the rural tale

I’m not really from the province. But I actually spent more than ten years enjoying the rural life. And that ten years include my visit to the place I first call home.

We decided to live in the city after my mom found a job there. On the other hand, my dad embarked to work abroad. So I was left under the care of my aunts. My childhood was pretty simple. I go to school, play with my neighbor and eat sweet candies.

After three years, my dad came back. And that’s when the whole family moved to the province. It was literally what a province looked like: mountain view, trees all around, and few people.

Fast forward to 2008, I’m done with my studies and came back to the city for work. However, it’s a bit different now. I got the taste of the real world. I work to earn my own money. But aside from that, I get to meet new people and learn new things.

And now, with this blog, let me share to you the anecdotes of my everyday life here in the city. This is the narrative of my journey of rediscovering the urban life.
