/a warm spirit/

i'd like to take some time and talk about
ibalik

his journal site
is filled with warm words about the filipino culture
sometimes he even writes his journals
in the native language of tagalog

visiting his site makes me feel like
i'm reminiscing of good moments
with a close friend

he shares pictures and videos
of friends
as well as beautiful images
of the home country

in one of the videos
ibalik captures a moment
that i miss the most
about being with pinoys

in the description
he writes
"this video reminds me of the easy life in pinas:
kickin it with your friends at night, drinking, talking, laughing, singing
while the only sober person plays the guitar.
it's a camraderie i've been longing for,
oddly, i found it in minnesota (of all places. salamat sa inyo)."

i invite you to visit
the warm spirit of ibalik
