For Jale Monique Abellas, a call center agent in Cebu, her goal was to take her parents on a trip outside of their hometown of Brgy. Matab-ang in the town of Toledo City, Cebu. Her father, Manolito, works as a caretaker for a coconut plantation while her mother, Maria, stays at home to tend to her and her siblings. Both rarely venture away from home, content as they were with the peace and quiet they enjoy in their hometown.
