A few weeks ago my friend Ollie came over from the UK and we decided to take a trip to Mintel near Davao City, infact it may be technically part of Davao City.

A very enjoyable day was had walking and talking with the locals and this video captures part of that feeling.

    i thought the body snatchers reference was a funniest part, then that street sign showed up. i wouldn’t want that as my home address.
