When I was still working in the local government, I had some snapshots saved on my external drive. Since I am running out of thoughts in making some compositions in mylot. I might as well share some unforgettable experience in Tinglayan, Kalinga Philippines.
I had worked as a Community Facilitator before. I was assigned to work in a team and to the local community. The main role is to help the tribes in the province to make or build their community projects.
During that time, I am living in a customized bungalow type house near the Chico River. It was a fun time to be with the colleagues and relaxing to see the Chico River. My colleagues and I loved to have a picnic in the riverside every weekend.
I had this snapshot that it is being created by the local. It is a customized-goggle and a wooden gun to catch the fish in the Chico River. It was worth to remember the things from the past. This can never be seen in cities.

@ridingbet I think the spines are flexible. I didn't dare to touch it.

I had never seen this at all Shavkat.
It is local to the maximum!
Did the company build your house there? It was provided?

The government didn't provide us a staff house. My colleagues and I rented a house near the Chico River. There are so many new things that I had experienced living in this province.
I like the Chico River during the summer season. I usually plunge into the river if it is really too hot.

@TiarasOceanView Yes, my friend. It was an isolated place to live in. But I took the challenge in helping the community and accepted to work in the field.

it is also customized to the person who is using this. That is true, people from other places will be very nervous using this.

@ilocosboy I think it is, my friend. That's what I was so fascinated with the local tribes. They had all the innate skills of inventing something in their own way.
