Kalinga: Reflections of an Ancient Way of Life

October 20, 2025 by Junfil OlarteLeave a Comment

The morning mist clung to the steep rice terraces as our jeepney wound its way through the mountain roads of Kalinga province. We had departed Tabuk City, the provincial capital, before dawn, aiming to reach the remote village of Buscalan by midday.

October 10, 2025 by Junfil OlarteLeave a Comment

Abra sits nestled between mountains and rivers, … [Read more...]

Vigan, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is one of the few places in the Philippines where … [Read more...]

Tarlac: The Heart of Central Luzon

June 20, 2025 by Junfil OlarteLeave a Comment

The morning sun cast long shadows across the sugarcane fields as I made my way north from Manila along the MacArthur Highway. Like many travelers before me, I had always seen Tarlac as a place to pass through – a mere waypoint on the journey to more famous destinations in the Philippines' northern reaches. But something made me stop this time, drawn by whispers of historic haciendas, sacred mountains, and a culture that blends the Kapampangan, … [Read more...]
