So,

I have just returned from a trip to Philippines. I am 21 and the last time I went I was 12. I was much too young for the culture to have a massive impact on me, but DAMN this time it’s different.

Although I’m a ‘half-cast’ born and raised in Australia, I can honestly say I have never felt so at home like the way I felt when I was in Manila.

Once I arrived back in Sydney I cried for 3 days straight because I missed Philippines so much. Is this normal? Even now I avoid looking at the photos I took because it makes me miss it even more!

I’m dying to go back, if I didn’t have work, boyfriend, etc here I would drop everything and live there in a heartbeat.
