    It is thru your eyes that we get to see the different parts of the Philippines that we don’t get to see especially on Christmas time and you also help ease our homesickness for those living in another country. I’m in the US right now and I’m so jealous you get to experience this for yourself. Truly Christmas in the Philippines is like no other. I appreciate what you do. Thanks a bunch. I subscribed.

    Filipinos will take advantage of the chance of merriment at any given time. Festivals, Christmas, religious events, concerts...they would bring out their best to participate in the spirit of camaraderie and for their own personal enjoyment as well.
    Bracing for the next disaster or calamity to come, this is how we tend to dismiss/forget how broken we have been. This is a way to show/practice resiliency.

    Christmas lights and decorations in most parts of the country are spectacular but more than that the attitude and the anticipation that people have about the holidays are very pronounced and punctuated with food, music, church, family, friends, gift giving, lantern parades, fireworks and fire crackers. Iloilo has developed so much since the last time I was there as a child.

      We were in Cambodia and it's true the cranes were all over thousands of them. But the fifferen we found is every single construction site was a Chinese company with flown in Chinese construction workers doing all the work. None of this benefitted the people of Cambodia sadly. Also the traffic, road rules, how clean the cities were, infrastructure were not close to what we see here yet. Cambodia is a smaller country so it should be very fat transformation tthough
