		<description>hindi pa ako naka punta sa olaniban pero balut island is my birth place. marami pang ibang magandang tanawin sa balut island na napuntahan ko na yong malapit lang sa amin, kasi hindi safe magpupunta sa malayo kong wala lang sanang masasamang loob sa balut matagal na sanang dinadayo ng mga tourista at mga taga gensan na mahilig sa nature trip, magbabad sa beach at diving. I promise my self to go to olaniban next year for my vacation in the phils. I can&#039;t wait to visit my relatives and friends in balut island.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;a href=&#039;#comment-1959&#039; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Originally Posted By Annabelle Schneider&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I was surprised to see the islands from someone else&#039;s camera. I can just imagine how you truly enjoy the visit. I am sure that while you were there you realized how powerful nature was, not only because of her beauty but more because you are at her mercy. This island in particular seem so enchanted. Like you, we could not get our outrigger as close as we wanted...we had to approach the shores so carefully...almost with deference. Any moment we had that feeling that the waves could just hit us so forcefully to the corals causing injury. And yet the waters seem so calm and clear...the skies so blue and a gentle breeze caressing your cheeks... As that feeling exists so was the feeling of deep respect surfaced. I was once there too and considered it my best kept secret. Not anymore now. I am from Glan and i am quite spoiled by our nature in Socksargen. So spoiled that there&#039;s only very few natural spots in the world left that can impress me.&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Hi annabelle!  Nobody ever described that Olaniban feeling more beautifully than you just did.  You may have left this enchanted island but it never leaves you.... beckoning, whispering and inviting you to come back and embrace its mysterious beauty once again.

Thanks a lot for your response and welcome to the Bariles Republic! :) &lt;/b&gt;</description>

Ever considered to work for Discovery Travel - you get paid to travel too! You are getting good at stuff like that. Am truly enjoying your updates of Gensan on your blog! Sorry I took so long before leaving a comment - have been bz right up to my neck!

Thanks for the beautiful update on this wonderful island! A surely not-to-be-missed if I every get to Gensan one day! Keeping my fingers crossed! Raymond has been there before, now&#039;s my turn yah!

Keep up the great job Vel! Love you!&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Michelle!  Finally, your first message (and hopefully not the last) all the way from Ipoh, Malaysia!

Welcome to Bariles Republic!  We really are blessed to have such a beautiful city in a beautiful island.  Raymond, when he was here almost 3 years ago had the time of his life with so much of nature to enjoy.

Do plan your trip now that the budget airlines are still trying to outdo each other in giving the best deals! 

We will all be waiting for you michelle.... including all the COMMENTERS here...hehehe!

Ciao!  &lt;/b&gt;</description>
