    I've been here. Sobrang hirap ng byahe but it's worth it in the end. Glad to meet Apo whang-od face to face
  • napanood ko na to sa GMA,.... thanks byahe ni drew for promoting the culture.... mayaman sa cultura at tradisyon ang kalinga,, when it comes to music, arts,,,, literature... culture n tradisyons ang kalinga ang pinakamayaman sa buong cordillera, hindi lng masyadong napapansin, just because of discriminations,,, 👍known also as the most hospitable, respectful, generous approachable and industrious ppol in cordillera.♥️👍‼️....

    Mali po yung subtitle sa 1:57. hehe Subtitle was: 'Yung itak binebenta rin namin sa ibang bayan. What he said was: "Amin nga pakausaren ti buneng ket adu". Which means: Maraming pag gagamitan ang itak. But overall, the video was awesome! I personally have my own tattoo from Buscalan, not by Apo Whang-Od but by her nephew. And sobrang worth it ang biyahe!
  • Isa talaga to sa dream/bucket list ko ang makapag tattoo kay Apo Whang Od manifest ko na hihi ✨ Nakaka proud dahil naprepreserve ang kultura ng Pilipinas. 🇵🇭
