About This Blog
Flight chronicles of the backpacker Tutubi, with travelogues, pictures/photos/videos, travel guides, independent and honest reviews, recommended resorts and hotels (including inns, guesthouses, pension houses, lodges, hostels, condotels, bed and breakfast and other cheap accommodations), commuting guides, routes (sometimes street maps and GPS coordinates/waypoints) and driving directions to answer "how to get there" questions, information and tips on tourism, budget travel and living in Philippines, Exotic Asia and beyond!

Backpacking, independent travel, and flashpacking are cheaper than the "cheapest package tours" and promotional offers around but you can also use travel information for family vacations, even romantic honeymoon destinations.

More than the usual tourist spots and "places to see," this blog advocates heritage conservation, environmental protection, and history awareness for Filipinos, foreigners, and ex-pats wishing to explore Paradise Philippines and Exotic Asia!

Disaster Tourism: Latest Mayon Volcano Explosion

Call it Disaster Tourism, the latest craze in Philippine Tourism, as the brewing explosion of Mayon Volcano is now attracting foreign tourists who wanted to see an exploding volcano up close and personal.


Latest Mayon Volcano Explosion Videos on YouTube:





Being the adventurous and curious type, Tutubi also wanted to see for himself the majestic Mayon Volcano exploding but doesn't have the time and resources to go there as well as personal reasons holding him back.

For those who are in Legazpi City, the best view of Mayon Volcano might be on Lignon Hill near Legazpi Airport.

Philippine Military is there to secure the lava flow paths to ensure a zero-casualty explosion but there are always the pasaway types who ignore safety warnings and endanger the lives of others who come to their rescue.

I will only visit this place again during peace time na. Mahirap na kasi makipagsapalaran...

Merry Christmas and a Prosperous New Year to you and family. Sorry ngayon lang nakadalaw. I was offline for eleven days during my vacation in the province and now I'm too busy to cope with work that escalated in connection with the mall activities. I see you had several entries for the month of December. Babalikan ko na lang mga iyan later...
