That’s why when we went to the airport to send off my nephew, we were no longer surprised to see stalls selling guitars along the way. Lapu-Lapu City is well known for its guitar-making tradition, so seeing guitar shops and stalls around the city is quite common.

However, this particular stall caught my attention because of its beautiful and unique guitar designs. The guitars on display looked really nice, and I couldn’t help but stop and take a closer look.

It also brought back a sweet memory from years ago when my niece and nephew were still little. I remember buying guitars for them as gifts. Seeing these guitars again made me nostalgic and reminded me of those days when they were still young.
