    Hi MJ! This episode on your Mum's store is really one of the best you have done . . . Day-in-the-life stories often seem to work well including for people like fashion models . . . The episodes on building your house were great, your fam etc . . .
    I really think you should do a "Man on the Street" feature where you have a hat and a microphone and interview interesting people in Cebu, the Province etc . . . such a thing looks effortless to the audience, but there is Work in locating the Subject, getting their coop etc; but such a sequence is interesting and there's an unending supply of characters in this world . . . talking about their line of work, their life etc . . .

    Those are beautiful roosters you have there too. Don't forget that their feathers can be sold to fishing lure manufacturers if it is skinned and the skin " salted and tanned " properly.
    Lots of good money for really good feathers to fly tying shops and other fishing stores around the world.
    Keep up the good work. It's very pretty there.

    Very convenient store in the provance. Much needed I would think. Hopefully mama has plenty of customers? There is a good number of people who live nearby who use the store?
    I think Mel is good mix of provance girl and sophisticated city girl these days...she blends in both environments.
    Very interesting this video

    • @puppyupper4565
      @puppyupper4565 3 роки тому +1

      storing it on the outside of the store is more dangerous when many smoke. They do not have open flames inside their stores. I have lived in the Phil. You never hear of a store going up in flames. Are things as safe as in the west, NO. but storing gasoline outside the store is just not an option.

    Yes Meljean, finish the wall of your mother's store to look smooth at the front and back. The store needs to look nice and inviting. I do not think it will cost you 5000.00 pesos to smoothen the hollow blocks and paint it to give life and beauty to the store in the countryside. Nice view too for you everytime you wake up in the morning..
