I knew I would be stepping foot on this tamed, religious town the moment I saw a picture of it over the internet. Boljoon (read as Bol-ho-on) came first to my knowledge in dear friend Ephraim’s blog post over two years ago. My mind did not need […]

This coastal town only has a few remaining ancestral homes which either have been turned to business establishments or remained the families’ humble abode. Either way, I was still happy to see a few old homes that withstood the test of time.
