LOKARON is a site which features beautiful places in the country, traditional and modern festivities, events and occasions, and other tourist attractions which the PH country is proud of.

LOKARON also features ideas or issues which serve as the bases worthy for discussion, adoptable or not, for dissension or consensus, but nothing personal so to speak.

LOKARON is a short term for the phrase, "LOOK AROUND". Look around is an idiomatic expression which means to see things in various directions, examine anything whether events, places, or a situation which could be subject for appreciation or disapproval, depending on the purpose of the doer or the concern.LOKARON comes to being unexpectedly.

LOKARON is owned, maintained, managed by a blogger, Gil Camporazo, who is by profession is a school head of elementary school in the small schools division of La Carlota City, Negros Occidental, Philippines. He has a passion in writing. This could be another writing task to work in addition to his existing blogs.

LOKARON is created with a triple 2 (2-22) by virtue of circumstances. The organizer is on his laptop updating his social media activities when the idea of creating another blog crops up. Thus
In so doing, what he sees, what he thinks is what he shares in writing. That's the motto of LOKARON.

Therefore, LOKARON is now at your service starting this day.

      You are correct. Some take a day or so to complete writing their articles. Writing is vert difficult to maintain for it takes a good attitude, discipline and even a right mood to write. But a skillful writer no need for an inspiration. Once he takes hold of his pen, he's already writing and presto, he's done.

      There's nothing seems impossible for a person who works on it. If you want to have a travel blog for yourself, you can do it. It takes patience and smartness to have it perfectly. Hard work is not the key of success for that.

Secret of 'Linaw Bubong' Freshness

Image
Linaw Bubong at San Miguel, La Carlota City, Neg. Occ., PH We're refreshed and cool off the summer heat after we explored "Linaw Bubong", an Ilonggo dialect which refers to a crystal clear well, The native of the place has called it for its fresh water which runs from the said spring, a top of Barangay San Miguel, one of the 14 barangay in the small city of La Carlota, Negros Occidental, Philippines. This was our unforgettable experience we got when sometime in the month of April in 2013, my whole family spent a day in Linaw Bubong. Everyone of us couldn't resist the inviting fresh water of the said spring. We stayed more than 2 hours on the water. My son-in-law, Almon since he knew how to swim, dived to the water and surfaced with a big smile. Our small grandchildren just played on the shallow area of the "bubong". Not only the freshness of the water has made us cool and relaxed, also the ambiance, the surroundings where fresh air so abounding hav...
