Episode 3: Aponibolinayen and the Sun

In Episode 3 of Cozy Kwento, we read from Mabel Cook Cole’s 1916 “Philippine Folk Tales” — a Tinguian (Itneg) story about a woman who’s carried up to the sky, meets the sun, and brings a bit of magic back to earth.

It’s dreamy, strange, and very old-Luzon.

✨ For fans of Philippine folklore, Cordillera tales, skyworld stories, and cozy myth podcasts. #CozyKwento #PhilippineMythology #PinoyFolklore
