VIVA FILIPINAS!

The fact is, the Philippines isn't perfect. It has its flaws, it has its problems, and for many of its people, those are the only things they see. Through this blog, I hope, in some way, I manage to show the beauty of the Philippines - from the fields, the mountains, the cities, the coastlines, the bays, the beaches, to the people, food, and the mundane - the beauty rarely noticed and not known by many of its own people.

All photos are linked to their original locations.

Longganisa
Longaniza or longganisa are sausages or chorizos flavored with local spices. Each region in the Philippines produces its own longaniza, each with distinct characteristics. Some towns and cities produce popular varieties. For example, Lucban, Quezon is known for its garlicky longanizas, Guagua, Pampanga for its salty, almost sour, longanizas. Longanizas are not only found in the Philippines. One can encounter them in Spain where they are originally from and other former Spanish colonies.
