Over the years I've received many cards sent by Marie, most of them from Canada, where she lives, but this one is from her home country, the Philippines.
Boracay is the most iconic island in the Philippines.
The tranquil waters and famous white sands of Boracay are the main reasons why this tiny island in the Philippines’ Western Visayas region is a paradise getaway for both tourists and locals.

A traditional Paraw ride is a unique way to explore Boracay’s waters.
These double outrigger sailboats offer a serene experience, especially
at sunset.
The Paraw (also known as parao) is a traditional outrigger sailing boat from the Philippines. Locals believed the first boats were adopted from Borneo and Malay traders who frequently visited the Philippines.
Paraws are made with wood and bamboo. They come in different sizes and shapes, but the most common form is the double outrigger. It is a configuration that gives more stability and increased seating capacity.
Traditionally, paraw sailboats are mainly used for fishing and inter-island travel. However, today, paraws are commonly used for recreational trips such as island hopping and sunset tours. - in: https://happinessontheway.com
