"A pure blooded southern Filipina with principles, well mannered and well disciplined. Was born and raised in Philippines and currently living in United States with her small yet happy family. She is well taken cared by her loving dear husband. A proud mother of two kids, a boy and a girl. A very friendly person but can be evil once provoked."

Popping your culture. The main goal of volkanoboy.com is to share with everybody a little of Filipino pop-culture from an American point of view. There is a gap between the most Westernized country in eastern Asia, the Philippines, and the United States as far as perception of culture goes. volkanoboy.com will show all of the √¢Ç«®≈ÏCNN-breastfed√¢Ç«®¨? people that The Filipino and The Philippines are more than what they see on TV.

Everyone has their own story; this is a bit of my own. By the sacrifices of my dear mother, I went from living on dirt floors to a solid home and a bed in the Philippines. Then without a total desire to live in the USA (I have no relatives here), I immigrated here as this is where my husband lives. Our first years of marriage have been a far cry from anything ìnormalî but I wouldnít trade in the trials for anything. The challenges made us an incredibly strong couple looking to make a difference in this world.
