My grandfather took me with him on a weekend fishing trip.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I dressed up in my black hat with flowers sewn around it and ran to my grandfather who took me for a ride on a tricycle towards a lake. I had a great time running after tiny crabs, catching tadpoles thinking they were fish and picking up shells.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sunday picnics at parks were followed later by school field trips.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Perhaps like you, my early childhood experiences developed within me a love of exploring different places, culture and food. I enjoy meeting people and sharing my experiences with them. That’s why I developed this website.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Let’s share. I care about your experiences too. Communication brings us closer. May this site bridge the distance between us. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4032256503171630323-8892354726726004935?l=filipina-travels.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://filipina-travels.blogspot.com/feeds/8892354726726004935/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4032256503171630323&amp;postID=8892354726726004935' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4032256503171630323/posts/default/8892354726726004935'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4032256503171630323/posts/default/8892354726726004935'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://filipina-travels.blogspot.com/2007/04/first-step.html' title='The First Step'/><author><name>filipinatravels</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16868960138317487101</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://bp2.blogger.com/_obYs8OivCZY/RipLShbkG2I/AAAAAAAAAAc/Senf-FMlJmc/s72-c/pinkfootprint.gif' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry></feed>
