A very unusual home 🙂  I love unusual!  It’s a bungalow which is circular with a swimming pool in the middle.  This photo is from one end of the circle

What an amazing collection!  This is serious 🙂  He has 70 bonsai trees!  They come from the Northern part of the Philippines.  He started out with 7 trees and the collection just grew and grew

Tito Manny personally cares for his bonsai trees.  They have to be watered three times a day with salt water which they have to get from Manila Bay and have to be trimmed

Every three to four months, someone comes over from out of the town to do the trimming

Antique and Art Collection by Tito Villanueva

By | Arts and Culture, Hobbies, Homes and Interiors | No Comments

I had to separate Tito’s collection from his home because there were just too many to post.  In this very cozy condo, there were so many beautiful art pieces!!  Tito has been collecting for so long already and each one has a story to tell!  I need to make more kwento with him! 🙂 Just taking photos took already a lot of time.  

Just this wall alone had many important and beautiful artworks.
