First timers: Mga "Bunsong" OFW

Japorms sa mga ruins

9912006First time naming mamasyal sa malayo-layong lugar. Siyempre, nasa vicinity pa rin ng Riyadh pero malayo na sa Olaya kung saan kami naka-based. Ito pala yung Deriyah, ang dating siyudad ng mga Saud daang taon na ang nakalipas. May nakita kaming ruins (siyempre, puro ruins yun!) ng mga pillars, naisip naming mag-ala-Karate Kid pero ang uso nga pala ngayon ay japorms. Kasama namin dito yung dalawang Indians, sina Shakeel at Naseem.

Kasama ang Western Qasr

9912007We used the self-timer feature of our camera para magkakasama kaming apat sa picture pero mukhang mas gusto pala ni Larry na kunan yung Western Qasr na nasa background namin. Ayun, nagmukha tuloy kaming foreground. Hmp!


Japorms talaga!

9912008Hindi pa naman kami matatanda (ahem!) kaya pasensiya na kung tamang japorms talaga kami. Ang usapan "shy away sa camera" kaya naman todo emote ang tatlo sa amin kaso excited palang magpakuha si Teddy kaya ayun huling-huling humarap sa camera. Isa na namang umaatikabong "Hmp!"

Typical Pinoy si Chito. Bicolanong Tsinoy. Although it is his first time in Saudi Arabia, he has previously worked in Taiwan. He says it really is an entirely different experience working in the Middle East. Meet Chito and meet real Filipinos at MEPinoy.
