Central Luzon and a Jeepney




Going through some photos from when I was at Unilever, I chanced upon this snapshot of a jeepney amidst the unending photo pile of supermarket shelves. I took this during the one time I went to Mariveles, Bataan. Quite the scenic drive, that was also the only place where I saw goggles and snorkels being sold at the public market!

At times, I find my thoughts turning back to my life in Central Luzon. Although I have never regretted my (fairly) recent life decision, I do miss the beauty and exquisiteness of the group of provinces that served as my home for a good part of a year. From the free feeling of Subic's lack of the usual city chaos to the urbanized mecca of culinary delights that is Pampanga, even to the homey rural atmosphere of Nueva Ecija - I feel like a part of me will always yearn for their familiarity.

Central Luzon, I am not through with you yet. I shall yet return, and paint your beauty for all the world (as it exists on my Facebook and Flickr accounts) to see.
