Aside from pursuing Medicine, she also puts aside time to watch movies and to read books by Coelho and other well known authors. Her blog is very stimulating because of the diverse interests that Camille has. Go visit her blog at Memoirs of a Med Student.
Although she is not an Igorot in blood; she had done justice to the ethnic beauty of the Igorot costume. She is holding the traditional wooden shield in her left hand and the spear in her right. She is also wearing the colorful native beads and the headress.
This picture was taken during a visit to Baguio - the Summer Capital of the Philippines.
Thanks Camille for allowing me to use your picture in my blog.

Hi Jena.
Camille's lovely pic was taken at Mines View Park, Baguio City. I'm sure of that.. hehehe
Thanks Freezine for that information. Yes, this is Mines View Park. Thanks for dropping by.
Love the picture and the information. Thanks.
Thanks for the visit Mommy and me Botique.
Camille did justice to the costume indeed!
Thank you for dropping by and for your comment.You have nice blog.I'll be coming back.
ei thanks for making a special post bout my picture and promoting my blog! :) mwuah!
Camille, you're welcome, Thanks too I hope I got my facts all true...he he he,,,I will add you to my blog roll..happy blogging.
A great pix, but I wish she isn't holding a spear and a shield. Igorotas' may be natives, but they're not warriors. The spear and shield should have been reserved for the Igorot man's pix, eh? Great to see an Igorota doctor, though. And very pretty, too. I'll be visiting her site soon.
You have a point Tasha, on both counts. But doesn't she look lovely?
Thanks for dropping by.
Wish I could wear a costume like that, too, and dance together with the Igorots!
By the way, do Kalinga people speak Ilocano dialect? I am an Ilocano from La Union.

Jen, most of them do, especially the younger generation, but the older people understand English more than Tagalog.
Thanks for the visit.
and BTW Jenn, my husband is from Ilocos Norte - He's a GI (genuine ilocano) but now he's stationed in Bauang, La Union.
Mathe and Mae, thanks for dropping by. Have you noticed the voting poll? I hope you've clicked in your vote.
Hi Jena -- it's Jenn... I saw your comment on my blog and I wanted to reply here. Sure you can borrow my Banaue picture.

Well beautiful picture. Did the women take part in fighting?
Hello Ray, no they don't. In the past when tribal wars were still rampant, women were the work force while men guard the territory.
Nowadays, that peace is in place, both men and women now have their share of work.
Thanks for dropping by Ray.
Jena...
you can check out the Banaue pics in my Flick album:
