Where are you living right now?

If you have lived your whole life in the city, the idea of living a simple life in the countryside can seem interesting.

Wake up in the morning with a cup of coffee and a nice view away from the hustle and bustle of the city. While there are still a lot of people who love the city lights, we personally choose a quiet night.

Sa bukid
is a Cebuano term that means in the mountain or countryside. We got this name as we want to share our life experiences, travel adventures, and food trips in the countryside and other places in the Philippines. This blog also embraces a simple lifestyle full of homecooked meals, family gatherings, homesteading, countryside living, etc.

All About Us...

Hello! I am Flora Mie Gabunada. You can call me Flor. My name Flora means "flower" in Latin, and Flora was the Roman goddess of spring and flowering plants. Probably this is one of the reasons why I really love plants and flowers.

I am currently working as a public school teacher in our place. My goal is not just to teach but to inspire my pupils to follow their dreams, discover creativity, talents, and skills, and use them to be better citizens of the world.

Aside from working as a full-time teacher, I also enjoy going to our little farm. My parents are farmers so I usually help them with some farm work like planting, harvesting, and looking after our farm animals.

I am a certified plantita. Plantita is a Filipino word that is used to call a person who loves flowering and non-flowering plants. In fact, I have so many plant collections in our garden.

Hi! I am Rex Martinez Jr, a 26-year-old skillful and funny extraordinary guy. For me, life is a wonderful blessing that we have to celebrate every day.

My disability doesn't define my life.

When I was 5 years old, I had a terrible road accident. When I was about to cross the street, the 6-wheeler truck hit me resulting in the amputation of my left leg. I experienced being bullied for being different. However, my family always reminds me that I am capable of doing anything and that I am loved. After 20 years of using crutches, I finally have my prosthetic leg. Thanks to my family and friends for the donations. Though that tragic event happened in my life, it doesn't stop me from doing the things that I am passionate about which is traveling. A year ago, I bought a scooter so I can travel and visit my girlfriend in the countryside.

At first, it was very difficult for me to balance but I was really determined to practice it every day. After months of practice with hard work and determination, I took a driver's test and got my driver's license and that started the travel adventure. I always love to drive a motorcycle and travel the Philippines, engage in hiking, and mountain climbing, and cook sumptuous Filipino cuisine. My family, friends, and girlfriend inspired me to do my best in everything that I do.

Now, I am living in the countryside. I fell in love with the countryside life. I take care of our farm animals and make DIY stuff for the farm. A lot of new things for me that I want to share with the hive community. I am so excited to share our life experiences here.

OUR LOVE STORY

We met before when we were young. He used to visit his cousins in the countryside of Cebu. Then after so many years, we haven't seen each other. By the way, his aunt is my uncle's wife who lived near our house before. When our aunt passed away almost 2 years ago, we saw each other again at the funeral. From that day, he started to visit our place, fell in love, and started dating. We are now in a relationship for almost 2 years.

“Love is like the wind, you can’t see it but you can feel it.” – Nicholas Sparks

Getting into this platform, makes us feel excited about sharing our stories with the hive community.

Lastly, we would like to thank thegoodbi@thegoodbi, especially Jaya for helping us around and patsitivity@patsitivity for onboarding us on PEAKD/Hive. We are looking forward to meeting inspiring people in the Hive Community.
