My family and I once lived in Davao City for some seven years and there are so many good things I love about the place. For one, I really love the many varieties of durians in Davao that are available almost the whole year round. My wife and I loved to eat this fruit which for some “smells like hell” haha! Not for us. In so far as my wife and I are concerned, this fruit “tastes like heaven” haha!

In this photo, my lovely wife and I dropped by at Calinan to buy some sweet pomelos and durians. Calinan is known to produce some of the best durians in Davao. And the pomelos are really great too. Davao’s pomelos are the best I’ve tasted so far. We were on our way to Cagayan de Oro from Davao City on this trip sometime in 2003.
