Team Preparations

by Andrew Quitmeyer | Apr 16, 2016 | Andrew Quitmeyer, Blog The Philippines, The Philippines

Once I land in the Philippines (after a 30+ hour series of flights from Atlanta), I have 29 days to fit in as much as I can. So I have to hit the ground running. Luckily we managed to assemble an awesome team before I left! Loushan (Yatta): Logistics Lead Loushan has...

Making [Space] Public

by Felipe Castelblanco | Apr 20, 2015 | Blog The Philippines, Felipe Castelblanco, The Philippines

It’s a hot Saturday afternoon and I feel my voice resonate strongly inside my chest while my hearing still recovers from the pressurized cabin of the airplane. I can even hear an echo leaking through the century-old walls of the Negros Museum in Bacolod… Well, the...
