We'll start with myself. I am from Santa Cruz, a town just south of Davao City, and otherwise known as the Investors' Haven of Davao del Sur because of so many big enterprises with situs here. My fiance in Corona, California was born and raised in Vigan, Ilocos Sur, the Spanish colonial pueblo that was originally named La Ciudad Fernandina by our Castilian founders, in honor of King Ferdinand of Spain.

How about you?

Chains do not hold a marriage together. It is threads, hundreds of tiny threads which sew people together through the years.

Hi everyone!

I'm so glad madami taga Visayas and Mindanao d2. I am originally from Tagum City, Davao. My parents live there. I am currently living here in Muntinlupa and having my job.

My husband was born in Anaheim, California but is now residing in Bakersfield, California. His parents are also here in the Philippines, in Pampanga. His parents are both missionaries and now running an orphanage there. This orphanage is being supported by good American people, too bad not many Filipinos know this yet.

My husband and I had our honeymoon in Subic. Subic is a nice place. We rented a motorcycle and rode everyday, everywhere. We didn't rent a car this time as my husband hates the traffic here.LOL :lol::D
