Weaving Our Wonders

 I have heard about this celebration before, about supporting and raising the indigenous cultures around the Philippines so people could appreciate the hard work that they do for their communities.

As I have heard from my Father's personal experience as an Igorot(Mountain People) it is not a very easy life to get used to as even if you are young you are still obliged to do hard work around the village which would leave you tired almost every day but you get to grow up with nice people around the your hometown and celebrate unique occasions that they have.


And now some indigenous folks are also at hard work of weaving several fabrics and clothes for people to wear which come in very unique patterns and clothing. With that being said we should always be aware of the hard work these people do in their respective places and support them however we can ensure their hard work isn't being forgotten.
