Puerto Princesa in Palawan is great place for scuba diving. There is possible to see very small macro creatures, but also big ones. Even whale sharks. Here are some highlights of my underwater adventures in Puerto Princesa. Enjoy!
Palawan is well-known of beautiful beaches and islands, but there is also rich marine life.
Manila, Philippines. Manila in Philippines is not the first place, if you think about the supercars. There are anyway lot of real car guys. Every Sunday mornings Manila Sports Cars Club has a meeting in Burgos Circle in Metro-Manila. This place was on the corner of our home, so I used to visit there also often.
If you live or visit in Manila and want to see cars like Ferrari, Lamborghini, Porsche and other exotics, Burgos Circle is the place where to visit.

Lot of interesting and also expensive models, which are not so common.
Tornio, Finland. Winter in Finland is cold and the coldest day of the year is usually about -40C. This means rivers and lakes are frozen. Some people anyway want to go swimming outside.

I have tried out ice swimming twice and let's say it's quite...refreshing.
Kemi, Finland. Every winter it's possible to visit a gigantic SnowCastle in Kemi City. SnowCastle includes world's largest SnowRestaurant with beautiful ice-sculptures where are seats more than 200 people. There is also SnowHotel, which is something amazing. SnowCastle includes also SnowChapel.
The SnowCastle in Kemi is usually open from the end of January to begining of April.

Interesting to see what kind of will be new SnowCastle for season 2017.
Puerto Princesa, Philippines. This time something totally different. Palawan Island in Philippines has voted the best island in the world few times. I have spent in Palawan about 9 months and most of the time in Puerto Princesa, which is capital city of the Palawan province.

Here is Northern Finland days are getting colder and last days have been already subzero days. At the moment temperature is -12C, so it means the river has already frozen. This photo I took two days a go on Sunday.

One interesting point of the photo. I took this photo at 14:45, but sun was already very low. Today two day later sunrise was 8:44AM and sunset was already at 3:29PM, so sun is above horizon only 6h 45min.
This just a interesting example how focal length effect to background of the photo. Here in the photo train bridge is on the front and windmills on the background are quite far from the bridge. Windmills look colossal.
