Of Fireflies Night and Quaint Vibe of Mararison Island | Antique

Memories of my first visit
to Mararison Island played vividly on my mind as we approach it aboard a
motorized boat from the port of Culasi. I could still hear in my head, the angelic
voices of the Mararison Children's choir belting out a harmonious Kinaray—a traditional welcoming song.
Known all over Antique province where they perform frequently in numerous
revelries, its members whose ages ranges from 6 to 13 thirteen years old have become
the island’s cultural ambassadors. It was more than a year ago when I first
heard them croon. One and a half lap around the sun later, I find myself en
route back to Mararison—not only to listen again to the youngsters’ divine
voices but also to embrace the enthralling setting of Mararison.
