It's me Tazzy =)

... a transient Filipina who love to experience different cultures.

I can’t imagine that I have been in different countries for a couple of years. Some are for travelling but mostly are for earning a living. With a span of ten years, I got able to live in 3 countries with extremely different cultures. I have been in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates, a Muslim country in the desert for 5 years, I stayed in a Socialist Republic of Vietnam for almost 2 years and now I am living in a country that everyone is dreaming of, the United States of America. I love my experiences in these countries. I am pretty amaze on how God works in my life all throughout these years. And I am excited on what God lies ahead of me with my husband in the coming years.

... fascinated to discover ways to financial freedom.  

Like you, I was in a rat race that lived from paycheck to paycheck and stuck in a job with 8 to 5 working schedule. I was a member of one day millionaire club. However, even though I didn't know how to handle my money wisely, I was thought by my mother to do some business on the side. While working in the garment manufacturing company in the Philippines, my sister and I were seasonally selling stuffs in front of my grandparents house. We sold anything that we think was profitable and sell-able especially on Christmas season. It takes time before I become wise with my money. That happened when I was working in Abu Dhabi and earning a decent income. I always had the desire to renovate our house and give the best to my parents and siblings. My mother wanted to take a loan from the bank to use in renovating our house. The loan interest was a huge factor that triggered me to save. I told my mother to hold off the renovation and save money for that. I'd learned to budget my money and plot  all my income and expenses in a spreadsheet which I do hope to share to you in a separate blog. I'd learned to do business on the side again. My mindset was all about business so I jumped in whenever there is opportunity to earn extra. I became a middle person in selling airline tickets. I sold pork yeah pork in Abu Dhabi, it's an open country so somehow it is allowed to sell but costly. I imported bags  and purses from US and sold it to my friends in Abu Dhabi. I joined a Multi Level Marketing or networking company there. My housemates and myself rented out 3 rooms in our flat to lessen our apartment rental. I got some gig to my friend's  Emirati boss for her school projects and got paid. Lastly, I got a gig as a Virtual Assistant.  It's amazing how everything conspires and my set of friends and network were utilized to reach that goal.

... eager to fulfill the purpose of my existence.
This is the most important for me and I want to fulfill it with my bestfriend, my husband. We always seek for any opportunity to serve our Lord and His people and I am hoping that writing this blog will help to fulfill that purpose. =)
