One of the benefits of working overseas, in our case working in Norway is that there is a greater chance of owning a piece of land in Samal Island, the Philippines.

In 2006, we were able to achieve that dream of cultivating our own parcel of land, planted trees, little by little, step by step, we were able to gather pieces of materials and was able to tap people in the nearby town to help us in developing an almost forgotten piece of treasure in that island across Davao City.

What is so special about this piece of land? Well, for one, its an ultimate adventure, a haven for thrill-seekers and nature lovers. Its a marine sanctuary- a home for unique sea creatures living in colorful corals one can never imagine to exist. Coconuts? We have plenty, including all its healthy benefits and raw materials..oh we're so lucky. The place is undoubtedly serene, very quiet, perfect for meditation, and yes just the right location for an hour or so of Yoga exercises..and the sunrise, it's an awesome sight, truly a wonderful scene, a photographers delight.

A majestic falls just a few meters away awaits visitors, offering a refreshing experience one can never forget..truly a stress-reliever.

For 3 years, we were inviting families, friends to also enjoy this gift..this hidden treasure...a treasure that will be a venue for family gatherings, laughter and story-telling. A place where one can intensify his/her love for God's wonderful creation.
