One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I've seen crabs mating. I've helped restore a traditional Ifugao house in Batad, Banaue, northern Philippines. I hope to contribute to the reduction of maternal and under-five mortalities in my province, if not the country.

I can discuss extensively about global health issues but I would rather talk about farming, dive destinations and rice cakes.
