Finally I’m back in the Philippines.

I do not care about the trademark traffic in Manila nor about the humidity of this megapolis, it simply feels great to be back in my beloved country.

My flight from Rome to Manila took about 18 hours – 14 hours of flying time plus three hours of stopover in Dubai.

Four friends met me at the Ninoy Aquino International Airport and they all made me feel so special. On my way to my residence in New Manila, Quezon City I was so impressed at the cleanliness of the streets in Paranaque, Mandaluyong, Makati, and San Juan.

I will be having my vacation for about month in Cebu and in January 2006 I will formally begin my communications ministry at the Communication Foundation for Asia(CFA) in Sta. Mesa, Manila.
