What is this?

From the memories of a child who grew up in Davao, Jinggol is born. This section of DavaoBase will feature stories about the city’s past, from the eyes of a writer undergoing second childhood. Keep posted for nostalgic moments and experiences in hometown Davao City.

Who Am I?

Ako si Jinggol. I was once a kid, just like everyone else. My entire childhood was played out within the confines of Davao City. Everything that I learned, enjoyed and experienced was tied up with Davao City's own history. Years after, I am ready to share my memories to the world.
