It’s straight out of ‘Home Alone’ the movie.
The Parreno family (grandparents, father, mother, and 18-month old son) had just arrived as Canadian immigrants in Vancouver’s airport. After the long flight from the Philippines, they had to unpack and repack their luggage, presumably for customs inspections. They only had 10 minutes before they had […]

It’s two days before the Filipinos’ favorite holiday of the year… CHRISTMAS - PASKO!
In our culture, this 3-month event is a big huge thing!
Yep, it starts in September, way before the air gets cold. Christmas lights, lanterns (parols), and decors are up. Christmas songs rock the radio and mall stores.
It doesn’t end until the Three […]
