Who doesn't love strawberries?!?! Those red, big, sweet strawberries are so irresistible!!

 Best place to find strawberries in the Philippines is in Baguio City. Its 5 hours drive from Manila by car. Cool place to stay especially on December. Lots of people go there just to relax because of the weather there.
