My December holidays in the Philippines Pt. 2: Kabarkada

Sharing more photos from my recent trip to the Philippines.

This is the big Christmas tree at the ELJ lobby.

Hard liquor at my friend Toni’s house. Rye tagged along!

At Mister Kabab with my former colleague and my former boss!

Dropped by Studio 23 where I worked previously. I miss my colleagues!

Lara’s stayed on with Studio 23 longer than I have. More than five years!

My seniors DJ (L) and Jerome (R) with Rye in the center.

Singing and dancing to Beyonce’s COUNTDOWN.

Nice to still see Bistro Deli at The Loop ABS-CBN!

KUBU is still around. Last time I ate here was two years ago!

Some programs that were assigned to Neil before. Saw it still posted on the office wall!

With Joan the trailers production coordinator. Ask for more spots!

This is real! We encountered a giant rat in the office back in 2007!

Thanks Toni for hosting me for that one night! I had so much fun catching up with my kabarkadas.

It’s nice to see that ABS-CBN is still the way I remembered it from two years ago. There were plenty of new things and new faces. But the best part was reconnecting with old friends and old colleagues. I also loved revisiting places like The Loop (where we ate most of the time) and my old table at Studio 23.

Sinulit ko talaga ang bakasyon na ‘to! Including fixing my BDO at ELJ and seeing my cute dentist again.
