Being Filipino-New Friends, More Work

New Friends

"I need some time to digest everything you said", Nfally from The Gambia said, when I was talking about my company, plan and inititatives in Nigeria. He worked in Lagos, Port Harcort and Abuja, where we want to operate. Last 8 years traveling, worked as an English teacher in Beijing in different schools, though not got work permit. Now in Manila, waiting for tourist visa for Dubai, he thinks it'll be easy for him to get a job in Dubai and any company will apply for his work permit.
"Any1 know how can go to Batangas port?" Heidi from Switzerland was asking to people at Hostel. I said her how can go there and not have to spend much. She is a ski instructor, when not ski, makes cheese, lives in a small village, 1 hour drive from St Moritz, "where only reach people live" she said. Last 2 years, during winter she is traveling, 2 years back traveled in all countries in Central America, last winter traveled in Caribbean and this year whole south Asia. Already traveled in Thailand, Vietnam, Myanmar, Malaysia and now in Manila. Her friend lives in a small island in Puerto Galera and she is going to meet her. She loves traveling like a true Aquarius, loves scuba diving. I said her to dive/snorkel once in the water near Big La Laguna beach in Sabang, Puerto Galera. Gave her route map to reach there. She said she'll be there. She wanted to talk more but I was working.
Met 1 lady, from Cebu, a civil engineer, working in a real estate company in Manila, got a condominium from the company, that she said, but every week end she stays in the hostel now I am in, she said all staffs working here are her friend. She said real estate sector is booming in Manila, when I was coming to Gil Puyat from Batangas, saw new townships, new buildings, malls, construction completed or going on, targetted to Filipinos living abroad or working in booming BPO-Call Center sector in Philippines.

More work

When I was in Sabang and internet not working, not having skype call with my colleagues, only thinking about work, projects in the pipe line. After reaching hostel in Manila, started working like a crazy. Editing all presentations, marketing collaterals and loving my work. 1 corner of my laptop screen broke 2 weeks back and now having problem to close laptop. After reaching Mumbai, 1st thing will do to repair it in nearest HP service center.
Next couple of days meet CEO/Owner of some companies in Quezon City, Manila and already excited.
