We hired a Jeepney to take ~10 of us through Banaue to the mountain ridge overlooking Batad village. We hiked as close as we could get to Batad and ate Lunch. We learned about the Ifugao culture through a native I met, named Pedro. We decided not to continue hiking into Batad since we knew we would have to hike back up to our starting point. The hike was a very wonderful experience and it's one of things you have to experience for yourself. With the fog, mud, climbing we had to do it wa...

Acted as Secretariat during the 1st National Womens Summit...There were 300 Womens participant from Regions 1 to CARAGA Region. From Banaue we went the next day to SAGADA. We went to Lumiang burial cave where wood coffins are laid inside the chamber. They believe that when they laid to rest in an open area with open air, they area closer to God. The coffins are short, because they are laid in fetal position, because of the belief of reincarnation. A big part of the coffins fell off deep in th...

Sara's birthday. Woke up at six o'clock, still on the bus, hoping to be in Banuae by now. Stumbled out of the bus and had some fresh fruits for an impromptu breakfast. We were in a small village called Santa Fe, as the bus had broken down, beyond repair. After having waited 2 hours for the "rescue bus" we were told that this bus too had broken down... A friendly Filipino lady with her three grand children offered to bring us along with them, an offer which we gladly accepted. First we got on ...

Got up early and headed straight for the jeepney stand. Got in a jeepney and reserved the best seats with our bags. I asked the driver what time the jeepney was leaving and he said 08.00, so we went to Alfredos for breakfast, as that was almost an hour later. Around 07.30, whilst we were having breakfast, I noticed through the window that someone was moving our bags around. I got out and started walking to the jeepney, half way across the little town square I saw the jeepney take off! Turns o...

... this? Life goes on no matter where you are. Traveling only proves the consistency of personality. I have always been an idealist. In a new land full of new wonders I find my old self. If you think traveling offers freedom. Its better said that it offers a closer look at oneself. Unfettered by the routine of daily life. I have no history here. I can show myself a hero or a tyrant in a moments time. No reputation breeds respect and patience for me. I am a grain of sand. Or better said, I ...

... of no event. I like that. You can't go anywhere in the United States without someone trying to run you off the land. Not even government land.
So here I am in a village of retired head hunters. They all smile. I walk around alone in the dark without fear. No harm no foul. I am sure you don't want to **** them off though. There must be a few ceremonial axes hanging above the mantles. So, you don't steal their stuff; you don't abuse their kids; you ...
... the mountain provinces taking in a volcano on route back to Manila.
I ended up extending my visa in Manila so that I would reach HK post the new iphone release date so in the end I did the same route again, only in reverse, as I liked it so much - so this entry and next captures both visits. Anway for now first stop Banaue. The first picture explains all apart from very cold uncomfortable overnight bus and meeting Rio in Banue a funny guy from Japan.
... as these two. They also offered to give us a ride down to the junction from the saddle in their jeepney. We accepted. After a rigorous, exhausting, tough hour and a half climb we finally reached the saddle. I don't think I've ever been this sweaty before. We had to wait about 45 minutes for the rest of the group to show up. Once they did, we took the jeepney down to the saddle. As soon as we got into the jeepney, the heavens opened up. It was a heavy downpour ...

... Nous avons prient l'autobus pendant 6 heures. Un panorama extraordinaire. Un peu de frousse avec ses ravins de plusieurs centaines de metres. Un chemin perpetuellement en epingle et nous avons fini sur un chemin de terre pour 2 heures longeant une riviere. Un vrai charme. L'autobus fesait un peu des sons bizarres mais elle s'est bien rendu et nous avec. Rejean ma dit qu ...
