Baliwag is my boyhood town. I lived there from 1989 to 2000 and graduated in San Jose Elementary School and Mariano Ponce High School. Even when I studied in Bulacan State University (BSU), I still go home in Baliwag. After college, I left Baliwag and lived in Pasig City ever since.
Baliwag will always be a place worth visiting and this is the first time that I took a lot of pictures of this amazing place. It’s on its way to becoming Baliwag City and a lot has changed specially in San Jose Tumana where I used to live.
