[LinP3] Phone research


I have been doing research on the phone issue over there. Thanks to all that helped While doing so I found a company called
Aryty<https://www.aryty.com/join.aspx?bt=1&ac=b563b4c5-5306-4d15-8175-7a7d28011b7b>
You can use them to send you RP pals "loads" (minutes or units as far as I can tell) on their phones. You get 150P just for joining.
It maybe common knowledge to you salty PI vets but I thought I would put that out there.
Also in my research I have not found any high end phone for sale over there. Palm Treo, Windows Moble etc. I am a PDA addict. Do they just not have them over there? I have also been unable to find spec for cell operation over there. Would an Unlocked phone from the US work there? If so what type.

[LinP3] Re: Widower Moving to Phils from USA with 2 TEENAGE DAUGHTERS...good

My wife used to be a manger of a Filipino ticket office in the Silicon Valley. She has seen a number of Filipino families leave for the States when their children were young and try to return years later. Their children older now couldn't adapt back to the Philippines and had to leave again. Least we forgot we had a fourteen year girl who used to write on this board about a year ago. Her father forced her to come here and she felt so lonely.
As I said before my daughter came here in 4/7 and is going to school registered as
a Filipino. She speaks and writes the language and had been here many times before. Her grandparents came from the Philippines and lived with us in California when she was young. She was the one who wanted to attend school here and I reminded here of the downfalls of coming but she insisted she wanted to come here. She came in the hottest time of the year but she loves it here and it has surprised me. She was immediately accepted because she can speak the language. She tells me she likes school here better because her female classmates treat here like a sister. They often hold hands and interlock arms here which at first seemed a little strange when I saw that in the states. She is one of the top students in the class expect for in Civics which is Filipino history which she gets help from her cousins. However again my daughter is
half Filipino who could speak the language and also watched Filipino cable back in the states. She grew up watching half Filipino shows and also listening to the music thanks to her mother. Her ability to fit in here so easily has even surprised her mother and grandmother. The only problem she has is getting a little freedom from her mother. Sometimes she wants to ride the Jeepany home with her friends or go to watch movies with them on the weekends. Her grandmother pressures her mother(daughter) to raise her the old fashion way. I have been able to convince them to give her some freedoms but she has to text them constantly so they worry less.

[LinP3] Bringing pets


How much hassle would it be to bring my dog to the Philippines?
If so would it just be a bad idea.

[LinP3] Safety over there


I broke the news to my family that I am planning to relocate abroad today
and mention that the Philippines or Bali are my top choices.
They had concerns regarding Terrorist (they are all Baptist so that incident
is fresh in their minds) and being shook down by cops.
Any thoughts?
Any data I can have to a leave these fears?

Thanks in advance
Mark

Re: [LinP3] dessert recipes

There's have a lot of Filipino desserts that you can cook some are a bit heavy like kakanin made of rice flour, rice, these are not actually desserts those are for snacks. Some are baked or no baked some are just simple. Be specific what would you like to try. Some are easy and simple. I also would like to try beko we call it. It's made of glutinous rice cooked in coconut milk and brown sugar you can make it a new taste for adding caraway seeds or cardamom seeds while cooking. There are cook books that have limited local desserts. You can try mango pudding, rice pudding, maja blanca, I make apple, or peach crumbles so far. I missed the cherry cobbler though! I guess you can buy a Philippine desserts book from National bookstore. Sometimes
when I really want quickie dessert I just cubed ripe banana Tundan or lakatan fragrant banana then put a table spoon brown sugar, little pinch of salt and cinnamon add fresh milk and 2 cubed of iced. Or you can add other fruits like cubed cantaloupe. You can warm the milk first if you want with cardamom seeds or any flavorings that you want. There are endless possibilities in the Philippines just be creative.

HTH,
Carol H.
