Week 5 – Mananap Challenge
Zebra, tiger, koala, leopard, jaguar or cheetah? I don’t know what animal they are depicting to but this week’s surprise challenge, Jessa and Kenneth amaze me with their dexterities in making ordinary materials into art.



With a limited time of 30 minutes, the challenge requires a skill from getup transformation, tribal maquillage to ‘buwis buhay’ anthropomorphic poses in a location filled with driftwoods along Linao river in Abijao.




Can anyone guess who’s wearing a pajama and who’s wearing a table mantle?

plus of course the skills in putting their own make-up to turn faces into one unrecognizable alien – I mean ‘mananap’ is remarkable.

So what can you say about their mimicry? Is it depictive or defective?

Tell us why.
Location: Unnamed Road, Villaba, Leyte, Philippines

Buga-buga hill is one of the fascinating site in Leyte and declared as historical lanmark located in Barangay Bugabuga, Villaba. During the Japanese occupation in Leyte (1942-1945), the place was known as Mt. Canquipot and was heavily involved in the tragic history of the Second World War. Serves as one of the strategic locations of the Japanese imperial soldiers, military camps are built in and around the towering landmark where many soldiers, American, Japanese as well as defenseless Filipino had lost their lives during the intensive crossfire during the year 1943 to 1945. In Leyte, the most gruesome fight between two forces happened here in the last stronghold of Japanese soldiers led by General Suzuki. Until now some family members and relatives of the fallen Japanese soldiers would still visit the site to commemorate the somber days of their loved ones. Today, this is a remarkable destination that totally depicts a 100% true adventure. Aside from that imposing ro

Bondari Peak - A Breathtaking Landscape

With the coordinates of 11°08’47”N 124°25’52”E, the Bondari Peak is located southeast of the municipality of Villaba Leyte and lies 3,756m away from the main barrio of Abijao. With an elevation of 341masl, the place got its name derived from the English word “boundary” because the place is located precisely along with municipalities of Villaba and Matag-ob, Leyte. And later was changed to Bondari as there’s this story where three hikers asked for the name of the place, but the children they met along Tolingon trail pronounced it wrong. Instead of ‘boundary’, they said the word ‘bondari’, and from that time on, the place retained the name Bondari. The place is a wonderful destination with 360° breathtaking views and landscapes. Here, you’ll get a chance to see the popular Kalanggaman island, the historical Buga-buga hills, nearby towns, and the steaming Tongonan mountain range. . I usually climb to the top through the Hubasan, Butnga, and Tolingon trails, but th

After successfully summiting the Alto peak, the highest point in the Leyte mountains, Me and my climb companions planned to visit Lake Janagdan as well. I was excited with the plan to climb and could not wait to see the hidden treasure that lies on top in one of the highest mountains of Ormoc. I was thrilled the next day when I got a message from Anne, it was the about the climb to the dormant volcano, the Lake Janagdan. Lake Janagdan is located in the eastern part of Ormoc and is part of Mt. Aminduen ranges. It measures 1120masl and is surrounded by lush and diverse vegetation. Various plant species can be found, with ferns, vines, and trees covered with mosses. Different types of insects often crawl along the trail too. It was five o'clock in the morning when I readied my pack. The contents were a pair of clothing, cameras and bottled water. I waited and rode a van to Ormoc City and there I met Anne and Irish. After buying food for lun
