[shopaholic18]

nandito pa ako actually sa Pinas and im planning to migrate soon...but before that gusto ko sana makapunta sa mga tourist spots dito...di pa ako nakapunta sa bohol,cebu and palawan eh...yun muna bago umalis...

[mooncake and leaves]

^ yes do that. i wish ginawa ko yan before ako umalis para 'di ako pabalik balik sa Pinas haha. madami akong unfinished business sa Pinas in terms of travel eh. and looking back, I would've skipped the places I went to, the touristy spots. I would've gone to the really beautiful ones first.

Thanks Sis Sydxoxo. Will also buy native fashion accessories & pearls as pasalubong for foreign friends. They love it plus one way of promoting Pinas too

^well then Kultura is the best place for your needs. went there last night (MOA) and they're on SALE. saw Filipinianas, home decors and fashion accessories (and pearls) too! for guys, i suggest you buy from TEAM MANILA (shirts):

http://www.teammanilalifestyle.com/shop/index.php

they have independent stores in MOA and Trinoma and a small space inside Kultura (MOA).


Happy Shopping!

[Longhair]

OMG, the Team Manila items are awesome! Perfect way to promote Pinas! I love you Sis Sydxoxo God Bless You!

[sydxoxo]

No problem Ms. Longhair. TEAM MANILA is the best! i love them! My #1 store when in comes to souvenirs for relatives abroad.

[cuppie_cake]

1. Visit my mom, lola and aunt in the cemetery
2. Go to Acuatico with my family (I'm considering Bohol sana at 1st kaso gusto ko kasama 2 kids ko di lang si hubby, the problem is proximity and expenses, so sa batangas na lang muna)
3. Dine out with my relatives and maybe do a little grocery with them na din (simple lifestyle lang sila so siguro somewhere in a buffet ok na)
4. Meet up with my friends, probably just a night of inuman na din..
5. Eat the things I miss (Pancake house's spag, red ribbon's choc mousse and dinuguan, purefoods TJ hotdogs, taho, quek quek!)

And of course, last but especially not the least, spend so much time with hubby and kids! parang ayaw ko na magsleep nun, sobra ko silang namiss, I wanna stare at their faces for a long long time, matagal na naman kasi kami di magkikita nun, or baka next time we saw each other dito na rin sa Ca, kasi we're planning on migrating the whole family na! Hay, ang sarap magplan.. 

[Longhair]

Just got back from Pinas. We were able to visit our American Missionary friends in Bacolod. Balikan lang kami since the Zest Air Ticket was so cheap, 2,500 each lang kami ni hubby, round trip! Plus bago pa [textspeak!] plane na natapat, impressive talaga!

For pasalubong, I bought most of them from Market Market and Mercato at D'Fort (malunggay chips, ginger chips, shrimp paste w/ tamarind & honey, mango otap & biscocho made by Trappist Monks in Guimaras, Wasabi vinaigrette, etc). My friends loved it!
