Creative Imperfection of the City of Baguio




There is something so beautiful about Baguio’s  imperfection,

 Creativity lies in the imbalance
Inspiration springs forth from the mundane, the insane...the lowest of the low…









Walking in the streets of Baguio makes you float into another reality of thoughts…
Some of this ideas are disturbing...so disturbingly unique it makes you want to fly!

While others see trash...I see opportunity
Where others see filth..I see colors...

Inspiration can only come forth in a city that comes with great challenges
People cannot shine if you do not test them to the utmost







Baguio might not have the shine and glamour of tall sparkling buildings...
It might not have the shine of  other progressive cities with order and obedient citizens…

It is one of the most chaotic cities in the world and yet it is also contains some of the most peaceful minds in the country…
If you want to find inspiration…go to Baguio.












The cold and gloomy afternoons
Are best for drinking brewed coffee...
It is the time for brewing of ideas…
At night the social media networks contain magic in every heated discussion…









The issues that the city is facing.. Allow people to communicate..
This city is alive more than ever because people have a higher need to unite
They have more  reasons to fight, they have more reasons to survive…



The city is still finding its core identity
And because of that it has the freedom to be anything it wants to be...

I know Baguio City might be useless to the tourists who are hoping for a luxurious getaway
This place must mean nothing to some who believe
That a glamorous city can only be achieved
By an orderly society...
But for us who live and experience this city every day…










Chaos...the creative chaos is what produces some of the best thinkers...



The suffering of the city will propel people to move to greater heights...
This city will produce more lively characters in the coming years...
It will help create names and destinies...
Baguio is even lovelier because of the creative mess...
