Alaska in the Philippines
This place is called Barlig and its in Mountain Province(north of the Philippines). People from there call it "Alaska of the North". At first, I didn't want to believe it but when I went and stayed there. Boy!, it was really cold. People from there told me that sometimes, you see frost on the ground when its cold season. Cold seasons in the Philippines starts on "BER" months, thats from September onwards, but the coldest is inanuary and February. I think thats the same time they see frost.
This is the place where good potatoes really come from. Its a small community on top of the mountain surrounded by forest. This was when I get to appreciate why my sisters from london and US brought me some winter clothes(thanks sisters)
