Trip to Vigan

Vigan.. a colonial town north of Manila
We are currently planning on a Filipino national event and as a possible location i went to check out Vigan. The Government invited me to come and check it out and so i flew up there for 3Days.
After a direct flight to Vigan.. wt probably the smallest airport, i check into the Vigan Plaza Hotel, very nice and cozy, old colonial house.






The whole trip was organized by Dalan and Dani who are currently opening a new kiteschool up there.
My first impression after 2month on the island was  ahhhhh nice, lovely little town, horse carriages, street full of life at night and all very affordable.
Since i like good food i had to try the Empenadas, they are the real deal up there... wish we had just one like those back in Boracay.
The Kitesport... first of all we went to Puro Beach, a perfect flat water offshore spot located about 20min drive from Vigan city.
The new kiteschool called vigankitecenter.com will set up here.




The second spot was a 30minute drive further up north on the mainland side of Poro Island, this spot is perfect for everyone that like waves. There were some nice small waves rolling in when i was there, but the children of revolution from Stance kite mag had some sick waves just two days earlier.

So i really hope we will get all the funds and sponsors to get up there and do an amazing event wt them.
