Philippines

Do you like your Christmas cold and cosy? In Asia, we do the yuletide celebrations a little... differently.

These destinations are quite popular during the end of the year, so be sure to plan and book your trip ahead of time!

We think you need to see it for yourself, but here are just six of our favourite things (aside from the pristine white sands).

We spoke to Jaime Dempsey. the host of Ride N' Seek, about the joys and challenges of travelling on a bike and what it means for women.

Your essential list to start off with if you're only in the metropolis for a short stay.
