An Epitome of A Frustrated Musician Astronaut

To all the great dads in the world, Happy Father’s Day!

Hi. These are photos from a gift giving event spearheaded by my lolo and his group in Papaac, Camiling, Tarlac. They gave our Aeta ‘brothers’ some goods, food supplies and school materials for the Aeta children. If you also do wish to help/contribute, please don’t hesitate to drop off a message! :)

Back from a 3-day Kalinga experience!

Ever since I saw the Yellow Adventures’ post about the 94-year-old legendary tattoo artist Fang-Od (Whang-Od), I’ve been dying to meet her. So I told my friends about this obsession and fortunately we all agreed on going to Kalinga as soon as our schedules fit.

Basically our first stop was at Tabuk which is a 12-hour-ride from Manila.

Our exact destination is at Buscalan, Tinglayan so after arriving at Tabuk, we rode a bus going to Bontoc. According to our guide, the only way to get to Buscalan is to ride the 7AM jeepney passing by the barangay of Mar-O. Since we arrived late noon at Tinglayan, we had the rest of the day to explore and to find a place to stay.

Along the way, we met kind strangers— ate Audrey and Kuya Ryan— who also have intentions of visiting Fang-Od the following morning. The five of us decided to stay together in the nearby Riverside Inn (literally riverside).

We had the chance to taste Kalinga’s rice coffee (the best!!!) and their native dish, Pinekpekan.

The following morning was actually the longest day of our trip. From Mar-O, we had to trek for almost 2 and a half hours (5km) just to get to Buscalan. (Malayo talaga ang lalakarin pero sulit naman kasi maraming magagandang tanawin.) =))))

This is what I love about my 3-year-roommate Niki— besides being funny and fun-to-be-with, she’s always just a text away. I’ve got to admit, I only have a few friends in the university but I’m very glad to be blessed with the super cool ones. :)
