Philippines (August 2002)
After 15 years, I finally got to visit.  This trip was particularly fun because it's the first trip I took with my family in a very long time.

Portugal (Apr 2002)
Known to most filipinos (my ethnic origin) as the birthplace of F. Magellan, the man who "discovered" the Philippines in the 16th century, this is also the site of the famous apparitions of Our Lady of Fatima.  (Also visited: Sintra, Cascais, Estoril and Lisbon)

London, England (Sept 2001)
Decidedly the best first European country to visit!  Among the places Tam and I explored are Picadilly Circus, Tower of London, Buckingham Palace and Westminster Abbey.

Munich, Germany (Sept 2001)
We spent all our time hanging out, shopping and eating at the Marien Platz.  

Rome, Italy (Sept 2001)
We saw St. Peter's Basilica, Sistine Chapel, Vatican Museum, Trevi Fountain, The Spanish Steps, the Pantheon, the Colloseum.

Paris, France (Sept 2001)
Aaaah! The city of Romance -- so true!  There's just something in the air or in the water.  Actually, I think it's the climate.
