What I Expect When I Go Back To The Philippines?

This blog post will be a short "journal entry".

So were boarding a flight on the 16th (I forgot the exact date) to go back to the Philippines for Christmas. There's so many things I expect.


  • The Weather. Goodness. From a snowy wonderland here in Stockholm to a humid, tropical place near the equator. I feel that I'll sense this even in my first hour after landing. That's a 30 degree (Celsius) difference!

  • The Food. (Extreme Emphasis on Rice)  As a Filipino, I really do enjoy eating rice. But the past months of living in Stockholm, we're trying to eat healthier stuff, including stripping our rice from 1 to 3 portions of rice (breakfast, lunch and dinner) per day to 1 to 2 portions of rice per week. And we try to eat brown rice here, unlike white rice in the Philippines. But don't get me wrong, rice is awesome.

  • The People. There are about 100 MILLION people living in the Philippines now, and there are about 9 Million living in Sweden. Take note that Sweden is also larger than the Philippines area wise.  

Merry (Advance) Christmas by the way :)
