Camp Sabros

I was able to go to Camp Sabros last 2009.  Camp Sabros is located in Sitio Barras, Kapatagan, Digos, Davao del Sur. How to get there is easy.  A bus ride from Davao City for about 2 to 3 hours to Digos. We didn't have a private car.  We rented motorcycle to go there from Digos proper but not to the Camp itself because it was difficult at the time since the earth was very soft. Some of us went on foot but I chose the horseback ride going uphill to add to the thrill of the zipline.  The zipline was 850 meters and doing that was a leap for me since I have some fears of heights but no fear for sightseeing. The experience was really breathtaking seeing those trees below.  And another breathtaking scene is the site of mount Apo nearby. You should try Camp Sabros' experience!

Moved on to Marvelous Life

I am the youngest in the family of eight which includes my parents.  I spent my early childhood in two different places, Getafe and Tagbilaran City.  In Getafe we lived in a big wooden 2-storey house and we "own" one room with a stairway that would lead to the basement which serves as our kitchen.  It was a dirty kitchen and there was no flooring. And there was a big dog named War who would sit on the uppermost staircase looking down at us while we ate and beside War was a big orange cat named Oblada. I have several cousins in that big house two boys about my age and they would come and we would play on weekends. And there were also younger siblings of my father whom I have known to be his half-brothers and half-sisters. I also have fond memories of Lola Dora my father's step mother. She was a stern woman, hard-working and whenever I have fever I remember her giving a massage with a peculiar touch of relief. I learned to weave mat in that house she was so skilled on that.

Marvelous Life

Most people define the word marvelous as "wonderful, unusual, almost a miracle".  But what really makes up a marvelous life?  In the last few years of my corporate world, I desired to live a life like this.  I searched around how it is how other people live a marvelous life.  Some described it to have lots of money or making money, others stay out of debts and others for them is living in a well-manicured high-end residential house, condo or in high rise places to feel that you are at the top looking down at creations. Others simply have to travel like having breakfast in Hong Kong, dinner in Sydney.  I have not lived in a condo yet, neither in skyscraper nor make lots of money; I have been to Hong Kong some time ago but not to Sydney yet.  But to live in a real marvelous life is not limited to the things I just mentioned.   I was an idealistic yuppie hard working, obedient and respectful.  And I thought that a marvelous life is hard to achieve.  To earn it you have to wo

It is situated on top of a hill overlooking the city.  To enter the shrine one has to wear skirt if you are a female and long pants if you are a male as it is considered a place of pilgrim.  But even if you are not dressed appropriately the staff at the gate will provide you with skirts to wear sort of piece of cloth for covering. Drinking water is free. Silence should be observed as you enter the premises.
