"Manila, my Manila" – June Pinoy blog carnival is live
Just a shout out that the June edition of the Philippine blog carnival is now live at Manilenya. Appropriately hosted I thought… Manilenya. Manila. Get it? And Melai did a great job rounding up the bloggers who joined this month’s project.
Check it out and reminisce about Manila in the old days. There are videos capturing the glory of the old city in the 1930s. Would you believe how Manila and Chicago are so alike architecturally? You’ll have deja vus if you’ve been to either one. Speaking of architecture, Filipina Soul featured one of the iconic landmarks in the city. Back to the present time, there’s a survival guide to living/visiting the metropolitan, and in case you’re wondering how much your dollar or euro will get you, check out a comparison.
Thanks Julius (the visionary behind this) and to the other participants - Panaderos, Chris, Pinay MegaMom, Ade Magnaye, and Melai for this round of the blog writing project.
The next edition will be around the end of July. Next month, we’ll feature another Philippine city and you can blog on anything about that place of interest, whether it’s your personal story, the culture, travel/tourism, experiences, food… anything within the locale. We hope the Philippine Blog Carnival will grow into a place where Filipino bloggers can enjoy each other’s writing and feel united in showcasing what our country is all about, both good and bad. Plus of course, load up on link-love.
Email me if you’re interested in participating and I’ll include you in the reminder list. Sa uulitin po!

Yey! Thanks to all those who joined and supported.
Till the next edition.
Hope to have my own contribution on the next PBC
…I volunteered to host because the topic really fit on me 
See you on next issue
Thanks for this wonderful initiative! I found out about it kinda late so my post was not as rich and interesting as I would have wanted it.
But I promise next time will only be better.
If and when you decide to feature Vigan and/or Laoag, I would like to host, please.
I join MegaMom in thanking the organizers of this carnival. I also found out about it rather late and only after one of the commenters on my blog brought my attention to it.
Anyway, I’m a Manila boy (and also a Metro Manila boy if I may add) so anything that would be about Metro Manila, I will be more than glad to participate. More power!
