Hir na Me! Wer na u?

Sarangani Highlands is nestled on a hilltop with a breathtaking view of the Sarangani Bay. But we went to Sarangani Highlands for a dinner so I wasn’t able to see the Saranga Bay from the Highlands.

Food is really great. I like the sisig. I know, it’s nhttp://hirna.me/wp-admin/post-new.phpot authentic, just like the way Kapampangans do their version, but the Sarangani Highlands sisig is so creamy. Masarap! And the bangus is divine!

Watch out for my detailed post about Sarangani Highlands in BYAHILO soon!

Finally! Nakarating na ako sa dream destination ko! Lake Sebu, South Cotabato! Lake Sebu is known as the homeland of the T’Boli tribe. The tribe is known for creating the T’nalak weave where its deisgn is interpreted from the tribespeople’s dreams.

Lake Sebu’s cool climate is a perfect for those who want a weekend getaway. It’s pleasantly cool, just like in Baguio. The landscape is just so breathtaking. I styaed here for a night, but I swear I’d be back here soon!

When I announced to friends that I’m off to Lake Sebu some suggested that I try the Zipline at the seven falls. Hmmm I know the seven falls is part of my itinerary but the zipline, lemme check my tapang power.

Check out in my BYAHILO travel blog soon and find out if I actually did the zipline!

When Sinjin and I planned to go to Lake Sebu some friends suggested that we go to “Cow head”. I really thought they were referring to the animal. But I was surprised to see a signage in Lake Sebu that reads “COWHED”. Cowhed pala is an acronym. Hindi ulo ng baka!

Cowhed is really a must-visit when in Lake Sebu. the Tboli women here weaves the T’nalak fabric. they also do beadwork for assorted accessories llike bracelets, necklaces, earrings, etc. They are also known for their excellent skill in brass making.

Hir na Me sa General Santos City! GenSan, as it is fondly called by the locals is also known as the Tuna Caiptal of the Philippines. Aside from GenSan, other exciting destinations will also be explored like Gumasa, in Glan Sarangani and Lake Sebu in South Cotabato. This is my first time to set foot in SOCCSKSARGEN region and really happy to have the province of Sarangani as the 42nd province I have been to.

And what a better way to start the SOCCSKSARGEN Tour than have a photo op at the Office of the City Mayor. Too bad, I wasn’t able to meet GenSan’s new Mayor, Darlene Antonino-Custodio. What out for my SOCCSKSARGEN series in BYAHILO soon!
