Episode description
Have you ever heard about something that only your country has?
For me, I have quite a long list for that but let me just choose one place to highlight.
It's Bohol! This place is known for the chocolate hills.
Hmmm. Sounds tasty right. You can imagine hundreds of hills made of chocolate as if you are in a chocolate factory. But that's impossible.
Some crazy questions I've heard about it is... Are these hills made of chocolate? Do they even taste or smell like chocolate?
Totally not.
It's called chocolate hills because its color is like chocolate.
Actually they are covered in green grass but the crazy thing is that these peculiar hills change their color from green to brown during the dry season, hence the name.
So it means, the color depends on the weather.
As a bonus, you will also have the chance to see in the same province, the cute but scary creatures named Tarsier.
This is a primate that has a form in the middle of lemurs and monkeys. It is too small and only measures around 3.5 inches, but it has a long tail that is twice longer than its body. It also has big eyes that's why it is also nocturnal. That's why tourists are advised to keep quite whenever they are visiting the sanctuary of tarsiers for they are also sensitive to noise. Moreover, their characteristic that will blow you away is that they are capable of turning their heads for nearly 180 degrees in each direction which allows them the ability to rotate their heads for almost 360 degrees. Sounds scary but astonishing at the same time. This species is now present in some Asian countries as well.
How about your country? What are the things that only you have?
In sharing that, don't forget to use these words:
1. PECULIAR - (adj) strange; odd or unusual
2. HENCE - (adv) that is the reason or explanation for
3. BLOW AWAY - impress someone greatly
Now, it's your time to impress us with the things that only you have.
