In the great words of The Strokes, “I’ll try anything once.” Save for the context of the song, through the years, that little piece of statement has become a personal mantra of sorts in going through life’s unexpected twists and turns.
Amazing Race Asia runners-up, TV hosts, and gutsy globetrotters Rovilson Fernandez and Marc Nelson star in our Adventure special, highlighting Albay, Bicol, where being outdoors is the norm That’s not to say recreational fun can be found only in one region; we also list other amazing alfresco activities in the Philippines, as well as dine and drink places for the daring offbeats. Meanwhile, April Cuenca inspires us to discover the Philippines unconventionally.

Try anything at least once and go over that edge and fly. Or fall face first. But if it happens to make a surprise believer out of you, then aren’t you glad you went out and did it?
