Captured Glimpses of Our Beautiful World

It feels great to see the sun shining brightly after the rain... ... and climb up the hills of Talamban. As soon as you start trekking... you will realize how small you really are. When you catch a glimpse of the river,  you know you're close to it... You just need to go through those huge boulders first... Then, after a few more boulders, you will find yourself in front of a small waterfall... So you take a rest and take time to enjoy the view... ... before you move on to the next one! Yes, you're almost there! Finally!  You made it to The Kabang Falls! So, go! Get close to it and be refreshed! No boulders were too big to stop our adventurous hearts ~ Treks are always more fun if you have friends with you! Budlaan (part of Brgy.

The University of the Philippines, with its branch in Cebu, is one of the schools that many graduates would like to consider especially if they got high grades in their previous schools.

Join us as we explore this unique and eco-friendly home located in Brgy. Ylaya, Talamban, Cebu. As soon as you arrive, you will learn how materials are recycled, and how you can make use of things such as this wine-bottle tree. The installation of 40 solar panels provide enough electricity for the daily requirements of the Eco-House. Climbing flowering plants provide a cool shade for the garage and patio area. Ballusters on the front porch are  made from used soft drink cans. Heat insulators on the porch ceiling are  made from used juice tetra packs. The house has a lot of windows and holes everywhere that lets air flow freely from different locations providing natural light and ventilation. This eliminates the need for electric fans and air-con units and  help reduce the need for artificial lighting too. This bench is made out of scrap wood and ... with one pull, it transforms to an outdoor picnic table! ...
