Market Day

Our retirement house is in the best location, close to nature and to everything. We're just 5 minutes away from the shopping center and public market. My family will come tomorrow for the traditional christmas eve get together and gift giving thats why I did drive to the market today to buy some fresh vegetables, meat and poultry products. Inside the wet and dry market are also the fruit stores, eateries, tailoring shop and other stalls. There are two bread shops, i even watched how they cooked doughnuts.

Kid-Friendly Malls

The Mall of Asia is one of the baby/kid- friendly malls that i know. Yesterday, when we have our shopping there, i noticed some amenities that will thrill the kids no end. The parents can shop conveniently while the kids are playing and older kids do the skating. There's also a breastfeeding station for mothers to breastfed their baby.

The Kriz Brothers

Yesterday, Andreas and Thomas tried the golf driving range. Just like the other neophytes in golf, there are some nice and bad shots. Let the picture just speak for itself and see for yourself how concentrated they are.

Meet our New Joy in Life

My car in Germany was named Pangga by my best friend Joy, a term of endearment which means love for the Visayan folks. Here in the Philippines, i named our new chery car Joy. She is the new member of the family in apple green color and had her first service today. The head mechanic came today with the same color service car, the twin sister of Joy.

Home Service Massage


We usually go to Lynderm for our massage needs, but now, we decided to have it at home. The massage attendant comes twice or thrice a week for a full two-hour massage. The other day, i also tried hot stone massage and i liked it very much. It rejuvenates me and its good for back pain.

Service Deluxe

Since we moved in a month ago in our retirement house, there's an outpouring of help and support from my family, neighbors, friends and the staff of Southforbes clubhouse. They helped us organize our house, give suggestions and even delivered fresh pandesal and newspapers right in our doorstep, what a service!! Now we're already adjusted to our new life here and everything falls into the right places more than our expectation. But these are all short-lived, were going to return soon to our homebase Germany to resume work to fulfill financial obligations.

Kids at Work and Fun

My children and grandkids spend weekend with us and i'm glad that they come over to help us with household chores. Their visit is a mixture of work and fun. At night, they did drive to Paseo for some nightlife and have photo sessions at our villas clubhouse.






Kids at an early age should be trained to help in some household work and that's we're doing with my grandchildren.
