of the norm not to at least offer some insight into my journey.

Rather unfortunately with no support network this journal/blog will also serve notice if anything should ever happen to me. If no one see's an entry for over a month, then I'm either dead, or kidnapped. (without prior info stating the opposite). If anyone's reading this you might like to contact the police in the country I was last in! I joke not.

Sizzling Prawns from the Philippines

Sizzling Prawns in the Philippines

Famous for it’s seafood there’s no escaping the delights of fresh prawns in the Philippines. They come in different sizes. Large, largest and mini lobster sized. In fact the largest Prawns I’ve ever seen have been from the Philippines. And, they are good.

Though sometimes made into adobo, they are usually cooked on a bbq or fried. Some night market stalls will serve them on a sizzling hot plate for extra pizazz.

The smaller the the prawn the cheaper it costs. Personally I go for the jumbo sized bbg prawns, there’s a lot of meat on them so only a few are needed.
