Andree... Is my guest from @couchsurfing

Andree.. Is my first guest from @couchsurfing where friendly site for hosting a traveler. He taught me a lot of things from budget traveling to photo editing and photography. In other side he is not just a serious person but the funniest person I've met.

Andree... First arrival in the Philippines!

He arrived earlier than I expected. The driver didn't know my place exactly since it is a new building. A guard from a hostel near home called that a friend looking for me. Unfortunately, I pick him up to the place where he is located. It was very early to get up on the bed but I have no choice. The first timer in the Philippines get lost so I worry about it.

First day of staying at my place...

I told him that I just can host but no time to go with him on tour. Instead I gave him a tourist spots in the City of where to go. He understand about it. He is polite and respectful.

Second day...

He went to the City tour for site seeing and for compilation of video. He is known for brazilian as travel vlogger. Has many videos on youtube channel. If you want to check out here's the name @andreminatowicz.

I'm the only princess among these two..obviously :D

Third day.. I introduce him about steemit. . .

I know how passionate he is as a traveler but for sure he has many things to share in the community. He like the steemit concept of how it is connected to the people and created an account right after the discussion. Wow! He is awesome.. He doesn't have a post yet but maybe you can check out his profile @andreminatowicz. That day I also invited my closest friend @gabrielzkie for a pizza dinner. Oh! I love these two people where I can have a great vibes.

sumptuous brunch

Fourth day.. Eating local foods.

I introduced to andre about delicious lechon. We went to the famous restaurant for lechon but sadly out of stock it says will arrive at 30minutes or more. We couldn't wait cause stomach so starving. We switch to Ayala mall to eat. I took him to the Filipino restaurant at @kuyaJ. Luckily bumped with other friend ms. @queenlevita and with me @gratefulayn had a sumptuous brunch. I recently didn't go out often due to budgeting side. But that day without thinking the budget. I ordered my favourite bulalo tagalog, pancit canton and lechon kawali Andree... Like the local food especially when it is cheap in a fancy restaurant.

Temple of leah

I'm not good in history. But I showed to andree a beautiful places to go. Hahaha. We came here for a photography lesson since that was an exchange of staying in my place😉 So, here it is I don't know how to use the zoom in lens and no idea of adjusting the lightning and so on. He took a picture of someone far and shown to me. It was impressive then I motivated to do it on my own. But what I'm gonna do without a model? He suggested to ask some for photograph. So, I asked these two beautiful Pilipina.

Second day night photography at sugbo mercado

It's Andre last day of 5days staying with me.

I'm so happy for all of what he is done to me. It was really helpful. He is kind, patient and funny. Hehe! He always do the Indian accent to make me laugh. This Brazilian guys is smart, talented and yet wise.I should learn from his travel style like going to the places where you don't need to pay for entrance and not taking an expensive vehicle fare to go that places. If you guys want to see his vlog. Stay awesome man.. See you when I see you soon. .

Care the tourist as you care to the local.. We are all equal. .

Thank you steemians for giving me an opportunity to express myself here and to listen my short story. Have a nice day!
