I was born in Laguna, Philippines but grew up in Davao City. Horror, folklore, ghost stories, and all the Story-Telling-A-Lie about anything became part of my culture because the TV Station doesn't exist yet until around 1960.. I have a good memory about those stories. About seven years ago I started writing and drawing since there is nothing else to do and the TV is always 'The Good Guys against the Bad Guys' which I really hate. Maybe if I can put together a lot of the stories about fairies, dwarfs, giants, ghost etc. I may be able to put in on TV or movie series, that I am working on very hard, and BLOGIT is one of my ticket.
In Davao City we speak three languages, First the Cebuano or Visayan language which is about ten (10%) Spanish, Second is Tagalog or Filipino Language and Third the English Language. Although ENGLISH is the official language of all schools and businesses in the Philippines, it is not easy (for me) when you have to write a story or a novel. Philippines is the third largest ENGLISH speaking country in the world though ENGLISH it is not it's National Language, it is TAGALOG (literal translation - taga-ilog = which means "someone who lives near a river".
Me and my family migrated to Sydney, Australia about 17 years ago. I love travelling and I have been in USA for four times and once in Toronto, Canada. I really love Paris. I want to go back to Rome and London, but the city I love most is NEW YORK CITY. A lot of my friends are there too. Thank You.
