Souvenirs in Region 8: Eastern Visayas

I always want to come home from a place with something special with me. A memory that I have been to that place with all the happy memories. Pictures can be deleted online but having souvenirs makes me smile - knowing that I have a hold of those precious memories. 


Wallets

These are made from "Banig" and are among the souvenirs that can be found in Tacloban's public market.
