There’s no place like home : Bisdak Babbles

It’s almost Christmas! Many people are going to colder places to experience “white Christmas”. Others prefer something like myrtle beach vacation rentals. In my case, nothing could contain my happiness and excitement to go home to the Philippines.

I’ve spent the last three Christmas seasons in Japan. Christmas day there is a work day. To avoid serious bouts of homesickness, I’d rather go to office.I was so glad to have some friends with me but still, there’s really no place like home. By home, not only just being with your family. Rather, being with your family and other special people, in the Philippines. I could not point out why spending Christmas in my country is so different, so special. It’s like the Christmas warmth and joy is enveloping you even if you don’t receive something to unwrap, even if you only have one lechon manok on the table. It’s just being there makes you feel so complete. For Filipinos like me, don’t you think so, too?
