Baloy Beach Olongapo, Luzon, Philippines, +63-47-223-9430-
... i was at work for about 12 hours. I went home only to go to sleep and to come back this morning at 8. Actually I did not even go directly to the office I went to the Justice Hall.
The Justice hall is the equivalent to a court house in America. Buklod is involved in helping any women who need legal help and currently there are two cases of child sexual trafficking. Since all of the court proceedings are in English I was asked to go ...
Where to even begin! I guess I will start with some background info. Since I have just started this blog and have left out a lot of information I should explain where I work. I am currently assigned to work for Buklod Women's center. I really love the place. It was started by women who were former prostitutes in order to help support women who are currently prostitutes. They do this through a drop in center, livelihood projects, education as well as health ...
Olongapo, Luzon, Philippines karey42... Ni(2) Cor(corinthians) shi(4) indicates 2Cor. chapter4 related to a verse, ".. treasure in earthen vessel". Senzin means saints in Japanese. We had a sweet time in the fellowhip of life which was very refreshing.
Not often we meet a person leaves you with sweet impression and today we met those kind of people by the Lord's arrangement. we will remember them and pray for them that we run the race together.
Today we were going to go to Tree Top Adventure with Lucy and Parousia. It was very hot day. We went on the canopy ride. I went with Parousia and a guide named Ricky. We were more than hundred feet up and we went from tree to tree. We had gear and a helmet. Ricky said that one of the trees was used to make toothpicks, matches and chopsticks. It took forty five minutes.
Then we got back and I and Parousia ...
... too. They cut off the sugar cane and squash the sugar cane until sugar comes out.
It took two hours to get there. Dad said it was a bit dodgy. Dad's friend in the training named Mark Kim was there and with his wife Lucy and their son Parousia (which means the lord is coming). We came to Courtyard Inn at 10:00am. I and Michelle played in the ...
... won't stop the flooding, or be constructive in any way so why waste time worrying. It is something I hope I can take away from my experience. They are also very resiliant. They might lose everything they have but they just start back up again. I was amazed at how calm everyone was when I was getting all nervous about the flooding.
During the floods we, the peace corps trainiees, spent about a week in a city about an hour away. We were able to go bowling which ...
... The intelligence officer told me that this man was probably not even a real police officer, despite him having a uniform and a motorcycle with POLICE written on it. I asked why I fake police officer would drive me a real police station and he said that they have civilians that help them out with security issues in the city. We drove around for 10 minutes but without knowing where I started, I was unable to locate the house again. I have a ...
Angeles, Luzon, Philippines aaronpolarbear... Det første som står på tapeten når vi returnerer er gokart turnering på en bane inne på den Amrikanske basen. Farten er bra høy og Kim og Harald møtes i et kraftig sammenstøt. Heldighvis blir ingen alvorlig skadet. Den lokale helten Vidar vinner turneringen og vi må tilbake neste lørdag for å forsøke å ta seieren tilbake. Vi går litt på shoppingsenter og hadler litt klær og andre ting vi trenger før vi tar oss en kveld på byen. De tre partygutter.
Olongapo, Philippines kimharaldroger... the van climbed into the mountains and he pointed out Taal Volcano to me. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taal_Volca no. This was a place high on K and my list of touristy things to do while in the Philippines, but we figured it would be too far out for us to see. Shortly thereafter, we pulled into a nice restaurant called the Josephine where he treated me to a nice meal. He had asked me earlier if I wanted Filipino food or ...
Talisay, Philippines markimberly... see the sights without so much noise and so many people on the streets. The bus trip back down the same road as I travelled along two days before and til the turn off to Subic Bay at San Fernando was full of action packed movies as usual which helped to pass the hours by. The road through the hills to Olongapo offered nice views of hills and eventually the sea, but the whole side of the road was covered in shacks and ...
