At GRID, we have always believed that the pretty destinations are secondary to the various reasons we travel. In Issue 10, we honor the people who have enabled us to experience the Philippines in different and better ways with a series of short films
The GRID Expedition I is a 9-day series of our team blazing a trail through northern Luzon, home to some of the Philippines’ most diverse terrains, lead by Jp Alipio and his team of adventurers, mountain runners, and conservation advocates.
This issue is an exploration of various paths and terrains, including the incredible story of mountaineer Carina Dayondon, the first Filipina to climb the highest mountain in every continent.
From the folk healers of Siquijor to the bakwit artisans of Lanao del Sur, we explore the stories and destinations that exist comfortably where nobody is looking.
