My life of travelling

Im william Coughlin, from the north west of the united Kingdom, and i am married to a filipina girl. In 1992, i began travelling the world to may exotic countries, which includes austrilia. The first time i went on aeroplane was to malta for a weeks vaction in the month of may. After returning from malta in may 1994, i became very obcessed with flying and also going to different places over the world. In 1993, i went down under for two weeks to sydney, were i went to see the opera house, and the other sights of the city. In 1997, i also visited sydney again, for a short time were i went over to the island of fiji for a week. Since leaving fiji, i have been to many other exotic destinations all over the world. This includes many of the pacific isalnds, america, and the list goes on very much. In this list i have had some very bad experiences of travelling as well as good ones as well. My worst experience of travelling was in late 1999 when i was in the philippines, were i was in manila. After arriving at the swagamn hotel in manila, whilst having a drink of beer, there was suddenly an explosion which caused the whole of the hotel to shake vey much. It was not till a few seconds later, that i had relised what had happened. When the bomb went off it really shoke the whole of the building and causing all the glass in the building next door to smash, and also the noise was was very loud. After the explosion i went outside the building and beldam was unfolding. There was many cars, ambulances, police, and bomb squads appearing. After a few minutes the World television appeared outside the hotel. I was interviewed by the TV company. What was quite remarkable is that on the sunday morning back in the UK, many of my friends were having there breakfast, when i appeared on the UK televison were many people were very surprised to see me on there TV sets. That evening i went to my friends house in Manila after the explosion, and wondered to myself how close to death i escaped. If it was not for the buliding it might of been a different story. To this day now i always remember about this incident about how close to death i was. And i pray to god, on how this he saved me from death. There are times when you never know why things happen or dont happen. Another bad expereince of the philippines was in late 2006, when i headed off to the area of mindanao with a girl i met. We stayed there around to go and see her family there in the jungle. After returuning back to angeles city from minadano, i became ill during the evening before i was due to fly back to the UK. The next morning i had to call a doctor from nearby who had to do many tests on me after i had fallen ill. That morning i had to cancel my return ticket back to england as in was very poorly. That evening i had to be rushed into the hospital, after i became very shakey and had many fits as well. Sometthing i learnt from travelling is to never to fall in ill overseas, as the hospitals are not like home. This was to be proved correct. On arrival at the hosptial i was asked if i wanted private or condtions of the locals, and i decided to have a private room. That evening i was transfered to the private room, were the rooms are very basic indeed. During this week i was in the hospital, i experienced very poor food indeed a it was a third world country. But the nurses looked after me so much and could not fault them. The downside to being in hospital was that of the doctor, who we found out was a real crook who tried to corrupt me with the very putting in very big bills for all the medicine, and all the other expenses. It was not for all my friends there in the philippines it could of been much worse. The problem i had there in the hospital was that they did not except the insurance company to them direct the bills. So i had to pay very big amounts of money to be able to leave the hospital when i am better. The good thing that haapened to me after getting better, was that i was given a buisness class seat on the airline to get me home. The experience was very good indeed.But theres a saying in life never get sick overseas as you dont know what will happen to you. Something i may say that were ever in the world you may go, you always find problems of corruption and other things that happen in your life. I always enjoy my travelling, but i still encounter new things along the way, so have fun in what you do, and be safe always. I would like to hear some of your stories.

My history

I love to explore different various things and travel around the world. I am really an adventurer, as I been traveling all over Asian countries and different countries as well. Among all Asia, the Philippines is MY favorite country that i used to visit many times already. I experienced and encountered different kindS of people, meet a lot of acquaintances and see the wonders of the world. Also I already faced a lots of circumstances and love to take risks in life.

Unfortunately, my life is unpredictable....because long time ago, my life was closed to death when I was having my lunch at Swagman Hotel with some friends, that was before New Years Eve. When the tranquility was pierced by a massive blast, several people from the hotel were injured when the bomb begin to explode. Consequently, I was going back to england safely but still I'm stunned with my experience. During the said blast, I was shaking like a leaf but beyond with my experienced the incidents will not stop me from coming back to Philippines. So as to date almost 18 times I used to visit, and obviously I finally found someone, who makes my heartbeat fast and falling in love with. Well, definitely its lovable wife. Its really my pleasure to have her in my life. I know I meet a lot of girls before her, but to all the girls that I've known, shes the most beautiful girl in my eyes. Totally, she's so wonderful and very different from all my girl friends. As far as I noticed, she's the best among the rest. Shes the most beautiful thing that ever happened in my life. Especially, when we walked in the aisle and faced in the alter to share our vows together. It was my unforgettable moment in my life. Im so grateful to have her. I love you my dearest..

Despite the fact, from my said experienced it wont let me stop of coming back to the PI, where all my dremas come true, in fact, I will be having my vacation in PI soon.

The day we Meet

The day that I meet my wife at MACTAN AIRPORT in CEBU PHILIPPINES last June 2007. My heart began to beat faster and faster like as fast as racing which never slowed down when I came out at the arrivals area and we first meet with each other. I personally meet her sister too and I remember traveling by a van to their beloved home where I meet her lovely family. Then that afternoon, we had a trip up to the golf course were we took pictures and also had a ride on the motor bike on the windy roads admiring the pictures overviews. From that day on, I really began falling in love with her so much. Their was something about her that I could not explain in words which I could not describe. It appeared that I just never wanted to leave her in my life after meeting her and her family. I knew being with her for such a short time will lasted forever and became my lifetime partner. I decided to stay in her house for a couple of months after the wedding. My proof of commitment is that I really love her so much and wanted to spend my life with her till the day i die. I love you so much my dear sweetypie...

All I wanted...

I've been all over the world into many exotic places like the Philippines. Among all Asia, the country that I admired most is the Philippines. Because Philippines is not only a wonderful country but also the lovely and gorgeous faces of a filipina. Aside from that, Philippines is my most unforgettable place based on my experienced and my home of paradise where all my dreams come true. One of my ambition in life, is to marry a filipina girl as I find them more lovable, honest, caring and more attractive. For the grueling years, I finally found my soul mate which Ive waited so long to have a girl in my life. Now, the searched is over when I meet my lovely wife in Cebu, Philippines. Its really a destiny for me when I found her, shes the girl in my dreams and the most beautiful girl I ever had. I've never been so happy in my life till I found my lovely wife, shes the most beautiful thing that happened to me. She is the most precious wife and I'll keep her forever and ever, till death do us part..

Trip to London

On the eighteenth day of August 2008, i took an overnight bus from Liverpool to London Victoria bus station were the weather was cold, and i could not sleep very much, and we arrived very early on the morning of the 19th. I headed to my accommodation at the Earls court youth hotel, were I met loads of people from all over the world. On my travels around London, I saw many famous sights like Big Ben at night. Also I went to the Queens home, Buckingham palace, were the changing of the guard was taking place. I took my DVD camcorder with me, and made a video of the sights I went to, it was really nice few days away from my home town many miles away. I have made some videos of various trips I have made.

Anyway, I'm heading to the Philippines in mid October to see my wife, and go traveling. Im excited to see her very soon.
