Hello friends! This is my journey... and I filmed myself. I am trying out to see if it works on Hive. For this video, I captured some fun moments from my Sunday life journey: attending the mass (but this Sunday not working as voluntary servant), then going to the market and finally spent 5 hours hiking in the nature of Hong Kong (I showed you some photos already here)!

I have been in Hong Kong since 2011, and since 2022 I have started attending church every Sunday. But before this church journey, I really loved hiking and exploring more in my life. I wanted to experience Hong Kong's beauty, so I used to hike and enjoy outdoor activities.

This marks my first Sunday hike since 2022. I am thinking about to hike more often in future again. I really missed it!

Now enjoy my journey, and thank you for watching! If you like this video, I can make more films in the future. Looking forward to it! (You can finde the YouTube version of my video here.)

Hello Hive friends! This video is about last Saturday — just another day in my life, hope you find it interesting, hehe...

I went swimming in the morning in Deep Water Bay together with a friend. I had swum out very far when suddenly I worried that the current might become too strong or that there could be sharks out there... Well, but as you see, I am still alive, writing here, hehe!

Then we ordered yummy food at a Chinese restaurant and practiced eating with chopsticks, hehe.

Afterward, I went home and cooked some delicious steaks, I know: I am always eating recently, hehe. In the evening I also prepared some food for selling it on Sunday, but that is another story.

Enjoy watching my video, I hope you have fun!

Hello Hive friends! As you already know, recently I spent a few days in Tagaytay!

As I like animals so much, a friend suggested me to visit the farm of the Hotel Kimberly.

The absolute highlight there was that since a very long time I had the opportunity again to ride a horse (I had to pay 400 pesos for 20 minutes riding), and it was so much fun and joy! I hope you like the video and the pictures!

After the horseback riding I was rather hungry so we decided to eat some yummy cake and enjoy a coffee. Just see yourself how mouth-watering the cakes in this hotel look like, hehe!

Hello Hive friends! I hope you all are having a beautiful weekend!?

This time I write again about the same kind of food because I have created a nice new video for you! While in my last video you saw me cooking the banana leaves, this time I show you the process of wrapping the ingredients of Suman (grated cassava, coconut, and sugar) into the banana leaves, and I really hope you enjoy to watch the process!

Also this time I am not selling the food but made it for myself as a snack which I take together with my beloved black coffee!

Who is reading my blog already knows that my preferred side job beside being a domestic helper is to prepare food and sell it on the street. But that is illegal in Hong Kong, and unfortunately, not long ago another seller got caught by the police! That's a truly awkward situation ... but at the moment I don't dare to sell food outside anymore ... I wish that one day I can go back to the Philippines so that I can open my own business and completely legally sell my own food ... maybe dreaming for now, but I hope possible in future!!

Now I hope you enjoy the video and the photos of my newest Suman na Kamoteng Kahoy!

Dear Hive friends! This is the first time I am posting in the Hive Open Mic community! I am not a professional singer like maybe some of you(?) but I love to sing and I hope you enjoy my song!

I am happy to join Hive Open Mic #262 with the theme "Holy Week". I chose the song "One Day At A Time" by Cristy Lane.

I like to sing this song when I feel I like to connect with Jesus. If life is a struggle sometimes and I feel like tumbling it helps me to sing this song and feel that someone cares of me and gives me strength, it helps me to feel better again then...

I wish you all a blessed holy week!

Hi Hive friends! Here I am sharing again what I always do to earn some extra cash here in Hong Kong: preparing and selling food!

You know that Filipinos in Hong Kong always starve to eat some Filipino kakanin (snacks based on glutinous rice) like Suman na Kamoteng Kahoy, Cassava Cake (also known as Kamoteng Kahoy), and many more! But today I only want to write about 2 of these yummy Filipino snacks, both based on cassava.

Oh yeah... This is really my favorite, and my parents keep making this since we were little kids. They prepare this kind of food to sell it or sometimes also just as a tasty dish for the family to eat, especially on special occasions.

It's fun to make but here in Hong Kong banana leaves are sometimes hard to find. They are used to wrap the other ingredients (grated cassava, coconut, and sugar) to add a typical banana leave taste but also to keep the content moist enough during steaming. As Suman na Kamoteng Kahoy gets only steamed, no oven is needed.

Anyway, it's very yummy and I like is especially together with black coffee!

Here you can find a recipe and a detailed explanation about how to make Suman na Kamoteng Kahoy yourself.

And that's how it looks like when I prepare it:

Oh yes! I love food! And I have to tell a story about Cassava Cake. The first time I tried this food when I was in my 1st high school year. And when I tasted this yummy cassava I was so amazed by its taste! I kept telling myself that one day I could make this kind of food, too... And finally, after many years, when I began to sell food in Hong Kong, I tried to make Cassava Cake myself ... I am so happy that nowadays many of my customers really love my Cassava Cake. Actually, it has become my most popular kakanin, hehe!

Cassava cake is baked (maybe you also can try to stem it) and therefore an oven is needed. When I was a child some people also used a pogon (furnace) for that purpose as they couldn't afford an oven.

Here you can find a very good guidance about how to make Cassava Cake yourself.

So now I want to show you how I prepare Kamoteng Kahoy... The hardest part when making this kind of kakanin is to grate the cassava! ... Enjoy the pictures!

## Hello Hive folks! Do you still remember my push-up challenge?

Can you believe it: I already reached my goal to do 20 push-ups in a row, that means I WON the push-up challenge!!

To make it more interesting, today I show you not only my push ups (yes, you can watch me winning that challenge! Hehe) but at the beginning also part of my gym routine.

You know, I am really excited that recently I made some progress in doing push-ups! I already noticed how my muscles in arms, shoulders and chest are getting stronger! But I still have many other aims to reach. Can you for example believe how hard sit-ups are, if you didn't practice them since quite I while? I can tell you ... that is the next area needing some improvement! Hehe

What are your current ambitions or aims in sports?

## Spending my Sunday as a Voluntary Servant!

Yes! Here in Hong Kong there are lots of communities that we can join! Since I live in Hong Kong I love to meet people in church who are so busy doing something every Sunday. They are singing! They do cleaning. And so many more which I always experience when going to the Catholic church on Sundays.

I remember the first time I attempted to join the community was on my birthday, June 14, 2020, on a Sunday. At that time I felt so blessed in life, I was so happy that my situation had improved that I wanted to give something in return. So I offered someone in the St. Joseph Church to clean the toilet which they are doing every Sunday. But they replied that I can't just clean without joining the community as well. Thats how my routine started of doing work in the church and its sourroundings every Sunday. Sometimes we visit prisoners, homes for the elderly, helping kids and many more.

As you can see in the pictures, these kids are so happy, and so I am as well... I don't know why, but I love kids as I love being like a kid myself sometimes, hehe... Well, I love to do whatever tasks are given to me, but I especially enjoy being with playing kids. I enjoy my time with them as I love to play like them, too... (isip bata ang lagay bah... hehehe). Actually, so far I visited this St. Louis School in Sai Wan Hong Kong only twice, for playing with and helping the kids. Seeing them happy fills my heart with joy.
