Nostalgia Manila Interview With The Manila Bulletin

NOSTALGIA MANILA: THE WAY WE WERE
By Annalyn S. Jusay (now blogging at www.annalyn.net)

Voltes V. The Hotdogs. Student Canteen. Flor de Luna. Jingle Song hits. If you lived through the 70s and 80s, you'd surely know a lot of these things, and more. Thankfully, there's now a site dealing with all things Pinoy Retro and it's fittingly called Nostalgia Manila. Though it is still fairly new, Nostalgia Manila has made quite a buzz in the Pinoy blogosphere with its well-researched posts providing precious snippets of Pinoy pop culture and information on a decade gone by. This is further complemented by an irresistible retro-inspired design and audio. The person behind Nostalgia Manila prefers to remain anonymous but it was surprising to learn that he does not live in Manila at all, but in New York City where he prefers to keep his Filipino identity alive. More in the following interview:
