Lechon Manok, a Filipino Culinary Delight
Lechon Manok is a popular Filipino dish that translates to "roast chicken" in English. This dish is not just any ordinary roasted chicken; it is a culinary delight deeply embedded in Filipino culture and tradition, known for its savory and juicy flavor. The chicken is marinated in a blend of local spices and ingredients such as lemongrass, garlic, ginger, bay leaves, and soy sauce, which imparts a unique and aromatic flavor to the meat. It is then slowly roasted over charcoal, which gives it a smoky taste and a crispy skin that is highly prized among its aficionados.

Cathedral Falls, Kapatagan, Lanao del Norte
Cathedral Falls, Kapatagan, Lanao del Norte
Cathedral Falls is a remarkable natural wonder located in the municipality of Kapatagan, which is situated in the province of Lanao del Norte in the Philippines. This stunning waterfall not only serves as a breathtaking attraction for nature lovers and tourists but also plays a significant role in the local geography. The falls act as a natural boundary between two distinct barangays: Barangay Cathedral Falls and Barangay Waterfalls. Each barangay offers its own unique charm, contributing to the rich cultural and environmental tapestry of the region.
The falls themselves are a sight to behold, cascading down a series of rock formations that create a majestic and serene atmosphere. The name "Cathedral Falls" is inspired by the rock formations that resemble the grand arches and towering spires of a cathedral, adding a touch of grandeur to the natural setting. Visitors often find themselves mesmerized by the beauty of the falls, which are surrounded by lush greenery and provide a cool, refreshing escape from the tropical heat. The area is also a popular spot for photography, picnicking, and even light trekking, making it an ideal destination for both adventurers and those seeking tranquility.

Freediving down to a beautiful sea slug in the tropical Philippines waters.
Freediving down to a beautiful sea slug in the tropical Philippines waters. Freediving is an exhilarating way to explore the underwater world, offering a sense of freedom and connection with nature that is hard to match. Picture yourself taking a deep breath and diving into the crystal-clear waters of a tropical ocean. Among the myriad of marine creatures, your eyes are drawn to a small, but stunningly beautiful sea slug, also known as a nudibranch, gracefully gliding across a bed of coral.
Nudibranchs are some of the ocean's most captivating inhabitants, with their vivid hues and intricate patterns that can rival the most exquisite works of art. Each species is unique, and their colors can range from bright blues and yellows to deep reds and purples, often with striking contrasts and detailed markings. These tiny creatures, typically only a few centimeters long, are not just pretty to look at; they play an important role in the marine ecosystem, contributing to the health of coral reefs by grazing on algae and other small organisms.
As you hover near the sea slug, you can appreciate the delicate movements of its soft body and the way it seems to dance through the water. Freediving allows you to witness such moments in a way that feels intimate and personal, free from the noise and bubbles of scuba gear. It's a reminder of the incredible diversity and beauty of marine life, and the importance of preserving these underwater habitats for future generations to enjoy. The experience of encountering a beautiful sea slug on a freedive is a testament to the wonders that await beneath the waves, waiting to be discovered by those willing to take the plunge.

Traveling often brings unexpected and enriching experiences that you wouldn't encounter otherwise.
Traveling often brings unexpected and enriching experiences that you wouldn't encounter otherwise. Just before dawn, around 5 am, we stumbled upon an intriguing scene: piles of coconuts everywhere and smoke rising from a covered area. Initially, I assumed that charcoal was being made, but curiosity led us to stop and investigate further. As we approached, we discovered a diligent Filipino peeling coconuts and drying the coconut meat. It was a humbling sight to see someone already hard at work for hours, striving to complete his tasks before the sweltering heat of the day set in.
The process we witnessed was part of a larger journey that dried coconut meat undergoes. This meat, once dried, will be sold and eventually processed into coconut oil, a valuable product with numerous uses ranging from cooking to cosmetics. Observing this traditional method of preparation offered a fascinating glimpse into the local industry and the effort that goes into producing everyday items. It was a reminder of the dedication and labor behind the scenes that often goes unnoticed.
Stopping to observe this process turned out to be an incredibly rewarding experience. It broadened our understanding of local practices and the hard work that sustains them. Such moments are what make travel so special; they provide a deeper appreciation for the world's diversity and the people who keep these traditions alive. I am genuinely glad we took the time to stop and learn from this hardworking individual.

A quick snack stop for some delicious Dodol in Sultan Naga Dimaporo, Lanao del Norte.
Dodol is a popular delicacy in the Maranao region made from sticky rice flour, coconut milk, and brown sugar or jaggery. It originated in Java and Sumatra and spread throughout Southeast Asia, being introduced to the Philippines before Spanish colonization through trade between Sulu and Mindanao.
