Join me on a ride to Bayambang, Philippines! Today’s mission was simple: visit my friend Dave, an American expat, to see how his new Filipino-style bungalow is coming along.

Things didn't exactly go to plan. Google Maps decided to take me on a "scenic route" through dirt roads and endless corn fields. I was officially lost until a group of local kids stepped in to lead the way!

Once we finally arrived, Dave gave us an inside look at the progress of his house construction. If you've ever wondered what it's like to build a home in the province, you don't want to miss this tour.
