And in just a few minutes, we’re almost in THE PHILIPPINES!
We are still at 53,040 because I just entered my review numbers a few minutes ago. Been eagerly awaiting the arrival in the Philippines so here’s a fun fact:
Did you know it is the only country, apart from the Vatican City, where divorce is still illegal? Can you imagine not being able to get away from a relationship that no longer works (for whatever reason) or that you no longer want because it has been bad for you? Any idea why? See my theory below.

Summary

The Philippines is a predominantly Catholic country due to the 300+ years of colonization by Spain. Political parties know that priests are highly influential. Plus patriarchal society… you get the drift.
