When most people think of the Philippines, they think of the beaches. If only they could see the beauty of the mountains that surround me each day. They are a true gift from God.
This mountain is named "sleeping beauty." The Igorots call it that because its profile resembles that of a sleeping woman. Also, there are many waterfalls flowing from this mountains sides which the people here see as a symbol of birth and renewal of life, which is one of the most precious gifts of a woman.
The terraced sides of the mountains are planting rice, which is the staple diet of the people here. When the rice crop turns a bright yellow-green color, it is ready for harvesting.
