23. Pasalubong

Don't ask me what this is? Every filipino abroad should know what this means. And this means only one thing: gastos! Yep, but there's no escaping this Filipino tradition of gift-giving after arriving from abroad. It does pinch the pocket but then one has to be extra smart in planning. In my case, I plan much much ahead. So, as early as six months before my scheduled trip, I start buying gifts one-by-one. That way, the pinch does not hurt just as much. Today, I did just that.
