Carving out a message in Boracay is a super fun activity for people during their island stay. Most messages are devoted to birthdays and usually simply “loving Boracay” but one night while we were on our Chinese New Year vacation I chose a different message. Each night right in front of our hotel as the sun began to set, we would watch these Young, entrepreneurial men stack up the fine white sand and then carve messages out asking for money any time there a photo is taken. I thought why not! Carving out “Kremb de la Kremb” was the cheapest $10 advertisement I’ll ever pay for. It was so fun to watch people stop, read it, read it aloud, and then sometimes pose for their own “Kremb de la Kremb” photo!
This is the artisan right here. He can’t be more than 16 years of age. Sweet young man, and he and his friends are very smart!
*FOREWARNING: Even though I’m back to work in Hong Kong with the drizzly winter rains, this week will be filled with more Boracay beauty of beach pics starting tomorrow with one last installment of Poncho Tuesday taken on the beach! I know–ponchos on the beach? Just you wait…
