Walk of Hope Update from Bayawan City

Bayawan City is located Southwest of Dumaguete in Negros Oriental, about two hours drive from the capital. It was evening when @flabbergast-art and I arrived coming from the city so there were not a lot of sightseeing done.

Tatay Dagsa's place, where he is staying, is along the boulevard and just across is the beach. Imagine those boats where the kids were doing their paintings before? They're across Dagsa's and one boat is being built right across our little hut. It's not completely blocking our view but a couple if trees are also infront where a few hammocks can be seen and used freely.

The Dagsa's cafe since renovation have been apparently drawing Bayawan's creatives to hangout and do meetings so when we arrived, a couple of them were present and talking to Tatay Dagsa. I didn't expect to be promoting Steemit right after arriving in town but there you go.

Turn the photo to the left and you will see our hut's door.

There is more to Bayawan than meets the eye. There is no guarantee that I will discover what Bayawan City IS in terms of its' place and importance to the country and to the world, but meeting some of its CREATIVES so soon on arrival, listening to some of their advocacies, having a vegan meal and tasting their homemade coconut juice with kalamansi (small lemon) and hearing of a Swiss student who permanently resides here now studying the OLD Filipino culture...

I am full of excitement with my stay here in Bayawan and with our future plans with @walkofhope. By the way, the organic coconut juice if left alone for 3 months will become the Bayawan's famous Coco Cider. As homemade, it can run out very easily.

I have a lot of photos of the bamboo classrum and am a bit frustrated uploading them. Apologies as my photos are mis-aligned when uploaded, with multiple tries.

Photo is mine, taken with my Samsung Galaxy S7.
