Ednas Bio

I was born in Clarin on the island of Bohol in 1975 but moved to Sindangan in Zamboanga del Norte when I was just a baby. My Lola and Lolo raised me in a small bamboo nippa hut near the beach. Lolo was a fisherman and we were poor but managed to survive. I went to school at Philippine Advent College and after graduation I took a job in Manila, as a domestic helper, to send money home and help out. In 2000 I moved back to Sindangan where my daughter Angel was born and worked in a computer store. I learned a lot about Microsoft Office software and other applications and was able to help our customers with their projects. The pay was small but it bought food and paid expenses for us. Lola looked after Angel while I worked.

I met Steve through a couple I was friendly with named Norbert and Jema. Norbert is a very good friend of Steve from Germany and Jema is his Filipina wife. We met at their place in Calatunan near Sindangan and got to know each other with several visits. It worked out and we are together now for four years. We lived in Dipolog for a year in an apartment Steve had and then after visiting my family in Bohol decided to move there. We rented a house in Clarin for a year and then found some property on the beach near Calape. Angel is in school on the Island of Panggangan and she is in grade 2.

I enjoy visiting with my friends and looking after the house. I lke to garden and I have lots of potted plants to take care of. I stay busy and my biggest job is taking care of Steve. We are both very bugoy and we get along good and have fun here at our home.
