Rizal

As a new immigrant to Calamba in late 2007, it was only when natural for me to explore the place armed with my handy camera, of origin at the so 1st possible time I could.

The ground floor is made of stone tiles, part the second floor is made of heavy wood planks representative of every bahay na bato. The interior walls are un paint, probably just stained to display the natural beauty of the wood, while the windows are made of Capiz shells.
