Pasalubong (Souvenir)

This is a candid /stolen photo of these two ates. They even looked at me when they heard the click of the camera 🤭
And after I took this photo I asked them how’s their Christmas. They answered that it was ok, but being away from our loved ones it is not 100% ok. We miss our family way back in out country. These ates will fly to the Philippines for a short vacation to be with their family. And they are buying some tees and other souvenirs (pasalubong) for their children and family. Foreign domestic workers mostly buying things for their children and family, they are our top priority. One of them brings luggage with her to put the stuff she’s buying for her family. Seeing them happy, providing their needs is the most important thing. Other might say MDW are buying lots of stuff for their families, yes that’s true because this is our way to show our love specially to our children since we aren’t there to take care of them instead. The other ate even said we should sacrifice for our children’s future. Despite of our sadness and loneliness we manage to smile.
