I had to check, since Luzon is irregularly-shaped, but yes. I am in the Northern half.

If we define the Tagalog language region as Central and Southern Luzon, then no, I am not in that region.

Yes, Ilocano is one of the languages spoken there.

Nope, not there (though it is a wonderful place to visit - you can drive around the sand dunes, see the mansions of our former President, and there's a UNESCO World Heritage Church in Paoay. Plus the Bangui windmills, and the lovely beaches of Pagudpud!)

Not there either, but you're right, it is beautiful! Love the Vigan delicacies (empanadas or meat pies, and longganisa - a type of sausage), and the old Spanish architecture. There's also a nearby (well, relatively) church that's overlooked - Nuestra Señora de la Asuncion in Santa Maria, about an hour or two south of Vigan. It's a beautiful red brick structure in the Baroque style.

I just wanted to take a minute and thank everyone for playing. This game was one of those that I mentally debated for quite some time. Honestly, I didn't expect it to succeed at all. I decided to try it anyway, and we recently passed the 1000 post mark. This thread reached that milestone even faster than the original "animal" thread, which might make this the fastest-to-locking thread ever.

Thanks to all of you geography afficianados for playing!

Nope, not in the Ilocos region. Look East or South, young man!

Recap:

I am in the northern half of Luzon Island in the Philippines.

I am in the Tagalog region (Central or Southern Luzon), but am not in Ilocos. I am not in Manila.

Note, Manila can refer to Manila City, the capital city; or Metro Manila, the capital region. I'm referring to the entire capital region here.

I am in a place where Ilocano is spoken (though it may not be the only language).

I am above sea level (which should narrow it down a bit).

Er, I hope the choice of country doesn't dissuade everyone besides Doctor One from guessing!

Here's a map to get you started: http://opmanong.ssc.hawaii.edu/filipino/republic.html
