KEEPING A JOURNAL $%&'()'*+,)'-."/01/ s Valentine’s Day approaches, we not only think about our loved ones, but also the places we love and the adventures we long for. e core of <strong>Balikbayan</strong> <strong>Magazine</strong> rests upon the love of a place and the admiration of a homeland. Each time we tour a new island, a new province, or a new city, we are astounded and fall in love once again with the beauty of the Philippines. is issue, we deeply fell in love with the island province of Marinduque, the unbelievable resort island of Bellarocca, and the distinct Filipino hospitality in the new 4-star deluxe hotel in Batangas, Hotel Ponteno. Last January, the Philippine Department of Tourism kicked o the New Year with an energizing campaign—“It’s more fun in the Philippines”, leading Filipinos, both young and old, to interpret the slogan in their own way. is widespread, personal interest in the new DOT campaign resulted in non-Filipinos to curiously wonder what makes the country such an attractive destination and why it is more fun in the Philippines. Be it exotic cuisine, magnicent beaches, or the exuberance of the people, there is no doubt that the 7,107 islands of the Philippines have so much to oer to the world. On the cover of our February-March 2012 issue is the picturesque island of Bellarocca Island Resort and Spa, an exclusive resort located in Marinduque, which is dubbed as the “Heart of the Philippines” not just for its location on the Philippine map but also because it’s a place where all good things stem from. Not only is it tting for the month of love, it’s also another example of the worldclass resorts found in the Philippines. Let the following pages be an ode to our country, this spectacular place we call home. And may each article bring to your heart a feeling of pure Filipino love.
