How to Haul – Gourmet Shopping Edition (Loot? Woot!)

For me, half the fun of travelling is bringing all sorts of awesome things back home.  I was brought up the idea that you should always bring pasalubong  (souvenirs) back for people who weren’t fortunate enough to be able to go with you.  In fact, this idea of bringing pasalubong whenever you visit someone is [...]
