When we were in Ibajay, Aklan, we were right on time for the Ati-Atihan Festival. We watched the parade of costumes for Ms. Gay during the festival. Then Ms. Nicaragua’s national costume caught my attention, so I grabbed the opportunity to walk near him. I asked him how they came up with such a beautiful costume.
“Which materials did you use?”
“My team and I used recycled materials like newspapers, empty plastic bottles, feathers, broom reed, and used boxes. We also used some glitter-glue and adhesive to enhance the costume.”
“Really? That’s amazing.”
