About Us

The names:

Joe Papillera and Therese Angustia

​

The coordinates:

New Zealand—Auckland, to be precise

The facts:

They are two people who are very much in love and who come from the small islands of the Philippines. They once longed for and dreamed of better days, and, after a long journey, eventually found comfort and contentment in New Zealand.

This blog is a collection of their stories involving different things, places, and people, with nearly nothing to unify them—desultory, so to speak—but are otherwise written because of two reasons: they are worth telling and they are worth remembering.
