C-Boo explained

C-Boo: my attempt at a witty and apt blog name. I'm C and I'll soon be in Cebu City. From what I've heard, Cebu is pronounced like the blog name and yes, it's fun to say! (silliness is the elixir of life, is it not?)

But no, I'm not there yet. By early September I should be landing in Cebu City, Philippines for a six-month contract to do volunteer work with a housing co-operative. I say "mystery" because the job description is very vague and I'm expecting even that to change. However, thanks to some great friends and collegues in Vancouver, I learned that sometimes being job-descriptionless can be a good thing; having one can often raise walls and right now I want a clear view of the horizon. (Forgive my metaphors, but it's late and when I'm tired it seems like cheesy metaphors just slip out as an easy way of expressing myself...but only just.)

I'll try to use this blog as a space to share stories, observations and photos. I haven't had a blog before so let's see how this goes. Thanks for reading!
