Bong SerranoBong Serrano describes himself as a Batangueño, someone who grew up in Batangas, in the Philippines. This, his first book, was a labor of love that he hopes will inspire readers to immerse themselves in a bygone Filipino life and take them back to thir childhood memories, wherever they may come from.

Though Bong has lived in Canada for many years, he regularly returns to Batangas to visit family and friends, maintaining those connections he holds dear.

In his free time, Bong loves sharing stories, listening to music, taking long walks along the seawall, cooking adobo, and watching Asian dramas. He lives in Vancouver with his life partner of thirty years.
