In our first #OffTheGRID episode, we dive into the island paradise of Siargao, land of the endlessly-barreling Cloud 9 and home to a new breed of surfers from all over the globe who find it quite difficult to leave. Many of them have set up shop here, watching Siargao rapidly grow from a quiet surf town to a bustling tourist destination in just five short years. Its residents open up to us about its growing pains-impending dangers range from waste management to overcrowding-and how they’re fighting to keep their home as pleasant as when they first arrived.

#OffTheGRID is a new docu-series looking deeper into the issues behind our country's most popular destinations. Our host, Francisco Guerrero, sets the tone: “As travelers, we often talk about what we take home; we should also ask what we are leaving behind.”
Look out for the next episode on CNN Philippines.
Produced by Tripleshot Media Inc. & GRID Magazine.
