FAQ

Where are you from?

I’m from New York.

What’s your ethnicity?

My parents immigrated here from the Philippines. Also, I took a DNA test (23andme), and I have other Asian ethnicities from China, India, and Sri Lanka, to name a few. I’m 1% European – mainly from Spain & Portugal. And I got some Native American ancestry – so I’m genuinely American, haha. ;P

Why did you create this blog?

Because I can, foo’! Haha, no, I just needed an outlet to share my lifestyle and travels with many more words than what social media can hold. Plus, I hope you find this blog informative and entertaining.^^

What camera do you use?

I currently use the Olympus Epl10. I have used other camera brands like Fujifilm, Canon, Panasonic, and Sony.

So do you take pictures of yourself, too?!

Indeed I do! I’ve gotten into self-portrait photography lately. I’ve learned that the best subject matter is yourself! Plus, the lovely Sorelle Amore has inspired me. 🙂

Where do you get the money to travel to all of these places?

It was from my parents and grandma, especially during family vacations. But as a solo traveler now, it’s just me. I teach English online! It’s something else that I enjoy doing, too. And I’m learning to invest as well. 😉

What languages do you speak?

English is my native tongue. 😛 Hablo el español. Und ich lerne gerne. 😛

Have you ever lived abroad before?

Yes! I lived in Madrid from September 2019 to March 2020. I taught and tutored in English, mainly to elementary-aged students. And then, the pandemic and quarantine started, so I had to return to New York. 😦 It was a great experience. It’ll be something I’ll go more in-depth into later.

What got you into traveling?

I remember traveling with my parents and siblings across the country when I was younger, including Yellow Stone National Park.

Traveling is definitely eye-opening or being more aware and exposed to other cultures and ways of life. The beauty of seeing the architecture, meeting people, learning their languages, and enjoying their cuisine makes traveling so thrilling.

Overall, it has been a childhood dream to explore every country for as long as my brain and limbs can function adequately. 😉
