Magellan

Manila, my hometown. The city of adventure. Every corner has a story, every person has a meaning. The city of colors, lights, sounds and life.
Magellan who is in this picture is our national hero. He fought against the spaniards to obtain our freedom.We were colonized by different nations which is also an explanation why Filipinos have a very diverse culture. We may be a mixed race but we are unified by our diversified culture, and we stand against oppressors together as one Filipino nation.

a firm nation

Democracy is our mode of government and our government empowers the nation

a land of colorful people

All smiles. That is how we filipino are. Always smiling, always giggling, always ready for a joke,. ready to lend a helping hand

Pros and Cons

In a nutshell:life in different colors
