On Becoming Filipina in 10 months...

Islands=27 So now that I'm spending about 10 months in the Philippines, I'll be living the Manila life, reconnecting with my extended family and hopefully learning my Tagalog. I'll also be tallying how many times people ask me if I have a boyfriend and how times they tell me I'm fat. McFattie: 14 McSingle: 22

Fort Santiago with Tyler

Tyler came to stay with me for a few days.  I decided to show him Fort Santiago in Manila because I'd never been there.  It was pretty neat and historical.  I've never visited before since Manila isn't usually a travel destination for the fam. 

Anyways, I learned a lot about Jose Rizal and it was a beautiful day to do some sightseeing.

This is a little chapel we found.  It was all boarded up so we didn't get to see the inside.

I found this pretty little butterfly flitting around but it wouldn't stay in one spot long enough for me to take a halfway decent picture of it.
