I miss living in Manila but the best thing about moving farther south is the fresh air and beautiful scenery.

• I agree with you Rachel. I would be glad to live where the air is clean, not just for me but especially for Julian who has asthma. Anyway, I can probably relocate anywhere in the Philippines and still continue teaching, after all I have a license. If not, I can do more paid blogging

Rach is right, Manila’s air quality is so poor. That’s why there are so many kids with respiratory ailments. Love the pic, saan yan?

• Cookie, that is the back part of hubby’s brother’s wife’s parents (magulo ba) in Greenville Tagaytay. They got a lot along the border of the subdivision so they got that view. The houses were rather small but who cares? It is super lamig. Their grandchildren relocated too, somewhere in Silang. The children had asthma and during the first few weeks daw, they had runny noses because they were breathing clean air which was clearing their lungs from any impurities. After that, everything was ok na. Sarap no, if only we can live there so that our children with asthma can breathe properly without the aid of nebulizer. Last summer we stayed there, the children were playing outdoors, Julian did not even sweat and guess what, he had a runny nose too and did not have an attack kahit na nasa arawan. Btw, the houses there are not really high-end in terms of the price. Some of those living there are retirees from America.

Sabi ko na nga ba’t Tagaytay yan. Kakarelax yang ganyang view.

• Nice, this part is on the other side of the wonderful view of the volcano. But it is cool nonetheless. I wouldn’t mind staying here since it is like having your own rainforest on your backyard
