Glimpses of My Father's Barrio

Photography by Ryan Macalandag

These are some of the images I took when I last went home to this little barrio in the mountains of Danao, Bohol, Philippines. My father is from here and he was speaking at the elementary school's graduation ceremonies when we went.





First thing you can really notice when coming here are the kids running around playing. My earliest recollection of my first visit was when we went into this little barrio through a curvy, swervy, narrow heckuva road and out of nowhere pops out this little place crawling with children. The little critters were following the pick-up truck we were on. They didn't see motorized vehicles too often during those times.



That's my pop in the middle of the huddle with our lunch of fresh water crabs and shrimp.
