Welcome to The Philippines! A land of happy people and an affordable tourist destination. It is the second largest archipelago in the world and also has the most perfectly shaped volcano: Mayon. Have you heard of Balut? Well, it’s a snack that is sold only in the darker hours of the day so people don’t see what they are eating. How about that for a curiosity! In contrast, Balut is a common thing to eat and Merryl recommended that it is a MUST TRY thing while visiting The Philippines. Find out why The Philippines is known as both the Smiling Country and the Singing Nation. All this and more on Episode 9 of the Curious Pavel Podcast Sessions.
