I have never stayed in Bacolod for more than a week since I left the City of Smiles for good in 2003. But recently, I had the chance to go back to my home province and stay for 2 weeks in Victorias City and another 2 weeks in Manapla. The preparations we had for the Kadalag-an Festival in Victorias City and preparing our dancers in Manapla City as they performed at the Panaad sa Negros Festival of Festivals Competition made me stay in the province for a month.

I am currently at the Bacolod Silay Airport. After staying in Negros Occidental for more than a month ( 2 weeks in Victorias City and another 2 weeks in Manapla + some more days in Bacolod)
