 | | Boholanos
are known for their unique hospitality. One of the most common hospitality "icon"
of the Boholanos is the FIESTA. During fiesta time in any part of Bohol, family
& friends ( and even strangers) can come to a house of a host and enjoy the
sumptuous foods served on the table. Everybody would be welcome to "eat the house".....

During the
month of May, if one is just adventurous enough, he can go around the whole province
of Bohol and enjoy eating for free for the whole month. Everyday in the month
of May, there is a town, a barrio, or even
a "sitio", that is celebrating a FIESTA. May is the month when Bohol
is "sinking" because the population of Bohol during this month is multiplied twice,
thrice, or even four times. A lot of people really come to Bohol to attend the
FIESTA. And, Boholanos, from where ever they may come from, come home to
their hometowns to attend the fiesta. Every town
in Bohol celebrates their fiesta in different dates. And Boholanos, even if they
live in different parts of the globe, outside Bohol,
really try their best to come home to their hometown on fiesta. This is the best
time for them to meet old friends, relatives, share their blessings, and just
enjoy the festivities.
