Marriage Counseling: Not a Popular Approach but Why Consider it?
Marriage Counseling: Not a Popular Approach but why should you consider it? It’s been almost five years now since the day we exchange vows and life has always been under adjustments based on the new challenges, learnings and discoveries between me and my husband.

Oppsss, don’t get me wrong I’m not sharing about our love story, I’m just having that as an intro to another interesting topic of marriage and family life. It is sad that the world nowadays has been totally accepting realities of divorce. “Making…

10 Things I love about UAE
Ten (10) Things I love about UAE As a continuation of my 10th year anniversary of being an expat in the UAE for the past decade, I am sharing ten (10) things that I love most in the Emirates. I could give more than 10 but this are the ones that comes first. 1. Accessibility Everything is accessible. I mean transportation is efficient and bus timing are on time. Of course not perfect but surely you can depend on it. Access to schools, hospitals, parks, malls are easy. 2. Baqala This is a mini-store (sari-sari store) version of Abu Dhabi. So far I haven’t seen this in Dubai. But…

On Honesty & Dishonesty (Transpo Edition)
This is a long overdue blog post. I’ve intended to publish this while I was still in Cebu. It’s actually a short sharing on #Honesty & #Dishonesty in these five (5) types of transportation in the Philippines. TAXI – LTFRB set a new calibration scheme for taxis in Cebu. That is a 40 PHP flag down, an additional 13.50 PHP for every kilometer and 2 PHP running for every two (2) minutes waiting in a traffic. This set up though is only applicable if the taxi franchise has calibrated the new meter and has installed the new requirements before using this fare format. As I sat on the taxi…

Book Review : Tuesdays with Morrie
Photo taken from the shelves of Abu Dhabi Mall’s book store :) Among many writers, Mitch Albom is one of my favorite! My first ever book review published in Zee – Cebu’s Lifestyle Magazine was another book of him entitled For One More Day. This one is the second book I get to read from this brilliant author! “TUESDAYS with MORRIE“. From the title alone, it gives you an impression of a regular meeting (on Tuesdays) with a person named Morrie. What is the compelling story behind these Tuesdays will make you re-think about how to approach life. Many would say that “Tuesdays with Morrie” (TWM) is a dying…
