[@m06angel]

I'm glad Guiuan finally gets the chance to be highlighted as a surfing destination. My husband is from there, and we actually met during the Yolanda relief operations. The province has bounced a long way back from the devastation caused by the typhoon. It's their time to shine.

Aaaah ang sarap! Super ganda ng shots! Mas maganda pa to sa mga lifestyle shows on TV. 😅 Super talented naman ni Erwan marunong pa mag-surf!

[@dijarevalo4786]

My family is from Sulat, Eastern Samar. We actually stayed there on my 3rd grade. Thanks for this series it brings back lots of memories! Hi Erwan!!

[@dijarevalo4786]

Salukara was our favorite breakfast! It is being sold by someone who roams the village while shouting "Salukara! Salukara'". It was kind of our alarm clock back then. Then for merienda, we have Sarungsong which is kind of like a puto or bibingka with buko strips inside. It's so delicious i hope you got to try it ♥️
