Filipinos are naturally creative and artistic.
I'm fascinated by the Philippines because I'm from here. I was born here. I'm a Filipino.
Don't say Fili, sister. Say Pili. In Tagalog, pili means to choose. Pino means fine. Pilipino equals 'fine choice.
Darts is huge in the Philippines and Pacquiao is much bigger over there than David Beckham is here. I'm happy playing darts against him but I wouldn't want to box him.
I would take the jeepney all the way to Angeles City, and that's how I got introduced to break dancing.
I miss Philippine mangoes, you just can't get them here. Mangoes, you can't get lanzones here, you can't get siniguelas, all these fruits that I grew up with.
Seeing lights being put up along the street and these colored lanterns called parols being put up at people's houses makes Christmas in Philippines magical.
The Philippines is where Asia wears a smile. Beautiful products can only be made by happy people.
There is so much more to the Philippines than just Manila. The beauty is in the neighboring islands.
My mom grew up in the Philippines, and she would use coconut oil. I put that in my hair always - literally, natural coconut oil that you use for cooking. I use that for my cuticles and dry spots on my skin too.
I know everyone in the Philippines is happy.
Everywhere we go, we make sure that PAL displays the warmth, hospitality, and everything that is good about the Philippines and its people.
