Filipinos loves balikbayan boxes because it shows how generous the person who is OFW that is working abroad. People love it when they receive something as a gift that’s why Filipinos loves balikbayan boxes.
The boxes where important on the reason that they’re relatives that works abroad remembered their family’s that they left at home, it shows more meaning than the material content inside the box.
It would feel that Filipinos doesn’t forget where they came from and that it shows us (Filipino) that we are very family oriented individuals, that we could give if we have something.
It symbolizes Filipino parents, that they are always there for you to guide you, to be there on that airport of life that they brought you in.
An anecdote that means Filipinos would always show their love for their families by remembering them and providing for them.
Most of the filipinos that work abroad suffer from homesickness because they just love being with their family and that it could get sad sometimes if you misses the person that you always talk to.
Louis Vuitton is a design expensive brand, most of us can’t afford to buy 1 so that means if he has a louis vuitton it means that the author is rich or it has something to do with materialistic things.
It really depends on the person if that person is going to be proud that he or she is a filipino, because filipino gets overlooked most of the time, most of other race think that filipinos were low and not worthy of treating as equal. If i were able to go abroad to work there i will be proud that i am a filipino, because i achieved something that most filipinos wouldn’t be able to do which is going abroad, not everyone has the opportunity or the ability to go to another country or to get out of the philippines. That is why it is something to be proud of.
An urban legend is a form of folklore develop within modern culture and the term turban legend has been a form of a modern folklore, forms develop in the sense of modern culture. Meaning that ofw’s are considered to be a legend because of what they did.
Turban legend significant is that it shows us the hardship of filipinos that were ofw’s on how they dealt with sadness and being away from their family, just to work on other countries unwillingly, because they need to provide for their families here in the philippines.

Me and my tropapips likes to cycle a lot and because of it we have been to many places like this one. This location is not known to many people because only the locals know this place it has a very deep waterfalls and the water is very very cold and clear we have a blast swimming in this waterfalls, me and my acquittance enjoy it too while we eat and swim at the same time.

This beautiful scenery is not so far from our place and you could also have a relaxing night if you spend the night in here. You can see large ships and also the sunset while you are here it is the best when I’m with my family and having a blast all night.

It’s nice to chill and relax here because it is cold and windy the view is also stunning and you could really feel the sea breeze specially at cold nights the look of the moon here is clear and having to chill with music is really something special.

IBA ZAMBALES!!! Is really far but we make it there in just 3 hours of cycling it is the most memorable place for me because it’s the farthest place that i go to on my cycling journey this is my last time cycling in far places because there’s school now i really enjoyed the experience it is something worth bragging about.
