I grew up with my "Tatay" a true blue Kapampangan from San Fernando Pampanga and having a good food is a must in our table. Mind you, pintasero yan if di masarap :P RIP Tatay, D'yan ka lang :) Plus, living in a community surrounded by Kapampangan's, (Bo. Sta Maria and Bo. Kapampangan in Paco) the blood and culture? I think already deep within me.
Now I'm missing Pampanga. Di na kami nakabalik since Tatay migrated to heaven. Miss ko na ang mga luto nya and pasyalan dun. So whenever there are events to cover in that city. I'm all in!
NorthPine Lands Inc. Invited us over for a familiarization tour of Montana Views and Pampanga's Tourists spot. And I was like GAMEEEE!

Meeting place is at Starbucks Metrowalk, I came early for I am super excited. Had our breakfast courtesy of NorthPine Land and hit the bus by 8pm and off we go to Pampanga City.
“Montana Views will set NorthPine’s footprint in North Luzon. Property development in Pampanga shows a vibrant promise and we are thrilled to play an active part in it to reach more people and make their dreams of owning a home come to life,” shared Alan R. Cruz, President for NLI.
The expansive property where Montana Views is currently being developed offers a refreshing view of the majestic Mount Arayat and is blessed with an abundant sunrise. As NLI promises to introduce a new kind of lifestyle for future residents in Pampanga, it is a home for bright opportunities in life, hence the catchphrase “Life shines anew”.
