Vigan, a Unesco World Heritage site.

Summer is slowly slipping away. A few more weeks and the days will get shorter and the nights longer. The leaves would fall and the trees will become bare. The air will be misty and then snow will begin to pour. A blast of earthy colors will appear before the scenery turns into dreary grey.

Before you know it, the Winter spell is back.

For those who wish to have another round of sunshine, beaches and fun-filled adventures that can only be done in Summer, it’s time to pack the bags and be ready to go. It’s that time of the year again – Winter Escapade Time.

Participants to the 4th Winter Escapade will explore the centuries-old town of Vigan, a Unesco World Heritage site; enjoy the pristine white sand beaches of Pagudpud in Ilocos Norte; and bask in the warmth of one of the world’s most beautiful islands – Coron in Palawan.

Winter Escapade 4 will be launched on Aug. 11, 5:30 p.m., at the Philippine Consulate General in Toronto. Contact Janet Hizon at culturalofficer@philcongen-toronto.com
