Sagada Hanging Coffins
A burial practice traditionally done by the poeple of Sagada for 2000 years. The coffins are carved by the elderly before they die. In order to fit the remains some bones have to be broken. Sagada people prefer to be buried by the cliffs than underground. Advance happy Halloween everyone!

A Child at Loboc
The people of Loboc in Bohol are known for their musicality. As a child, they are encouraged to hone their musical talents. It is said that each person in Loboc knows how to play at least 1 musical instrument and carry a tune. I found this child playing with her Havana along with other children in the Loboc River.
