“Maybe you had to leave in order to really miss a place; maybe you had to travel to figure out how beloved your starting point was.” – Jodi Picoult
So how long has it been? It was 2016 when we last stepped into my beloved homeland. Plan was to go back in 2020 but that didn’t happen because you know why.
It is now 2023 and I am feeling quite tearful as well as excited. It is lovely to see the hustle and bustle of the Philippines once again after 7 long years.

So for now it is goodbye Melbourne. I shall be back in 3 weeks! Wish us luck that there won’t be any airport problems and we will be safe healthwise.

I am really having a great time. But sadly , no time to blog. Will be writing about my wonderful Memories when I get back to Melbourne.
Thats great Teresa, hoping to read all about it when you return.
Maybe you can just post a photo now and again 🙂
I guess I will post snippets of my time here!
Yes you should otherwise it will be too overwhelming when you get back
