As the holidays draw near in Davao City—the bus terminal overflows with people coming from diverse cultural backgrounds who wait patiently, with their bags filled with gifts and essentials. For these travellers, going home is more than just reaching a destination—it is a return to the heart of their traditions, where family bonds and cultural heritage are celebrated during this meaningful time of the year.

Though the journey might involve long hours of waiting and travel, the exhaustion is softened by anticipation and quiet excitement. Each bus that departs carries with it not just the people but also the stories of love and the joy of reconnecting with loved ones in their hometowns. The holidays are not only about celebration but also a reaffirmation of both the sense of community and belongingness. It is a reminder that no matter the distance, home is where the heart will always lead.
