Putting the "union" in La Union

‍


Mia Sebastian of Flotsam and Jetsam Hostel and Kiddo Cosio of El Union, in La Union share their experience growing a community in a place they love. As part of GRID Magazine’s 11 People Who Are Changing the Way We Travel, the pair reveals the moment that convinced them to stay beachside.

“Whether by accident or by design—or perhaps by some unspoken agreement—the development in La Union has been thoughtful and slow, remaining sensitive to the locals and to the spirit of the place.”

Making Sense of the City

Performance artist (and famed tour guide) Carlos Celdran has led many to rediscover the wonders of Manila. In GRID Magazine’s list of 11 People Who Are Changing the Way We Travel, he talks to us about confronting and figuring out the beast that is the capitol of the Philippines.

APEC week has ruffled more than a few feathers for the strain it put on an already overburdened metro, but performance artist (and famed tour guide) CARLOS CELDRAN reminds us that we play an integral part in confronting – and making peace with – the beast that is Metro Manila.
