    sinigang tip - it's best to boil water, onion and tomatoes first - add a bit of pepper - brings out the flavor more... then when it boils, add the sinigang mix let it simmer, lastly, add the veggies until cooked :)

    hopefully someday darating din ako sa point na mareach ko ang 20k budget monthly for food and groceries 🙏
    sa ngayon, tiis tiis muna and wisely budgeting my 14k monthly salary for everything.

      You will reach there! For a year before, I budgetted 10k to 15k monthly salary so I know how that feels. I hope you don't give up and reach higher soon!

    I left the Philippines in 1998, and though I used to visit every 2 years from 2009, I stayed for a very short time each time so I am so out of touch with the country. As an example, I dont even know how to ride the newer LRTs other than the original one, dont know what pasa load mean or how to load credits on yr cell when visiting…and most especially, I dont know what Pay Maya is. Great watching yr vlog to be able to know a bit more of my home country. I cant believe the prices have really gone up!

      You can try other new things when you get back. Just a warning that traffic can be worse during rush hour and you may not want to ride trains by then haha. Yes, prices have been so high this year. :((
