Because of this website it was possible for me to order
the books about our beautiful home town."The making
of the Ivatans(Cultural History of Batanes), tri-language
dictionary, and Taming of the Wind by Dr. F. Hornedo.
Thank you to all of you who made this website possible
for everybody especially to the ones are far away from
home, like myself and the Ivatans elsewhere in the world
to get updated to what's going on back in Batanes.
