Mabuhay!!!

I have finally started my adventure to the Philippines!! I arrived yesterday - November 16 after a super long travel journey. My journey consisted of a 14 hour flight from Toronto to Seoul, South Korea where I had a 5 hour layover. Luckily I bought Skype minutes so I was able to call home. While I was waiting, I made friends with some fellow Torontonians who were flying to Malaysia. We went on a quest to find food but nothing in the airport was open. Everything opened at 7am :(. I'm glad Ray gave me mini eggs to munch on while I was there :)

When I arrived in the Philippines I was hit with crazy heat!!! The minute I stepped outside I was already sweating buckets. That's how hot and humid it is here. I had a little panic attack because I couldn't find my family and the phone numbers I tried calling weren't working! OMG, you can imagine how scared I was. Luckily I was able to contact my cousin and he contacted my family who eventually found me.

First thing we did after bringing my stuff to the house was hit the mall!! Yes! Glorietta for lunch and so I could use the internet because we had a brownout so the phones and internet were not working at the house. The malls here are MEGA!!!! And there are sooo many more than back home. The malls back home aren't half as big and don't have as many cool stores as they do here. My cousin's keep telling me about different malls they're going to take me. I really hope I can get some mad shopping done! LOL! I'm pretty sure I will.

Other things on our list to do while I'm here are visit Intramuros - historical site, visit family in Illocos Norte, beaching in Palawan, more malling and visiting Ray's Ninang!!

That's my update for now! Will update later!!

First Time Blogger

Hi Everyone! This is my very first blog and I've created it so that I can blog about the different things that I enjoy and make me happy :) (i.e. my travel adventures to far off places, fashion, events around town, and photography). I'm very excited to finally start blogging and share my thoughts and experiences with all of you.
