After my 5 weeks summer vacation in the Philippines thanks God we're home safe.My 5 weeks stayed was amazing.I've than a
lot of things,for my family and to my little corporate business. I was so glad to have such a good loving husband who did support and be my driver everyday. Going back and fort to the City and province that he never complained.
Cebu's traffic is much terrible this year,I cannot imagine that the people have suffered economy crises since lot of multi cabs and other types of vehicles that I've seen in the traffic. we did our shopping in SM City Cebu there you can see a lot of rich people who drove their luxury cars bringing their yaya's and their drivers.
This kind of living that you cannot see here in Sweden, because people take care of their own child and drive their own car since almost everybody have a driving licence besides to have drivers and yaya's here are expensive enough.
The living standard in the Philippines is not so expensive if you have money,not so high tax and yaya's can only have 2t pesos monthly salary without insurance.If you are rich, most people honored you which makes me feel sad ever since before. But that's reality in my country which i hated most,their is no equal standard of living.
The 2ND week after arrival we drove to the province we're my parents lived,there you can observed the big different between the life in the city.People are so simple and thankful enough to have their complete meal for the whole day.I really like most stayed in the province,where I myself and my husband never think to open our emails and mobile phone.Their was 1 week that we never know what date was and the day.We never mind the TV ,we just listened to FM radio who played beautiful songs.
This is the life that I missed right now while writing this blog,simple and calm and no stress at all.Yes living in the modern world is good and lot of advantages but it's also stressful and hard.
tomorrow I will continue writing about my Philippine vacation and downloads some nice photo's that I captured.

the province

Here it's warm about 28-30 degree everyday,that makes you sweaty even in the early morning. But it's nice .. In the province I've seen a lot of things that I missed for a year.My brother have 4 dogs in the house that used to play in the backyard early in the morning.

During the night I enjoyed taking picture of different species.No phone ringing during the day and my husband and I never think for the month date and so with the day.We just relax and take it easy all the time.

The planned for Hongkong short tour was cancelled because I felt asleep inside the airport.Anyway my husband and I is in Cebu for 2 days now.It's nice to be in the family.
A lot of things have been change after our 1 and half year visit back 2007-2008.I'm talking for example SM Cebu.We've been there today with the rest of my family and wow!It's getting bigger and bigger and they have a safe parking area that only cost 15 pesos for the whole day.Done shopping with my family.
But the things that never change here was the terrible traffic,during the day.Otherwise everything was perfect,nice to back home again.I try to download pictures next time.I have a little problem with internet connection sometimes.Thanks for reading guys.Have a nice day

About Me
- Abeth
- From Cebu and landed here in Northern Europe a Nordic Country on the Scandivian Peninsula ..soon to be a Mom. Life living outside Philippines is interesting and a lot of challenge ,of course difficult because of the language.People in Sweden speak Swedish and I need to step back from the basic just to learn their language and to have a job.I created this blog for my family and friends in Philippines,easy for them to update my life here. My other reason is to keep updating my english language.
