About Me
My name is Estan and I’m a thirtysomething freelance photographer, heritage and colonial architecture enthusiast, internet addict, blogger, ex-telecom engineer, movie fanatic, and a beetle collector.
A mixture of Filipino, Chinese and a minority, the Subanen tribe of Western Mindanao. Originally from Cebu, studied in Manila worked in the cities of Cebu, Cagayan de Oro, Davao and Makati, the Philippines. An inveterate traveler, I have gone to the northernmost islands of Batanes, the southern corridor of Tawitawi and islands and forlorn places in between. Forayed in three countries in Southeast Asia and Hongkong.
