Welcome to Cebu!

I knew Cebu when my late grandmother, Lola Trudez introduced me Masareal, a sugary sweet bar made of i-don't-know wrapped in a plain white paper which she would always brag to come from Sugbu (Cebu's old name) everytime she offered us a teeny-weeny piece. Cebu was so familiar to me even then coz my papa would always grab the ukulele and we would sing the "May barko gikan sa Sugbu... kang lola lung-ag sa kusina..." together with mama. Yes, I would always picture Cebu with a big boat -they never told me about the existence of beautiful white beaches here!

I have been working here for 6 years already. Never did I imagine working here, I have always dream of working abroad. Friends used to invite me to work here or in Manila and I would always say, "I would only work and live far from my family when the job is overseas." But still, the wind brought me here from a province called Misamis Occidental. I found home in Cebu. The place has a lot to offer. Restaurants and cafes for friends' rendezvous, malls and cinemas to catch the latest trends and flicks, modern infrastructure to embrace the future, jobs to hone your skills, the friendly people and the famous beachfronts with pristine sand and bluewater for swimming, snorkeling and diving. What more you can ask for?
