DAVE Bloustien's Beastly is a photo safari into the comical world of Africa. Spending a month holidaying on the continent, Bloustien, 31, describes his show at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival as part travel log, part a look into Africa's wildlife with a “little bit of ranting about political injustices" thrown in.

Going Safari? Almost!

Yes, it was a "despedida" for the Punta Fuego general manager and former Pearl Farm Beach Resort big boss, Xavi Gimeno, but expect to see this guy often in this tropical southern paradise every so often.

Quite a surprise, he decided to make Davao as his jump-off point to his new assignment. I rushed to Batangas just to see this guy before he leaves because he might not just make it back to Davao before moving.
Voila! He calls and decides to have a small gathering at his former "home", the Pearl Farm. That was "just like the old-times" get-together for a despedida.
