Description
Kalinga is both a tribal community and a landlocked province in the heart of the Cordillera region in northern Luzon, the Philippines. Immersed in the magnificent mountains, Kalinga people lived modest but passionate lives in a world where your tattooed skin (called "batok") communicated your social status to the local community.
