• Singer Lyca Gairanod has revealed the reason behind her act of selling the house and lot prize of becoming first grand winner of ‘The Voice Kids,’ August 14, Saturday.

  In an interview for the YouTube channel of broadcast journalist Karen Davila, Gairanod and her family is back to the original fishing community in Tanza, Cavite where they came from. The house and lot in General Trias town were sold because of her grandmother who refuse to leave their place.

  The amount she got after selling the house was used to buy a smaller house near where her grandmother lives. “Binili ko na lang po itong bahay na ‘to [sa Tanza, Cavite] para mas malapit sa lola ko. Kasi ‘yung lola ko, ayaw umalis po doon sa bahay namin eh, gusto po niya talaga doon,” Gairanod told Davila.

  ‘The Voice Kids’ winner emphasized that she gave importance to the house that she won seven years ago, but she prefers living a simpler life as well. “‘Yung bahay na po na ‘yon [sa General Trias], talagang pinahalagahan ko siya, talagang marami po akong memories na binuo sa house na ‘yun, and para po kay Lola, gusto niya po kami makasama, kaysa naman po malayo kami,” she said.

  “Parang gusto ko lang po talaga ‘yung ganitong life, parang masaya po. Parang ayoko po ng tahimik, ‘yung wala akong naririnig na ingay,” Gairanod added.
