5 Reasons Why 2022 is the Year to Travel Local

Right now, you’d rather stay at home with all the travel restrictions. But it doesn’t hurt to make plans for future trips. If you are dreaming of a vacation, why not just stay in the country? Here are 5 reasons why you should travel locally in Metro Manila this 2022:

1. It’s the safer option

There is a lot of uncertainty right now and you don’t want the inconvenience of being stuck in a place where you don’t know anything about. It will definitely be less of a hassle to simply stay within the country.

2. You’ll help out local businesses

It’s no secret that businesses are suffering due to the lockdown and with foreigners not coming in, our tourism is taking a blow, too. You can definitely help out hotels, restaurants, souvenir shops, and people whose livelihoods rely on tourism.

3. It’s cheaper

The international plane tickets alone can take a huge chunk of your travel budget. In the Philippines, you can find affordable and budget-friendly options from accommodation and dining to entertainment and nightlife. 

4. There’s so much to see and do in the country

With over 7,000 islands, you really have an abundant option of places to go to in the country. Even if you plan on just sticking to land travel, there’s plenty to see and do in Luzon!

5. Staycations can be surprising

Maybe you’re still a little jittery about leaving the city, not to worry. Visiting or revisiting cities in Metro Manila can actually land you to hidden gems. It could be anything from a one-of-a-kind shop to a new restaurant or even a unique hotel!

Not many people know that Makati city’s very own Kalayaan Avenue is home to this luxury and spa hotel! I’M Hotel is definitely a building that stands out with its very own unique and vibrant infinity pool.
