Mark Castro

Writer of travel and journalism

  • 🇵🇭 Mandaue, Cebu, Philippines
  • Mandaue Review
  • 2011 to 2023

I write travel. My work has appeared in Mandaue Review and a few places that have long since closed. My readers are the reason I keep going.

More about Mark

Some of my pieces still make me wince. Some, I'm proud of.
What gifts mean to Mark: A gift would give me a bit more time to write instead of taking on extra work.
