Mom Violy, Tita Edna and Carmina have never been to Iloilo . Tita Edna suggested using her Philippine Airlines mileage to deduct 9,000 miles for a round trip to Iloilo and pay taxes of about 3,000 pesos ($50.85). Mom Violy and Carmina decided to do the same. Two weeks later, we learned Bacolod was recently hit by a typhoon, leaving fewer places to visit, so we changed our plans to stay in Iloilo, paying an additional 2,057 pesos ($34.86) for January 6–9, with Tita Edna leaving one day earlier on January 8, 2026.  Tita Edna told us that she has a friend Beth who can pick us up from the airport. Uniparentally plans had changed since her friend Beth and son could no longer tour us around, we decided to find ways to get around hire someone else. Jerson had picked us from One Madison Place where we had stayed during our vacation with the hours Mom Violy had requested. The first day we went to drive one hour and thirty minutes to reach  Miagao Church . We drove to our next destin...

People Think Carmina is a Celebrity by Her Looks

Moments when you walk inside shopping at Farmers Market with Mom Violy doing her weekly grocery shopping. People you don't know begin to recognize your face. There was one stall who a person asked if I was a celebrity. I giggled and said No, but I am a blogger would it be alright to take a photo together. My way is greeting myself to the person who is either the owner or employee asking permission to take a picture and video of the area where they work. I'd rather asked permission before taking any actions without them knowing what I attempt to do when shopping from them. Majority is they don't believe you at all where comes asking if they have a Facebook account. Usually, the answer is yes and getting my phone showing them my Facebook Page under Carmina Lifestyle. Others will ask me to look inside their phone to add them to follow Carmina Lifestyle. Carmina takes random videos and photos. It is never planned who you end up making a target it just happens when Mom Violy wan...
