Remember the first time we met,

the ease and comfort we felt?

Seems like we've known each other for so long.

Like you and me we both belong.

I was not ready to open my life to you.

For I am feeling so blue.

But each day you leave me no clue,

About how you make me have this feeling so true.

You held me up when I am down,

You cheer me up each time I frown.

When I am lost you find my way,

No matter how busy you are every day.

You never react nor ever complain.

And this makes me somehow in pain.

I know u deserve better than this.

Every good thing in love, more than just a kiss.

I hope that I can keep you forever,

To have and hold, please leave me never.

Coz I never felt cared and important before.

Having you in my life is one of God's greatest favor.

Temples, Food, Motorbike and People; treasures of Hanoi.

This is my second trip to Hanoi. My first was in 2013 and these are the same things that made me fall in love more of the city. I can't deny the fact that I have fallen inlove. The city has a certain charm that will make you come back . A charm not all city in Vietnam possess.

1. Temples

Hanoi has a lot of remarkable temples. Every corner is full of it. A distinct display of art and religion. Everyday you will hear the sound orf the gong that seems to be calling you and inviting you to meditate.

Tip: You shoould walk around the city past noon. The weather is better and you will surely find a lot of friendly Vietnamese that are willing to guide you on your way.

2. Food

YUM!. That explains it all.
Your tummy will never go hungry in this city. They have a variety of noodle dishes. Simple and healthy dishes. Me being born in the Philippines is a natural rice-eater, but when I get here. I never had hard time adjusting with the food and the taste of it. My favorite? Bun Dau and Pho.

Tip: Eat on the streets, it's cheaper and you will have the chance to bargain for a free cup of tea. Which is usually 5thousand dong on restaurants. ;)

3. Motorbike

Some consider it annoying coz it can be very crazy. You will see them everywhere. Motor Drivers are everywhere. They can either be havin break or just waiting for customers. I consider Motorbikes as treasures of Hanoi because they represent almost the 50 percent of the identity of Hanoi. When I hear the word Hanoi. I always recall motorbike. Plus, it always save me from getting late.

Tip: Please just show the address to the motorbike driver. Don't attempt to pronounce. Because it can be really tricky. Hang Dong is the place where I stay and it is pronounce as "HANG DOM". ^_^

4. People

The most precious treasure that Hanoi has. At first, I was having hard time talking to people. Most of them doesn't speak English but that doesn't stop them from helping you. They might not understand you but they will voluntarily look for an English Speaker for you that can guide you. I can even walk in the middle of the night with my cellphone in my hand. I aggree that the city is safe not because of the government but because of the people. I admire their hospitality, hard work and discipline. Not on the road though but on the way they live their life.

Tip: They are fond of people who can speak English, so just flaunt that Smile and learn the word "CAM ON", believe me. You will be fine.

Cam On Hanoi. You will always be treasured!.

Christmas is the best celebration here in the Philippines.
The spirit of Giving, Loving and Forgiveness is observed.
I had a friend who asked me "why you said Merry Christmas when it's just
December 23,...?"
And then I said,  "Christmas is observe here in the Philippines as early as September
and lasts until the first week of January and was surprised by it.

Christmas Lights, Caroling , Simbang Gabi, and Noche Buena best describes Philippine Christmas.
And I would admit, there's none alike.
Filipinos celebrate Christmas eve with a sumptuous dinner after mass.
Where children have to kiss the hands of their godparents to be able to claim their presents.
Christmas is more for children.

Philippines have experienced devastating calamities lately,
But, it didn't stop us from celebrating Christmas.
In fact, it inspires a lot of people to give and share.
Donations are overflowing, to include manpower that comes not only from the Philippines
but internationally.
Thank you for giving smiles to the kids and to all the people affected.

Thank you for making Filipinos feel loved.
We will never forget it.

Philippines is the best place for Christmas because we Filipino
knows how to be happy beyond uncertainty. And that made me a proud individual.
(^__^)

Merry Christmas Everyone!!!...
