Welcome, friends, old companions and new, to Tales From the World’s Firesides. I’m Clive Gilson, The Story Guy, and today our journey takes us to the Philippines, to the misty valleys and sunlit rice fields of the Tinguian people. Have you ever wondered what might happen if the wind itself could speak, or if the birds above your fields carried a secret meant only for you? In this tale, we’ll meet a farmer named Ligi, whose kindness and curiosity drew the attention of just such mysterious beings.
Stories like this remind us that across every island and mountain, every heart and tongue, people have always found ways to speak of transformation, gratitude, and the places where the spirit world touches our own.
If you’d like to wander further, you can explore my full collections of folklore, from the Arctic to the Caribbean, from the Philippines to Zanzibar, available in print and digital form.
