Hey congrats Ivan!
Great photos, writing and layout!
I want in on this. Hehehe.
I will promote this with my colleagues.
I am wondering when you will come out the Southbound Travel Guide
great job batch! thanks for including my photos
Thanks for sending me the maiden issue of the NorthBound Magazine. Yes, we have been starting to rediscover the north. Your mag will be a very good guide on our next travel. My husband usually takes his students for Baguio for his Science, Technology and Society class and we have been bring them to the north so "touristic" places - more places to discover and enjoy. Good luck
Hey "Great Idea" Ivan!!!
Plus the downloadable for FREE...Nice Touch!!!
Wow really "great idea"...
Teddy of JUAN Philippines Magazine
Thanks Teddy! We needed something sustainable with the funds allotted, not a one-time deal. Plus we wanted to make sure the lay-out was up to our standards. We're very happy with the finished product.
Wow galing!!!ANg galing mo manggaya!!!Did you thought about all of these great ideas or you just like stealing other peoples ideas.Great job, i mean whoever really thought it up....
To the bitter guy who said we copied his idea, you don't have the monopoly of ideas. This is the first free guide for North Philippines. So which did we copy? Besides, is coming out with a free magazine your right and yours alone? This is a free market where people look for the best products.
If you had a good product to begin with, we could have said yes to your proposal. The magazine was in the pipeline even before you approached us. Besides, we're doing this to promote North Philippines.
If you are really doing what you're doing for the benefit of Philippine tourism, you should be happy that other people are doing their share. Unless you're simply in it for the money and are bitter because we suddenly became competition in your eyes.
I believe that the more travel guides on the Philippines, the better.
unable to download the magazine =( there seems to be a problem with the link?
Hello,
where to buy northbound magazine? no availbale in NBS..pls help? ty
It's given for free in tourism establishments around North Philippines while supplies last. Best bet to look for one are the NLEX Customer Service Centers
wow,the anonymous person sounds like an arshole haha, but, hey, im going to copy you, northbound mag, hahahaha
Thanks for coming up with this free travel guide. I first saw a copy of your mag when our family stayed at Montemar Beach, Bataan in summer 2009 but it was not supposed to be taken out of the room. Since then, I always asked around everytime we go north until I came upon your Issue 5 given free at Mountain Woods Subic last Sat., May 8, 2010. More power and hope you also include suggestions for overnight accomodations with corresponding room rates and reviews in your next issues.
