PALAWAN
I choose the title of "MY LITTLE BIG DREAMS" because since i was young i want to go to Palawan, I still call this a dream because I don't see or been there yet since child. but I promise to my self that when the time comes I will put an end to this dream and go there, I choose Palawan because by just looking it on the picture I can feel that when I go there I will feel so relax, so happy and it's a place where i can escape all my problems and nothing to worry but the beauty of the place.
How to get there? Palawan can be reached within an hour and five minutes' flight from Manila to the capital city of Puerto Princesa or a 20-hour trip by sea. A choice of regular Philippine Airlines (PAL) or direct chartered flight can be made depending on the desired destination.
