Farm life, he had a taste of it. When he was a kid, they owned a small plot up in the slope of the hill, and they planted various vegetable and had good harvests.
Now sitting in a palm hut, chatting with his bakadas, looking the dragon fruits plantation, he dreamt of one day to own a farm again.
But kulya ric said, "farming life is not all that fairy-tale, living-life-happily-ever-after kind of life. There's a lot of hard work, a lot of obstacles have to surmounted...like, dealing with snakes, birds and bats that steal the fruits, watching out for diseases of the plants, get people to help out during harvest, getting buyers to buy the produce...."
kulya ric owned the dragon fruit plantation in san juan, batangas. he planted dragon fruit beginning of this year, expect to have the first harvest a year after that. the access road to the plantation was bad; it's narrow, squeezed in by high walls of other estates, for some distances, muddy when it rained... but he did not mind these distractions, he's focused to have his bumper harvest on his dragon fruits.
he would be retired next year, he wanted to settle down as a farmer.
