Welcome to the Philippines!

Months one and two were spent in Westernized countries. We had “white fellas” all around us, lights, hot water showers, English, toilet paper, clean water, etc. Month three, however, we have entered a whole new world for some of us. Now that I am in Asia I have been looking back over the past two months. Thinking about the experiences I have had; the memories that I will keep with me forever. So here it is; my review of my first two months on the World Race.
