Tiga-Castilla ako with relatives in Balogo and we migrated to the US back in 86 - that long! But I moved to Manila right after graduation from Aquinas in 1980. Can you believe that? That's been centuries! And I have never been back to Sorsogon for many, many years. Even in Castilla. So while surfing the net, I thought I would type Sorsogon and see what happens and this is what I got. I'd like to thank you for those pictures. But I did hear that the church in Castilla was renovated. I thought it's a beautiful church as well to deserve a place on your blog. When you get the chance, please take a pic of the church and post it here since I have never been to Castilla in ages!
I'm one of the Jamora's. Went to school here at Temple University and is now doing more studies at George Washington University in DC. Who knows, I might end up teaching in Sorsogon City.
Kudos for a great job!

Dear Bro. Manny,
I was looking for a photo of the Cathedral of Sts. Peter & Paul in the web but I could not find a good one. I kept on searching and it led me to your blog. Truly, you are a blessing for our people and our tourism. God bless you and this Blog.
