Pinay in The City

I've been stuck thinking of a nice entry for this blog.

One of the main reasons why I created this blog is to promote the positive side of Filipinas globally because unfortunately when you use the keywords filipina, filipina photos on major search engines like Google or Yahoo, the sites ranking are online dating sites. Earlier, I tried these search terms again and I'm quite pleased that the number one site is Filipina Images which shares the same goal of reviving the positive image of Filipinas internationaly using the Internet.

Filipinas are definetely more than what those dating/bride seeker sites promote them to be. I would definitely love to use my blog to empower the Filipino women, to show their achievements, intelligence and beauty which is beyond what they percieve.

• Dress as simple as possible.
• Don't wear excessive jewelries or accesories. A wristwatch will do.
• You'll have to do a lot of walking so wear a comfortable shoes.
• Wear a body bag where you can place your money ond phone. Make sure that it is placed in front so that it'll be safe from pickpockets.
• Check out as much stalls, there are a variety of choices and so that you can compare prices.
• Its better if you have money in smaller denomination since clothes doesn't cost that much.

The beauty of a Filipina is so diverse mainly because of the rich history of the country.

For 300 years the Spaniards have occupied the Philippines, then the American and Japanese followed.

But even before those times, the country have been open for free trade so Chinese have came in and out of the country as well.

You'll be surprised that Filipina beauty can range from classic looks, spanish mestiza, american, chinita and more.
