Puerto Princesa
I'm now in Puerto Princesa, Palawan. Often this place is called our country's last frontier.
It is probably the only place in the Philippines that is increasing in forest cover. Every year, thousands of trees are planted during the Pista Y Ang Kagueban or Feast of the Forest, which is happening a couple of weeks from now.
