Backtrails: Naujan


by Pransism   Our trip to Naujan was one great escape. For, as was always the case, we were not really allowed to wander outside the borders of Calapan. To find oneself far from your house in the night in the island poses one big problem – not too much public transport is available. And thus the trek to Naujan...

Mindoro Diary, The Northeast Coast


By Lory Tan   Day 1 - Halloween revelry had obviously taken its toll on the heavens. It was early afternoon, but Manila sat beneath an angry thick canopy, the texture of grey cotton. The saints were not feasting today.   No matter. I was headed south, and glints of blue splashed the Tagalog sky. This was going...

Mining Memories of Mindoro (Conclusion)


by Monette Adeva Maglaya   I soon realized that no journey carries one far unless, as it extends into the world around us, it goes an equal distance into the world within." – Lillian Smith   Gone are the slow, ponderous boats to Calapan that seemed more like floating coffins decades ago.

Mining Memories of Mindoro


by Monette Adeva Maglaya   Every place I have ever been to is made significant by the images and thoughts I have of people, places and experiences that still live on in my memory.

Naujan, Oriental Mindoro


Story by Mark Verzo   Was where we went to, Holy Week 2010. Why? Because we did not have any plans, and like I “tweeted” (yes, I have Twitter), we almost ended up in Puerto Galera. Naujan is about two hours away from White Beach via automobile. The only reason we got to know of this unheard municipality is because...

Mindoro on My Mind


by Edicio dela Torre   Seen from the upper deck of the Starlite Ro-Ro, the port of Calapan City is a slender strip of concrete against a lush green landscape. This is heightened by the two small equally green islands framing our boat’s approach.   I travelled with my sister and mother to Mindoro today,...
