Ivan calls himself a travel freak, a frustrated historian, and a heritage activist. He forgot to add a passionate advocate for all things to do with the Philippines and surrounding countries.
Ivan about Town documents this passion. The blog is full of fantastic photographs and travelogues about Ivan’s trips. Anyone considering a visit to the Phillipines would be wise to wander through the archives and discover all the unique and interesting places worth visiting. Places that you might not find in a ordinary travel guide. For example, did you know about the annual San Fernando Frog Festival or the Obando Fertility Rites?
It’s a journey worth taking. You’ll find Ivan with you every step of the way. You can re-live Ivan’s trips by boat, plane and train, and learn about the area's ecotourism, heritage conservation, and politics and society.
Ivan, by the way, is not in the least bit camera shy. In fact, one of the great things about this travel blog is that Ivan has turned many of the photos into postcards and has placed himself smack dab in the middle - so you know that he really can say ‘been there, done that.’
