@raksi It is nice to travel the cordillera area. I am in the city of Pines but I haven't been to Sagada. I had planned to visit the place. However, I had cancelled the travel because of high incidence of Dengue cases in the area.

@hereandthere we were just two who went there. I am with a friend (French) and it's our first time to go there that time. Not a lot of locals knew about the place and how to get there unlike now. I knew about the place because of the book of my friend 'Lonely Planet Philippines' I am just like a tourist in my own homeland. But now, I can be a tourist guide there! lol I love the place. I actually want to live there. If it's not for my family, I would have gone up to the mountains...

If it is around my city, that's OK. If it is a foreign country, I may not take such a risk. As I am afraid to get lost since I am very poor in direction. I like asking others when I can't find my way.

@youless Safety is what we need to consider. In my personal opinion, I will not travel if the place is not safe.

I can go to a place that is not too touristy provided there´s a lodge with a good bed and a decent bathroom.

true! as long as there's a safe place to rest, eat and clean up.

@marguicha When I was a volunteer before, I also considered the safety and a place that is clean enough without acquiring sickness.

Enjoyment is the main motive to me, so wherever I go to visit a place it doesn't matter that the place is touristy or not touristy.

I do like mountains since I am living in this kind of place. I am versatile and choose to go to beautiful scenery.

The places that tourists do not visit are places that normal people go to that they will not have to deal with tourists.
