When a foreigner is born and grew up in the US , they claim to be Americans with such and such heritage. Since I am Ilocano by heritage but being born and raised in Baguio , what am I ? Igorot is a foreign term so to speak , so is Filipino . But since we have accepted those terms I for one strictly speaking is an Igorot. I was born and grew up in the mountains. I may not be an Ibaloi or Kankanaey but I fall in the category of Igorot , being a person of the Northern mountains. Ilocano culture is almost alien to me although I speak the language. I may not be accepted as an Igorot by my native friends and neighbors , but deep inside me I am an Igorot. I don't know of any other culture but the uniquely 60's to the 80's Baguio.

Province (Sagada, Bauko, Besao yata) so the entire CAR is not represented. Cheers. <br/><br/>Hi Anonymous,<br/>No, it doesn't look like that :-) I'll visit nga again doon and take a picture so we will all see what it looks like. Thanks.<br/><br/>Hi Ferri,<br/>Hehe may mga tao talagang ganyan. I remember attending a contest, tapos nanalo ang mga taga Mt. Province bago sinabi ng isa sa mga contest organizers (who was snobbish at first) na siya ay Igorot. (And she wasn't one of the judges which would have justified her ignoring us during the contest period.) Ayyayyay. Hi Trublue,

Malay mo nga naman Bill, sir pala ako! hahaha!<br/><br/>True Igorot? Look at me. lolz <br/>Meron pong false Igorot, yung katulad ng kapitbahay ng kaibigan ng kamag-anak ng kakilala ko na mabilis umaming igorot siya kapag may pumupuri sa mga igorots pero halos mag180 degrees ang leeg sa kaka-oonga pag may omookray sa mga Igorot. <br/><br/>Wala kang kakilalang gay-on? Swerte nyo!<br/><br/>Mabuhay po! nyahaha! sir ba naman! Malay mo nga naman Bill, sir pala ako! hahaha!

Meron pong false Igorot, yung katulad ng kapitbahay ng kaibigan ng kamag-anak ng kakilala ko na mabilis umaming igorot siya kapag may pumupuri sa mga igorots pero halos mag180 degrees ang leeg sa kaka-oonga pag may omookray sa mga Igorot.

Wala kang kakilalang gay-on? Swerte nyo!

Mabuhay po!
