Balikbayan Diaries, Day 97/100 “Sovereignty” 👑 📦🇵🇭 Foreigners are finding ways to invest in the Philippines… so why aren’t we? I didn’t grow up thinking about investing here. To me, this was just a place you visit, not a place you build. But being here and seeing it up close changed that. I started noticing people from the outside buying condos, leasing land, and starting businesses. They’re finding ways to get in. And a lot of us aren’t even looking. Last year alone, billions of dollars came into the Philippines from foreign investors. So the question is simple. Why aren’t we participating in our own economy? This isn’t just about real estate. It’s about ownership. It’s about building something here. It’s about having a stake in where this country is going. Because if we don’t invest in it, someone else will. And we don’t get to complain about what we don’t participate in. If this made you think, good. #balikbayandiaries #balikbayan #filipino

🇵🇭 Pack With Me For The Philippines 📦 For those that don’t know. It’s tradition to bring Balikbayan boxes with you when you travel home. Filipinos don’t have the same luxuries we have in the US. Balikbayan boxes are an important example that bind immigrants to their home nation. ✈️ Click the link in my bio for all of my travel essentials #travelbag #asmr #travel #travelreels #luggage #philippines #packing #asmrsounds #satisfying #manila #balikbayan #filipino

Week 1 in Iloilo 🇵🇭 and we’re already learning a lot about the transition. Things we don’t miss: the cold, the commute, and the cost of living. But there are a few things from the U.S. that we definitely feel right away… Top 3 things we miss so far: 1️⃣ Driving in the U.S. We definitely miss our Teslas 😅 and the order of the roads. Driving here is an adventure. Lanes are more of a suggestion and the bumps remind us why we chose a taller, sportier car. 2️⃣ Efficiency Back home everything is quick and digital. Here it still feels very analog sometimes. Handwritten receipts, 3 hours to open a bank account, and half a day to activate a new eSIM. 3️⃣ Our people (and Shadow 🐶) Of course we miss family, friends… and our dog Shadow. Thankfully he’s being spoiled and well taken care of. Still, we’re excited for this new chapter and know this is all part of the adjustment. #LifeInThePhilippines #balikbayan #PhilippinesLiving

CINDEFUCKINGRELLA AND THE 11:30 SHUTDOWN Took @pmiralao, briefly home from the US with her daughter @sidneymsm, to dinner at Flames, @discoveryprimea, with her husband @yarimiralao. Also with us were @martian807 and her daughter @_isabellerma, and @catheaquino and her husband @guyonchichay. When the kids followed, including Isabel's boyfriend @escmiv, @eiyoaquino and his girlfriend @gabbiedayrit7, and @martaaquino22 and her boyfriend @enzo.zapataa, we moved next door to the rooftop bar Edge. I asked if we were ever this wholesome at their age. They said no, not even close. We never went out with our parents. Pia reminded me I was the only one who ever talked to them. I made a point of engaging my friends’ moms and dads, not to be polite, but because I was curious, even about the ones who thought I was corrupting their children. It was fun until the bar shut us down at 11:30. I asked if we were in Perth! Even the kids looked betrayed. Years ago in New York I got into an argument at 2 a.m. because everything was closed and I said the city was a lie. You cannot call yourself the city that never sleeps if you are in bed by two. That title used to belong to Manila. Used to. #catchup #balikbayan #greenhouse #manilanights

COME TO THE KITCHEN CABARET I remember, though vaguely, when Singing Cooks and Waiters Atbp opened in its Roxas Boulevard location in the early 1990s. I had never been there. It is an old place, already institutional by its very survival in a field focused on the new. Still, the experience was fresh to me. I was caught by surprise when, by my third spoonful of bulalo, a waiter brandishing a ladle burst into the Apo Hiking Society hit "Panalangin." It was not surprising that a waiter sang at a restaurant with such a name. It was a welcome surprise that he was actually good. That first number jumpstarted our balikbayan party. There was a duet of the Dolly Parton and Kenny Rogers charttopper "Islands in the Stream." Then came a chorus with every member of the kitchen staff, front and back, belting out a Tagalog version of "Be Our Guest" from Disney. It was kitschy, high energy, and loud. It was cabaret and full of character, replete with a fire show and choreographed moves. At no point did I want them to stop. The performance was so fluid and engaging that before long the whole family joined in. My nephew Xander played the guitar while the waiters sang "Buwan" and "Ere" by Juan Karlos. My niece Rafa took over the strings and sang "Kahit Maputi na ang Buhok Ko" while my other nephew Aldi danced along with all the balikbayans in our party and my other Titos, Titas, and cousins. That was a good lunch. It was a really good show. #ComeToTheCabaret #SingingCooksAndWaiters #KitschyKitchen #Balikbayan

Balikbayan Diaries, Day 20 “Bridge” 🌁📦🇵🇭 In America, I was never American enough. In the Philippines, I’m not Filipino enough. For a long time I thought something was wrong with me. Growing up abroad teaches you how to adapt early. You learn how to read rooms. Change accents. Blend in. Not because you’re fake but because belonging feels like survival. What I didn’t know was that psychology actually has a name for this experience. Millions of Filipinos grow up between two cultures. Too Filipino in the West. Too American back home. You look like you belong everywhere… yet feel rooted nowhere. Add in our history, our language, and the legacy of colonization, and that confusion gets even heavier. We were taught English to survive. Then judged for speaking it too well. Parang lagi kang kulang. Like you’re never enough. But maybe we’re not broken. Maybe we’re not lost. Maybe we were never meant to choose one world. Maybe we’re bridges. If this resonated, you’re not alone. And you’re not imagining it either. #balikbayandiaries #balikbayan #filipino

Flashback to our trip to Baguio! So happy I got to spend more time with my grandma after our Dagupan trip! We didn’t get to visit much of the tourist spots because it was super crowded that weekend but made sure the kids got to see the Lion head landmark! I’m really enjoying the time with family! Can’t believe we only have 8 days left in Manila! . . . . . #baguio #balikbayan #summervacation #philippines

Balikbayan Diaries, Day 28 /100 “Balikbayan Box” 📦🤍🇵🇭 The Balikbayan box started in the 1970s. As millions of Filipinos left home to work abroad, shipping companies created a cheaper way to send goods back to the Philippines. What began as cargo quickly became culture. These boxes carried more than clothes and canned food they carried love, sacrifice, and the quiet promise of “I’m doing this for you.” Growing up overseas, my parents used to send these boxes to me. Every one felt like Christmas. Not because of what was inside but because it meant someone far away was thinking about us. Now I’m back in the Philippines, opening them from the other side. Not as a kid waiting by the door but as an adult finally understanding what it took to send them. The Balikbayan box isn’t just delivery. It’s a bridge between families, countries, and generations. If you grew up with one of these, you already know. 🇵🇭📦 #balikbayandiaries #balikbayan #filipino
