Hi there fellow traveller, I am André, the Product Manager of Myboracayguide.com. I don’t usually blog but this time I needed to ask the My Boracay Guide team in charge of the blog to let me give my testimonial as a recent convert to to growing group of lovers of the Philippines!
Being a Millennial (Born in the 80’s) I’m also a fan of communicating via different means. Until the age of 20 that meant SMS + Snail Mail, today its a mix of several chat clients, Skype and.. most recently.. Instagram and almost purely image based communication (not a Snapchat fan though!).
