EMOTIONAL FILIPINO Birthday Surprise For BRITISH FAMILY ???????? Bisaya Mañanita

Today we were given an emotional Filipino Birthday surprise for our daughter Story Ember. As a British family living in the Philippines we are slowly learning what makes this country and it's people so very special.

We experienced a Mañanita or an early morning sunrise serenade by the local people from our town on Siargao island. This old tradition is very special to the Cebuano, Bisaya and Siargao people and isn't practiced as much as it used to be. So the locals were very excited to get the chance to do this beautiful performance for us.

We were so moved by the love and care that was put into the lyrics of the morning serenade. It is like nothing we've ever seen in our lives. Thank you so much to Ate Jane and her family for organizing this for our special 4 year old girl. She loved it!

Our names are Jmayel, Sacha & Story. We traveled to Siargao island with Jmayel's mum & Story's grandma just before the Global pandemic that sent the whole planet into quarantine. We got stranded for over 3 months and fell in love with island life, now we want to make that life more permanent.
