  • Unexpected First Impressions of BGC and Jollibee 🍔, Manilla, Philippines! 🇵🇭 We got for a stroll around the posh area of Manila, Bonifacio Global City (BGC) and try the iconic Jollibee! 🇵🇭
    BGC: Skyscrapers meet street art as we explore the modern pulse of Manila. I also try to figure out why some dogs have nappies and wear shoes? And what’s with all the security guards in Manila?
    Jollibee: We dive into the beloved Filipino fast-food chain, and try Tuna Pie and the Yummy Cheeseburger.

    Security guards are not solely for security purpose in the Philippines. They also serve as doormen, valet, outdoor reception/information desk, etc. And if you don't like using Google Maps, they can easily point you to the right direction.

I never thought a stroll through a posh area and trying iconic fast food could be so entertaining and insightful!
    Your exploration of BGC, with its intriguing mix of skyscrapers and street art, provided a unique window into the modern pulse of Manila. And the Jollibee adventure was a treat! Tuna Pie and the Yummy Cheeseburger? Count me intrigued and hungry now. 🍔🥧 Your willingness to embrace local flavors and share your honest opinions adds a special touch to your travel vlogs.

    Tondo is a district located in Manila, Philippines. It is the largest, in terms of area and population, of Manila's sixteen districts,[2] with a census-estimated 654,220 people in 2020. It consists of two congressional districts. It is also the second most densely populated district in the city.
    BGC...Bonifacio Global City was named after Andrés Bonifacio y de Castro who was born on November 30, 1863, in Tondo, Manila...The Father of the Philippine Revolution.
