El Nido Palawan Miniloc Resort
Work, curiosity and leisure trigger the Hollywood Hunk Zac Efron to visit the Philippines. He is once a one time was Hollywood's highest paid teenage actor during his High School Musical days.
Mindoro Island and lovely beaches of the Philippines was always a music in his ears when he's young and his Dad once served under the Merchant Marines and often visited in Mindoro Island.
Recently, the "Bourne Legacy" movie-full scenes were also taken in the Philippines with the Paradise of El Nido Palawan of many fantastic islands as the farewell and escape of the Bourne.
World curiosity of El Nido Palawan is on the rise after a French reality show were taken in El Nido making Palawan as one of the most famed and admired paradise as seen in the France TV and North African TV who were following the show.
Before news of his endorsement with local retail giant Penshoppe broke out, Zac Efron's connection to the Philippines with his former "High School Musical" sweetheart, Vanessa Hudgens, is of Filipino descent is already vibrant.
But now, we've actually discovered that the teen heartthrob-turned-Hollywood hunk has more ties to our beautiful, sunny shores than we'd originally thought. Get this: he's actually very, very excited about his trip. And no, that's not just lip service.
Coming straight from the international premiere of his latest movie, "The Paperboy," Zac is set to appear in this year's Penshoppe Fan Conference on Sept. 29, at the SM Mall of Asia Arena. Gates open at 6PM.
Curiosity about the Philippines
It will be Zac's first time in the Philippines. Initially, he wasn't so keen about doing endorsements. But when he heard that Penshoppe is a Filipino brand, he immediately said yes.
"It's the perfect, perfect excuse to finally visit. I can't take my mind off that country," he was reported to have said.
Why? Because his father, Dave Efron, used to serve under the Merchant Marines and often visited the Philippines in the past (Mindoro in particular). He's also flying in with Zac for the trip.
"Zac has always had this curiosity and/or mystique over the Philippines since he was a kid," said Dave. "The beaches there are lovely and we can't wait to come!"
"Sometimes my father will disappear for weeks 'cause he's enjoying the Philippines so much. So I've always wanted to come and visit," added Zac.
When asked what he'd like to do if he could go on a holiday in the country, Zac had a ready answer.
"I want to see the beaches. I want to swim with the whale sharks, go on a mountain adventure, try the food like adobo and balut, and just hang with my friends over there. Oh, and I also want to learn how to waterski!"
Zac plans to stay for almost a week in the country. He is said to be taking some personal time off to go on the ultimate Philippine holiday of his dreams prior to the FanCon. Do we hear "butanding" calling?
His parting words: "Can't wait to see you guys! I heard I'll meet around 12,000 or more people at the FanCon. I'll see you all soon."
