The best relationship is
one in which love always far exceed the need for each other. Because when you
love what you have, you have everything that you need. It is like watching two
happy people sitting side by side, hands intertwined, reliving their
yesteryears and still looking forward to the remaining days of their lives.
Well, I’m happy to meet
such wonderful couple - Jorge and Amor, whose love for one another and mutual
passion in building a sanctuary tucked away in a lush surrounding minus the
city and karaoke noise, is simply amazing.
Named after Jorge’s
wife, Sitio de Amor is a 4.5-hectare farm in San Pablo City between the
mountains of Banahaw and Cristobal, where guests can simply relax in the
company of birds and horses, take a refreshing dip in the pool with salt water
or man-made lagoon with fresh mountain water, marvel at the heirloom pieces and
antiquities all over the place, and enjoy fresh and delectable Filipino food
and hospitality (especially of the couple and Ate Magda, the all-around amiable
lady of the Sitio).
With the help of
Igorots, the entire hacienda was beautifully landscaped, with solid rocks
almost everywhere, also functioning as chairs. Villas and rooms are named after
fruits and trees, which are abundant inside the hacienda. During the Rambutan Festival
season, guests can pick and eat the fruits straight from the trees.
With the latest
acquisition of the couple – the vacation house of Thomas Morato, Sr. from
Calauag, Quezon – restored ancestral houses are soon on the rise. When I told
Jorge that his hobby of collecting old houses is quite expensive he said that
it doesn’t matter. He said that what matters is the self-fulfillment and
happiness you get in achieving whatever you desire and want in life. Boy the
man is admirable. I want to be like him when I get old. But I need to get rich
first!
A place of love and
wonder, Sitio is truly beyond the usual experience.
