GOING PLACES: BEEN THERE... DONE THAT...

HomeEL VIAJERODec 26, 2007



This site was first launched in 2007 to serve as a repository of my memories: a travel journal, photo album and a one stop site were all my family; friends and colleagues can communicate with me anytime, anywhere. This November 2010, it was re-launched to be my official webpage for the World Students in Korea (WSK); an internship program spearheaded by the Office of the President of the Republic of Korea under the aegis of the Presidential Commission on Nation Branding . Various WSK activities and fora will be posted here as well as some of my personal adventures. This webpage encapsulates all my memories and experience, no matter how sad, happy, trivial or funny it may be. All in all, it discusses the life of a migrant Filipino in South Korea and how he lived it.
