RE: The Calamity that Shifted my Entire Outlook on Life

You reminded me of Typhoon Yolanda. It's always hard for us Filipinos especially those typhoon stricken communities to bounce back from calamities and you definitely shared what "bayanihan" is all about.

It would be nice though that our government would focus more on evacuation centers and safety measures every time calamity struck just like how Japan is always fast to respond to such. We still have a lot to improve on our system. What side of the Philippines are you from?

I agree! But it seems like the government's priority nowadays is far from what our country really needs the most 😔 It's also sad that the resilience of Filipinos every calamity is being romanticized without thinking about it's deeper and long-term effects to the victims.

I am from Isabela (region 2) by the way! 🤗

Yeah, Hoping for a better governance in the next election. 😅

Nice! I haven't been to Isabela. Perhaps I'll ping you once my itchy feet will stumble there.

Yes please! I would love to ❤️ Will also post soon about our hidden gems here 😊
