Welcome

Thank you everyone! I will surely enjoy being a member of InterNACHI.

Special thanks to Nick.

Ahh...is that a kubo in Iloilo perhaps?

[Maricel E. Fianza]

Hi Micheal, it is pretty amazing you know places here in the Philippines and can even speak Tagalog, or are you a Filipino too?

>> that's a kubo in one of the places in Benguet.

No Maricel I am not Filipino, I just spent some time there in Manila, Makati and just outside Manila on the South Super Highway at Ayala Alabang. I was building a facility in a duty free zone and in my spare time I was lucky enough to be able to visit several beautiful parts of the Philippines and have really good memories of my time there (well, mostly good memories ) and made several good friends while there. I'd love to go back to visit some time.

oH I see. That's awesome! You can visit here again, this time maybe here in Baguio, the summer capital of our country. I once worked in Manila also.
It's nice to know you've had fun and collected good memories here in our country. Hope to see you soon.
