Great job @pinayinireland I love the way you shared your story, it's good to see some Filipinos who are working outside of the Philippines sharing their adventures here on Hive. It will not only add value to the community but someday some people could learn from your travel diaries and got some ideas from your blog post.
By the way I'm also glad that you came from the province of Cebu, I am also a Cebuano from the northern tip of Cebu, Bantayan Island. Anyway, thanks a lot for sharing.
