		<description><![CDATA[I am so blessed to be living in Oton, one of the attractive rural communities in Iloilo. Oton is a first class municipality in the province of Iloilo, about 30 minutes west of the city. I get to enjoy the hustle and bustle of the city then go home to my lovely, quiet town at the end of the day. We've been living here for 11 years now (we used to live in Jaro). And so far I am loving my life here.]]></description>
