Who would have thought that this blog that started January 2007 became a finalist on the last 2009 Philippines Blog Awards? I only found out after a month-long vacation in Thailand and The Philippines; unfortunately the awarding ceremony was over. A video of the awarding ceremony would be fun to watch and to emerge as a winner is the epitome of blogging happiness. But I know there's always next year and the year after that. Who knows' Digifotoblog.com was chosen as one of the... Basahin pa

Because I am a Filipino'?

From Travel blog of an OFW, 2 years ago, Read 12 times. Katulad na Artikulo

Yesterday, I was checking in to board a flight to Bangkok via Cebu Pacific at the Diosdado Macapagal International Airport in Clark Air Base in Angeles City, Philippines when an American started asking me questions about Pattaya, Thailand. And when I told him what I know about Pattaya, he asked me why I speak very good english. My answer was “because I am a Filipino.” Then he started asking me questions like, what I do for living, am I a call center agent (probably because of my... Basahin pa

It's never too late!

From Travel blog of an OFW, 2 years ago, Read 0 times. Katulad na Artikulo

It's September 11, 2009, eight years passed after the horrifying attacked in New York City. Do you still remember' Today, I was supposed to leave my job site en-route to my scheduled R&R but it was cancelled. But if it weren't cancelled, I wouldn't probably have a chance to make amends to one of my best friend. As they say, everything happened for a reason, and this is the best! Share This Basahin pa

Air Supply Concert in Clark Expo Pampanga

From Travel blog of an OFW, 2 years ago, Read 11 times. Katulad na Artikulo

Middle of last year, Air Supply my favorite duo from the land down under held a concert in the Philippines and I wasn't able to watch it because I left Philippines a week before their concert in Araneta Coliseum, Manila. I thought that would be the last chance I would see them, and I was very disappointed. That might be the last time they'll perform in Philippines, let's accept it they are getting old and their voice range is not that high as it used to be. Why did I say that' I saw a... Basahin pa

Canon EOS 30D Flash

From Travel blog of an OFW, 2 years ago, Read 0 times. Katulad na Artikulo

(Caption: Photo taken from Nokia N97 Camera) For the past few years, I've been thinking of buying a flash for my Canon EOS 30D and I was a bit hesitant because of its price tag. The one that I liked was Canon Speedlite 580EX and that time the price was more than $500.00. I thought it's not practical to buy a flash that is so expensive. Well, two weeks ago I was looking for that specific flash again online and after few hours that day I was talking to one of my colleagues and found out... Basahin pa
