I am not sure if I am the only one has encountered a bad experience when flying out from Manila or any other country. I have several stories to share with you that have happened in the past. Story # 1 : During this time, we're riding Business Class from Philippine Airlines heading to San Francisco. Our plane had problems with the engine and was told it would be repaired enough time for us to fly. It ended up waiting so long our flight was postponed during the next day. There we're other passengers complaining because they had to attend a meeting and other couldn't control them being impatient. Philippine Airlines was offering us a hotel accommodation, but I figure I would rather get picked up by the driver and return back the next day. I had emailed my sister to inform her that our flight was postponed. Story # 2 : Mom Violy and I were leaving for Amsterdam. Mom Violy was already having a bad day. I remembered mom Violy had already converted our...

The shipping cost varies starting from PHP 50.00 ($1.00) and up.

Shopee was launch in Singapore and was expanded in Malaysia, Thailand, Vietnam and the Philippines. That is why when you shop here you mostly see items in these four countries.  By, now you are probably wondering what is Shopee that I keep talking about in my blog? Shopee has been the popular application I have been using from my phone over two years. My friend Yann was the one who had introduced me to online shopping that gets delivered to your home from cash on delivery or you pay ahead. I prefer COD short cut from cash on delivery. Sometimes we are afraid to pay ahead because you are not certain if the seller will really send the item to you right away. The reason why I love shopping at Shopee because when gasoline is expensive you don't need to worry going outside your home to go out and run to the store. There are sometimes the item you are looking for is not there and you find it easier to just purchase it online. I've bought so many things online ...

There goes a saying that the Filipino people love giving pasalubong (gifts) when they are traveling or returning back from their country. No matter what there is always something people expect from you even if you have only been away for a short time. It is a custom where we always seem to buy something memorable from our trip. I have relatives that come from the States and they always have a pasalubong to give me no matter if I am also from there. To us it is way to show is gratitude to each other. I have a close friend from the States she always ask me why I always give her a gift even if it is not her birthday. I just said, just because I want too. It is not like she is obligated to give me a gift in return. We have different means to express ourselves not by words but to give them something we feel they would like coming from our home town. Just like when I travel to another country I always have something for my employees it just shows something to them they took...
