i have been collecting travel magazines, from the local ones to the ones published globally. yet i always look up to this magazine entitled Get Lost!. it is published quarterly in Australia. and because i really like it, i emailed the editor last year to extend my deep appreciation for making such a very cool magazine for travelers who's always on the go.
after a few months, the magazine's editor Tamara Caddy emailed me and informed me that my letter was published on issue 19 of Get Lost! magazine. i was surprised! but it didn't end there, because of that, i too received a book entitled A Year of Festivals by the Lonely Planet.
so just last week, i received a copy of the magazine, where my letter was published, the book, and a special note from Tamara. i am then, extending my gratitude to the Get Lost! team for this. check out their website at www.getlostmag.com.i'll make a review of the book A Year of Festivals on a separate post.
note: this magazine already featured the Philippines in its previous issues. but it is not yet being distributed in the Philippines, so I just get my copies through a friend in Australia and i will be subscribing soon.

hello! ang iyong blog ay nominado sa ikatlong linggo ng damuhan blog awards. bumisita lamang sa damuhan.blogspot.com at kunin ang iyong nominee badge. salamat ^^
*clap clap clap* cool naman ni dong! =)
go ahead and make your own GET LOST travel adventure, hehe. or better yet, publish your blog posts.
The idea of getting lost somewhere really excites me. Parang nakakakaba because wala ka sa comfort zone mo pero masaya din kasi you get to experience something new. Basta wala lang criminal elements eh ok ako na mawala din.
Congrats sa magazine dom. I think it's high time you produce one.
That's wonderful. Congratulations! It's great that they sent you a copy of it.
Congratulations on the freebies...
hello kuya!!! musta na? :)
wow galing ni Dom. Congrats! Lalo kang maisnpired sa paogcollect ng travel mag niyan. at it's worth to.

Congratulations to you Dongho. You deserved it. I think they should published your travel stories too. :)
Good for you!
I hope there is also a get lost this summer in Philippines. I strongly recommend Biliran. I just their falls and beaches. It is comparable to Boracay.
Congratulation!!!
Pretty lot of magazine collection at home I guess.

Congrats Dong! ganda sigurong mag na iyan. title pa lang nakakacurious nang basahin
the "get lost" title of the magazine really decribes you dong, i remember your story in baguio/la trinidad where you just rode the jeepney and ask the driver to bring you to the last pit stop of the trip.really amazing!
wow! galing! gustong gusto ko na meron akong freebies. hehe.
sana ifeature nila ulit ang pinas! yung anawangin! hehe.
that's really a pleasant surprise, dong :-) congratulations!

>hi cza, thanks!
>hi jeanny, thanks!
>nanay belen, ganda talaga. marami na rin akong issues nabili at maganda talaga. not the typical travel magazine.
>theonoski, that's the first time i did that. ill be doing it again. soon!
>ax, im sure they'll feature the philippines again. anawangin is a good option. saya nga pag may freebies.
>jules, thanks!

dong, congtraz! galing mo talaga.
>hi eunice, not sure. because in the philippines there's a lot to choose from cheap ones to really luxurious ones. all of which still offers the beautiful tropical beaches.
if you get to choose the philippines, we'd love to be of help.
>photo cache, you should grab one and im sure you'll be tempted to subscribe. you'll just love it. writers are really cool.
>jess, thanks!

>rayts, sure!hoping to see you soon.
>bryan, salamat. hindi pa naman. simpleng letter lang yon kaya nagulat din ako na pinublish nila.
dalhin ko to pag nagkita tayo ulit para makita mo rin tong magazine.
saya talaga pag masubukan mong pumunta sa isang lugar na wala kang kaalam alam. subukan mo. ingat lang.
>jasper, hahaha... astig yon pag nangyari yon. wala naman tong ginawa ko, simpleng letter lang naman.
>richard, salamat. buti na lang at nagustuhan mo yung book. para nga talaga sa iyo yan.

pag nangyari yon ok pero mas astig pag ikaw din at mga kwela mong kwento ang ma publish.
>hi ellesig, let's hope that they'll start disributing it here.
>eliment, wala naman akong ginawang extraordinary doon. kung mababasa mo ang letter napakasimple lang. natuwa lang siguro sila dahil galing sa pinas.
