I look forward to my next visit and here are some clips (Part 1) from the 'old days' featuring Apo and the aspiring tattoo artist Grace Palicas who shared her patience with me along my journey to learn more about Kalinga batok...#kalinga #batok #buscalan #apowhangod #whangod #philippines #handtappingtattoo #warriors #riceterraces #philippines🇵🇭 #legend #tattoomaster #tattoohistory #cultura #culture #heritage #history #tattooed #tattoos #treasure #2007
