VISITING HOME
I have mentioned a couple of times in my twitter account about our family trip in Philippines. We were so excited about it and here comes the moment we’ve waited patiently. And we’re very much excited about it. This will be the the first time for hubby to finally meet my family, especially my father. He only met my sister when he visited me in Cebu for the first time back in 2010. And we weren’t sure about us yet during that time. But now that were married and have a kid, it is very important that he should meet my family. And now is the perfect time for that.

Yes I’m visiting my family, relatives and friends in Philippines. After being away from home for almost three years now is the perfect time to be home again. As I write this my heart beats so fast because it’s only two days before the trip. Suitcases are packed and we will just wait the day, Tuesday to start off this trip. We’re leaving Tuesday, July 30 at 6pm. The route will be Helsinki- Beijing- Manila.

Our first stop is Beijing. We chooses the long time interval between flights so we have a chance to explore Beijing city while waiting for the next flight to Manila. We intentionally do that so this trip is kind of “double purpose”. Both going there and coming back we have long stop at Beijing. We have one whole day free going there. And one day one night coming back. Hotel is already booked in advance. And I have already my Chinese visa, of course! On our first stop, we planned to explore the city. Like a short day tour, i think! And coming back we will check out the Great Wall. This will be so much fun and I’m so excited for this. I hope everything goes well smoothly and perfectly as planned. Crossing my fingers that we will be able to visit all the places we planned to visit safe and sound. God bless us and this trip.
Photos were taken at Shangri- la resorts in Mactan, Cebu. I used to work there. Such a beautiful place.
This is a scheduled post so I’m already enjoying my vacation in Philippines when you guys read this. Also there might be a possibility that this blog will be empty for few days or weeks. I have few scheduled blog posts. And i will try to update this blog as long as I can when I’m there. We will not bring any laptop on this trip but i will try to borrow one from my sister. I’d love to update my travel diaries as soon as possible when I’m there.
