Growing up in Mindanao
My father’s ancestors were Badjaos, the original sea gypsies of Mindanao. They used to live on small sailboats called vintas and got everything they needed from the sea.
Our family doesn’t live on a vinta. We live in a nice, simple two-story concrete house in the middle of Zamboanga City. But the sea and the vinta are still very much a part of our lives.
Like many men in the city, my father is a fisherman. He fishes for tuna and sardines and sells them in restaurants and factories where they are put in cans.
