    Hi, Mandy. Your dessert was TURON (TUU-rohnn), ripe plantain with jackfruit in a lumpia (LOOM-pyah) wrapper and fried in hot oil with sugar tossed in. Yeah, if you stay for your very first time in a cheap area, it could look dodgy. But you just have to wak, jeepney, metro to more interesting bits. A lot of vegeyarian looking dishes will be flavored with animal protein or essence/sauce, so please do ask if you want to avoid animal protein altogether. Pandesal is pan de sal or bread [made with] salt, a bread roll. Eat hot with Philippine tsokolate (deepest darkest hot chocolate, no milk involved) My faves are chicken adobo, caldereta, pancit, turon, biko... Entrees are seasoned to eat with and be balanced by plain rice, sonplease follow suite to maximize yiur dining experience. 😊

Such brilliant detail and greatly appreciated❤❤❤After my carry on was put out at wrong bus stop will using a 30l backpack and it will be under my feet on buses in future!!! Now you ve shown how looks a lot easier as I found no info to cheap public buses when I went travelling and ended up spending too much on connecting travel! ❤❤❤❤ The airfare is v high for one month free visa stsy from Uk but now watching your amazing tips snd trip it has definitely encouraged me.

      That's a great question, Leslie. The airline asked to see onwards tickets when we boarded in Perth, but Immigration only wanted to see our visas when we arrived. We were fortunate to have been able to get a 90-day visa for the same price as the standard 30-day one (I think it was 90 days 🤔) as the Sri Lankan government wanted to encourage tourists, but do check as I think it's back to 30 days now.

    rizal wanted philippines to be part of spain and for filipinos to have equal standing with the spanish and have filipino represenatives in spain,but spain dont want to have equal footing with filipinos.and reason why they kill rizal because he wanted equality between spaniards and filipinos,he wanted philippines to be recognized as province of psain ,and also he wrote book which is requirement for every highschool students in philippines to read and learn, and also do a reenactment or a play.the two books are el filibusterismo "the reign of greed" and noli me tangere english meaning "do not touch me" .you should buy the book if you like to reading

      Thank you so much for sharing this information about Rizal with us, paulgeorge It was fascinating learning about him in the Rizal Museum in Fort Santiago, which we showed in this video: ua-cam.com/video/ds1fqOqD0R8/v-deo.htmlsi=YHXug0fnLm4hSUVk Rizal was such an incredibly intelligent and gifted person, and I can so see why he is a national hero 🇵🇭♥️
