New member here. I am currently working for an American company and I am based at home. I love to cook and I am learning as much dishes as I can. I am also trying to learn how to bake. I lived in China for about 5 years and I can speak a little bit of Mandarin. I can understand a few Spanish, and if given a chance.. I want to be fluent in Spanish, Arabic and Japanese. My home in Philippines is about 2 hours away from Manila, and not near to any beaches. So, not ideal for travelers to stay in. But, if I could help someone to who is visiting Philippines, for advice on places to stay and places to visit.. I would be happy to. :)
