Bacolod to Reconnect with Kram

(Jan 26-30, 2024) Restless in my pursuit to find a place to settle down to, I embarked on an inter-island travel in search of that resonance. With Kram willing to host me in Bacolod, I made it my first stop. Kram is good people to me and I looked forward to reconnect with him...more »»

January Chronicles: Bandilaan Meditation

(January 2024) 2024 started out with synchronicities and insight. I talked about an event that happened in Manila to Dindi and realized it was exactly on the same date 15 years ago.
