Life in Talicud Island

Life in Talicud Island

What is life in Talicud Island? Would it be as colorful as a night life in the city? Or would it be as peaceful as living in the mountain?

            Life in Talicud Island is colorful in its own way. It is as blue as seas and sky. It is red as sunset and fire. It is as yellow as ripened wheat and sun bleached hair. It is as green as the coconut leaves. But what gives color to life is the colorful heart of individual. Life here is far different from life in the city. No malls where you can stroll around and enjoy many things, no big hotel and restaurants; no internet cafe; no colorful night life and above all, no irritable traffic. Instead, you can find exotic beach resort where you can relax after long day of work. 

You can watch the fishermen pulling their fishing net; you can stretch in the sun, breathe fresh air and soak in breathtaking sights along Talicud Island. Capture reflection on film as the aquamarine waters absorb the sky and all that surrounds the shoreline.

            Life in Talicud Island is very simple. That is why; there are many people who find it hard to live here. They tried to move to other places to seek their luck. Many people failed to appreciate the gifts of this island. For me, this island is a treasure. It is my home. It is where I experienced the beauty of life, where there are sights and sounds, laughter and learning, motion and emotion, and the wonder of this island.

            Wherever I may reach in my journey, I will surely comeback in my homeland, Talicud Island.
