Kindness & Empathy

Every seafarer has a unique journey. We listen with open hearts and with each story, extend our respect, care, and understanding.

Togetherness & Kapwa

No one should face life at sea alone. By sharing stories and supporting each other, we build a strong and caring community for seafarers and their families.

Knowledge is Power

By highlighting real stories, we aim to inform and support. The more we understand the life at sea, the better we can care for those who live it.

Honoring the Journey

We celebrate the hard work and sacrifices of seafarers and their families. We are here to shine a light on their everyday strength.

Catch the latest release of Kwentong Marino!

Parola shines a light on the lives of Filipino seafarers through Kwentong Marino, a video series sharing real and personal stories from those who navigate the different currents of life at sea, and those who wait for them on shore.

Each episode features seafearers in different roles, and the loved ones that support them, opening up about sacrifice, resilience, and the hope that keeps them going: for family, for dreams, and for a better future.
