Bohol Is Hands Down Better Than Boracay

Just don't forget to include in your itinerary Balicasag Island, and you'll know what we mean.

Do not forget to allocate some budget to dive or snorkel in this area.

Balai Isabel, Batangas

Tons of places South are popping up, and being prepped-up as "Team Building" places. One new place is Balai Isabel, along Taal lake. You can reach it via Tagaytay, then the a la Baguio roads going to Talisay. Ot another way is along Batangas Star Tollway... I forgot the exit, but it says to Talisay in the exit sign.

But there's also a mini obstacle precisely built for team activities. A plus also is the unlimited kapeng barako, and the conference rooms, big for 40.

But most important, as always, the food...

Wait til I get me that telescopic lens...
