Virtual Communication and Social Media

Thanks to modern technology, I can stay in touch with my family and friends around the globe in real time. And the good thing about it is, as long as you have internet, it's all FREE. How great is that.

I moved to live in Cornwall, UK in 2009. I have been living here for more than 10 years now. There's not a day that I don't miss my family and friends.

My parents lives in the Philippines. My brother Russel and his family lives in Dubai, UAE. My sister Rachel lives in Montreal, Canada. My family are scattered across the globe, in 3 continents. 

My childhood bestfriends Catherine Reyes lives in Jeddah, KSA and Emerly Tiongsion in the Philippines.

My university bestfriends Nelinda Cupino Buazon lives in USA and Liezl Manaloto Ceballos in the Philippines. Marilou Gulay Bostock lives in Walton on the Naze, Rachel Yumul in Italy, Ethel Dimayuga Roberto in USA, Maricar Arribe in UAE, Estelman Datu Mamadra in UAE, Florida Penilla in UAE, Myrna Samson Lazareto in the Philippines, Mylah Quintos in Australia and many more...

At the moment, I'm using Facebook Messenger and Google Hangouts Meet to communicate with my family; Facebook Messenger with my childhood friends; Facebook Messenger and Zoom with my university friends.

Since the coronavirus pandemic (COVID-19) outbreak, the importance of Virtual Communication and Social Media became more apparent. With the "lockdown" and "social distancing", we have been using virtual communication for chatting with family and friends, office and club meetings and others. Social Media is a great way to share important information, news and updates.

Nephew: Gabriel Angelo and Miguel Angelo
Whenever my brother send me photos and videos of my 2 smart and adorable nephew Gabriel Angelo and Miguel Angelo, my heart is very happy. I watched their videos a dozen times. Gabriel and Miguel are very creative and artistic. Their paintings and sketches are excellent. They are also a brilliant film maker and video editor. They are also a good dancer, singer and video player. Multi-lingual too. They speak English, Arabic and French. These 2 boys brings sooo much joy to our family.

I am a huge fan of Social Media. I love facebook, instagram and twitter. But of course, not all people share my feelings. Some even think that Social Media is bad. In my opinion, it's not the Social Media who's bad, but the people who are "mis-using " it. You have to be responsible of your own action. Don't blame it on Social Media. 

I love taking photos of beauty and wonder of nature and wildlife. I love going out for a walk around the spectacular and picturesque countryside of Cornwall.

I will keep on posting and sharing my photos with my family and friends. I enjoy doing it and I am happy. I really enjoy looking at the photos of my friend and family too.

I will continue using Social Media and I am really grateful to the founders of all these amazing companies because it keep us connected with our family and friends.
