Tagaytay High

even if half of my life spent in cosmopolitan Manila.  i always been a country girl and probinsyana by heart.  i love old  towns, lazy and vintage.   that explains why i never really went for condo living but always dreamt of that brickhouse up South.  The cold breezy weather's perfect for me.  I am the one who will never ever survive heat, humidity, sweat LOL .... that makes Tagaytay my ol time favorite place.  With all the flora and fauna, fresher, cleaner air, good coffee, good choc'late, good food.  To die for!!!aner air, good coffee, good choc'late, good food!!!   To die for!
