Rainy season does not only bring good thing for farmers: tilling their farms, season of the flowers, plants grow, and greener environment.
But life is not like always this because the continuous heavy rains and typhoons cause floods in the central business district and landslides in the mountainous part of the region. Many villages are isolated because of floods and landslides. Sometimes it take more than 3 days of isolation in their place.
Due to the necessity, villagers braved to walk the landslides even when the mud is eating their feet. They sometimes ride a makeshift ferry ride to cross the raging water in the river. Its dangerous but when they need to get home or go to the city, they have no option but to face the danger.
Its rainy season again.

People are always in danger during typhoon: landslides, floods and isolation for some days. Its really hard to cope a day when typhoon comes.
