This post is about all things Filipino. I've always believed we are an amazing race and we are super blessed with an equally amazing country. Here are some stuff we can be proud of.
1. Mabuhay guides. I learned about them from Carlos Celdran's blog. They're a bunch of young Filipinos who underwent intensive training under the Department of Tourism. They are well versed about the Philippines- history, arts, culture, cuisine- basically anything Filipino. And their job? To be the official guides of prime ministers, diplomats and even celebrities who will visit the country. They will be earning P4,000 a day and P5,000 for those who know a foreign language other than English. Plus travel ang photo op- not bad. haha
2. Camiguin. They have their version of Boracay Island- only much peaceful and smaller. The White Island of Camiguin is known for its white (duh) sand. What's amazing is that this island only appears on a low tide. I've been here maybe 10 years ago and I can't wait to come back. That time, the manongs told us a story where a couple got stranded on the island so they had to stay overnight because the next banca will arrive in the morning. Shempre nag high tide, ayun naka tip-toe sila all night. hahaha benta talaga yung kwento.
3. Our very own...KEBERLOO! hahaha Inspired by the hit tv series Gossip Girl, Emm Enriquez launched his own version. Keberloo stays in touch with the Pinoy culture as the non-incognito Keberloo talks about his (and his friends) adventures, random thoughts, kilig moments and whatnots. Sneak into Keberloo's crazy world here.
