We started our SOX Tour with a healthy breaky at Strawberry Guyabano Farm or SG Farm! What to expect on the Farm? Themed parks/locations such as Asian destinations and some iconic Western Structures. They have a restaurant that can offer breakfast, lunch, and Dinner. You can also come there if you just want to sip some coffee and simply live life with a view. And oh, if the weather is good (no heavy clouds), SG Farm is an exciting location for an amazing view of Mt. Matutum!

We had a sumptuous and healthy lunch from Punta Isla Lake Resort while cruising the beautiful Lake Sebu! Did you know Lake Sebu is situated at the ancestral domain of the T'boli and Ubo tribes of South Cotabato? Aside from its richness in Culture and tradition, Lake Sebu has been promoted by the Department of Tourism as a prime eco-tourism destination in Mindanao. So, when you visit SOX, make sure to visit Lake Sebu and make sure it's morning between 7-9 AM so that you'll witness the beautiful blooming of Lotus Flowers.

The last stop before dinner was the Tnalak Tour. T'nalak, is a weaving tradition of the T'boli people of South Cotabato, Philippines. T'nalak cloth is woven exclusively by women who have received the designs for the weave in their dreams, which they believe are a gift from Fu Dalu, the T'boli Goddess of abacá. (Wikipedia)

Aside from experiencing and learning the T'Nalak weaving, we also visited the ff:

📌 the TBoli Museum which houses a number of Gongs of different sizes

📌 100 Tnalak Collections where a number of TNalak designs are displayed
