Merry Christmas

My first Christmas overseas. Winter serves as reminder of the season. 6 deg celcius cold, foggy but no sign of snow. It's near Bethlehem but no  'belen' . Christmas spirit is inside one's heart , to remember Someone's birthday .

Little Barrio Site

In a barren desert, a tree is a luxury. It costs more here to nurture one tree while we take it for granted in Casiguran. You can find reverence and wanting for nature in an attempt to maintain fountains and well manicured trees in Riyadh. Casiguranins have found their own barrio site in Roma. Housings are secured by the shade of small trees. There is a canal that resembles a swamp. Casiguranins here have found a place to picnic and to morey. Bicol-Casiguranins are admirable for their love of Casiguran. It is our barrio site.

Sun.Star Cebu - Roperos: Presidential decision

Sun.Star Cebu - Roperos: Presidential decision: "In my younger days as a magazine writer in Manila, I had been assigned to cover typhoon disasters in Quezon province � it once was called Tayabas, and Aurora, if I remember right, was earlier called Casiguran. It was there in the late �50s when a flying sheet of galvanized roof beheaded a man trying to escape from his falling house. That the area has always been a playing field of strong winds and rains should already be accepted as a given. "
