A Quick Break

I didn't realize that it's been months since my last post here. I've wanted to write but I couldn't get myself to write a single word these past few months. A lot has happened!

My 2022 Financial Goals

I know it's almost the end of January and I was supposed to post about my financial goals earlier this month, but I got so caught up with things that I never got around it until I saw the post of Millennial Couple Investors on Instagram about their financial goals for this year.

December 2021 Photo Diary

Happy New Year! I was able to go home to my family in the province for the holidays and I never actually got round to writing about it. I thought I'd post some of the photos here!

Do Your Thing With ING Philippines

I remember downloading the ING app December of last year and I applied to open an account with them online, using my phone. Luckily enough, I got approved. But I didn't really started using it until recently, when I had a new savings goal.

Anyway, I am sharing this with you because I just received my debit card from ING Philippines. I got it totally free and I didn't even have to pay for the delivery fee. So amazing! 

Applying for an ING account is pretty easy and very hassle-free.

I remember applying for my ING account last year, just few days before I left for Manila. And just like what I mentioned above, I didn't really started using it right away. I had the app on my phone for months, but didn't really open it. Not until I had this new savings goal... 

So, according to their website, ING is a global bank with presence in more than 40 countries, serving more than 38.4 million customers worldwide. It is globally known as a pioneer in branchless banking and have been operating in the Philippines since 1990.

I have to be honest, I didn't really know about ING until late last year. I didn't know they've been around for that long.

Despite not knowing much about ING at first, being the risk-taker that I am, I gave it a try. 

The Difference a Year Can Make

Well, it's been almost a year since I moved away from home. Almost a year of being away from my family, almost a year of living alone, almost a year away from my comfort zone and everything that I know about. Almost a year of improving and getting to know myself more. 

There are days that I love it so much and then there are days that I hate the crippling loneliness that comes with it. All part of the journey, right? 😁

This is actually not my first time to move away from home and live on my own, but this time it's different. The first time I had to move away is because of a completely different reason... This time, there's no fear and anger inside me. This time, it is so much better.

Hello, Metro Manila!

So, why did I move this time?
