A dreamer's life

I am now live in the Philippines, have stayed almost a month in Quezon city, katipunan ave. What am I doing here? I am doing a research on Gender and coastal Livelihood studying household resilience in coastal communities. I will shared that more on different post.
But first, how did i get here?  I always want to study about gender and coastal communities. The first chance come when I work with MangroveAction project-indonesia. This organization helps me a lot to developed my interest and skill in gender and coastal communities. My co-workers, managers, and directors are just the nicest people whom i learnt a lot from them. I worked with them in South Sulawesi and Bengkalis. Visting and staying in the field site to learn more on the social changes and the environment.
Well, I have a dream, and I follow that dream. I have been looking for a fellowship to do a research and i prepare myself almost 2 years to think about the topic and how I can submit my proposal.
Below is the link to API Fellowship that I currently enrolled in:



The coolest thing about this fellowship is you can be from any background, either painter, dancer, photographer, sculpture, ngo worker, artist, performance art or academicians.
Anyone who want to apply for he program, do let me now :)

I do believe in dream. Thats what keeps me moving and living until now. I am one of those people who agree on 'if you can dream it, you definitely can make it'
Live it up. Keep your dream real. 
To dream, you don't  have to be the smartest, the richest, or the strongest. All you need is to to be brave, believe in yourself. 
Make your first step outside your comfort zone and meet me in my fabfoolous life :)
