  • Filipinos told me I had to go to BGC to see Venice Grand Canal Mall but I had no idea the day would end up like this.
    Of course you know there's traditional Filipino food, we stopped in at Mang Inasal for pork sisig, inasal chicken and halo-halo.

    It's not the pollution that makes you sick its actually the impact of sudden change of temperature of your body from indoor to outdoor or vice versa. That's the reason why? It's about the adaptability of your body to ones place nor low immune system. You need fruits especially vit C

      So I thought at first it might be that, or maybe air conditioners that weren't clean. But it seems that as soon as I leave the capital city of different countries I feel better.
      We eat tons of fruits, in the Philippines I have two mangoes every morning!

      I'm not sure. I am from the East Coast of Canada on the ocean and there's little pollution.
      But in the last 2 years I've only been in South East Asia and the more time I spend in cities the worse I feel. But I still like to visit the cities so I try to keep it at 4 days and then move somewhere with less pollution.
      But we really like Manila so we wanted to stay a week - but I think that was a mistake.

    Sometimes is feels so good to take a mindless wander around an air conditioned mall, window shopping and eating - esp if you’re not feeling your best and just want to get out! That looks like a great place to do it, clean and pretty. Love that you mentioned all the athletic stores in the same area - is it all organized like that? I’ve always fussed about stores being so mixed up in malls that I end up getting worn out just walking all over the place to get to all the stores that carry what I’m looking for, like gym clothes or something. Lol Glad the meds started working and hope you felt better quickly! I dont get sick often, but when I do it’s freaking ALWAYS my sinuses. 😑 PS Meant to say how pretty your lipstick is, esp having dark hair! Im blonde and can’t get away with darker colors, though I make up for it with a lot of mascara… haha

      @ayngelina sorry for speaking in the vernacular. Sarap kaya in the sentence can be loosely translated as 'more delicious' than watered down. Coconut is buko in the local language, even if the sweetened coconut in the halo-halo is called macapuno. Coconut in shredded form used as toppings to rice cake is called niyog.

    @velky_reeds 16 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

    the proper way to eat Halo-halo is indeed to mix all of it together, this is because many restaurants and stores add a lot of ice, and when you eat all of the ingredients without mixing, you're just left with clumps of flavorless ice, so trust me, you'll end up regretting not mixing it because you've wasted so much ice. People not mixing it is their personal preference, probably because they're already aware of what Halo-halo tastes like when mixed. If you're a first timer, for the sake of it, mix it on your first try, then if you prefer it not mixed, then don't mix it for the next time you try it. It's better to try dishes in the proper way the first time around, before proceeding to do it in your personal preferences just a way to respect the dish

    Oddly one of the most consequential videos of my life was a pitch video for the developers of a new city in the Philippines. With the help of my video l, they won the bid!

    Stop assuming you are Manila just because you see concrete.
    "Manila" refers only to the capital city on the west coast of the NCR (formerly, "Metro Manila"). Everything beyond it is not Manila anymore.
    BGC is not in Manila at all. It's in Taguig -- a city on its own about 2x the size of Manila.
    If you can't rid your habit of calling everything "Manila", at least say "Metro Manila" so you can still be precise and not offend local political loyalties. But really, you should learn how to name your locations properly. It's not hard at all. We have Google.
