| Location: Puerto Princessa, Palawan, Philippines |
Ulagan Bay, with 17% of all the mangroves in the Philippines, rests under our airliner’s wing as we approach Puerto Princesa. Isla Rita, Mayor Hagedorn’s undeveloped ancestral island, is the long skinny jewel in the fore of the Bay, with great paddling in every direction.
Instead of building a concrete Ego-mansion, Hagedorn actually removed a house to return the island to its pristine state. |
