I live in Las Piñas, Philippines where you can find the famous Bamboo Organ built in 1824. I love history, literature, foreign languages, heritage architecture, film, theater, philately, numismatics and tennis. I work as a Creative Manager for ABS-CBN Film Productions, Inc. (Star Cinema, Skylight Films and Black Sheep) and as a Lecturer at San Beda College-Alabang. Some people call me "Dom Cirilo María" because I was once a Benedictine Novice at the Abbey of Our Lady of Montserrat-Manila. During my free time, I map heritage structures around the Philippines, especially those built during the Spanish colonial period.

I love collecting stamps, especially those that feature old buildings. I also enjoy collecting Christmas seals/anti-tuberculosis seals.

Kindly upload a photo of your postcard before sending it to me. Our post office workers have this habit of stamping postmarks on the face of the postcard. It doesn't look good when I upload photos of the postcards with those postmarks.

Also, kindly inform me if the postcard you sent me has expired. I would gladly register it for you. Thank you! 😊
