I remember chasing geeze, pigs and our guard dogs. Actually, I've been trying to write about my most memorable summer experience in the bukid and I consider this post an inspiration to write well about how beautiful it is to live a simple life in the country side. :)Maki Cabrerahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04589919502962027979noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3726180438966060623.post-78656984918272640622012-05-19T02:25:58.100-07:002012-05-19T02:25:58.100-07:00i can relate in some way. my parents both were fro...i can relate in some way. my parents both were from the province in bicol and live on a farm. but both of them really didn't find farming as their way of life so both moved in the city. but now we are often back in the province and love the simple, laid back lifestyles a good rest from the hustle and bustle of the city living!MheAnnehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05918029699410629158noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3726180438966060623.post-76858971622024701602012-05-18T23:35:46.083-07:002012-05-18T23:35:46.083-07:00Its so much better to live in a simple life by cou...Its so much better to live in a simple life by countryside than in the fast-paced city like Manila.

I am stuck in the city but always dream of one day going back for good. Love your account of harvest time.
