A NOOK IN THE CORDILLERAS

  There are a lot of nooks and crannies in mountains and rivers that are... simply ... appealing to the human soul. The Cordilleras of the Republic of the Philippines have such too... In my travels,I would go through seemingly boring landscapes... or through tiresome climbs, then come upon a location that strikes me, either because it seems so peaceful..., or it is beautiful, or the air is just right... It sure ain't no tourist spot--but as many swear by their favorite places, it sure beats tourist spots.
