Henri @ Seven Commandos & Snake Island, El Nido

Perfect beach sunset @ Seven Commandos Beach by Henri Saarenpaa

Hi mommies & bff's! As you know, Philippines is a capital tourist destination especially when it comes to beaches.  El Nido tops the list.  

Here's a Chat blog as tourist testimonial I wanna share to everyone and feature a Finnish guy friend, Henri Saarenpaa whom I met in my Hundred Island adventure.  He's a solo traveler who happens to fall in love with Philippines.  

Here's he's first-hand experience with Seven Commando's beach, El Nido.

TESTIMONIAL ITINERARY

10th  

6 am to 10 am  -  Took the van from Port Baton to El Nido.  Fare 600 per foreigner/pax

13th to 17th  -  spent the day in a private beach in El Nido. Spent 4 days basking and playing under the sun and sand like swinging on a rope like this.

Their stop was the 7 Commandos Beach.  This is one of the most fascinating islands of El Nido.

Well, as you see on the background, this is the best spot for tourists to just lie down, do sun basking and be burned. Chillax!  Don't think about anything. Let the waters of the sea relax your mind and body.

Me:  "I hope it did with you, Henri"
Henri:  "Yeah!"

Me:  "How have you been?" 

Henri:  "All good! Enjoying life at the moment…hahaha. But I hate flies!”

15th

5 pm - 11 pm  - The gang took the 5-6 hours van back to Puerto Princesa on the 15th. I guess, it’s more comfy for them there.

They were enjoying the night till morning drinking. 

Henri: "Now we’re drinking some liquor so no worries. These guys are crazzyyyy…” 

That sounds like what?  You can guess.

Even at 10:06 am, Henri was still awake. Imagine that sleep tolerance.  I guess when you have fun with your friends time does not matter, huh?!   

"Me:  How long can you stay awake? Dare to do the no-sleep challenge? Don’t expect me to join…nevermind. Hahaha.

Henri:  “I need more sleep…hahaha”

Me: “Thank you for sharing your wonderful happy personality…”  
Henri:  (a humble laughter) “hahaha…thank you!"
