From Manila's jeepneys and bamboo bikes to Catholic fiestas and family feasts, Martin explores the wonderful sights of the Philippines, including tribal burials, rice god rituals, shamans, and cuddly tarsier primates.
Martin travels to Guam to see the effect of invasive species on remote islands and discovers animals driven to the edge of extinction. In Palau, he learns about marine conservation and meets the endangered hawksbill turtle and the rare dugong.
