this this episode is just to introduce myself so later on as we go along with the episodes I hope that you will learn something from me you will take something from me and also I can motivate you inspire you through all the walks of life so before as I mentioned before I am Dada I came from the Philippines and I'm living in Vietnam currently living in Vietnam and I'm working now as an employee in one of the hotel here in Hanoi so I came from my dad came from in the middle part of the Philippines where which is the Ernani is in summer and my mom came from the southern part of the Philippines in Mindanao which is the Bayugan yeah Bayugan so it's near Cotabata I've never been there I want to go there but there's no chance but I grew up in my dad's hometown which is the Ernani and well my life is like very difficult from the time because we're having some family issues and I've been moving around since then and actually it's like I have no permanent address and I've mentioned this one with my in on my YouTube channel together with my best friend I was I collaborated with her so it's not so boring to talk alone it's better to share some opinions share some stories because I'm not yeah I'm the kind of person not confident to talk alone in the camera so I've asked my best friend to collaborate with me but fortunately we enjoyed it and hope you guys support also our YouTube channel which is the Addaja official and as I've mentioned before I grew up in part of Manila and because my dad was working and then I we left he left us with in the care of our aunt her he's older sister of the oldest sister so our auntie was kind enough to take care of us since my mom is also working overseas so my childhood is like I'm not sure what is the normal childhood would be like because normally well childhood would be fun it's like no worries at all especially when you have parents beside you they're gonna take care of you but my childhood was kind of like different from the rest me and my sister was as I've said before we've moving around since our parents were working they're hard worker hard-working parents and we we were left with our aunt so we're just moving on it's like no permanent address so since when we started elementary school grade one we moved to the we moved to our father's hometown which is in Ernani Eastern Samar and we stayed there from grade one to first year high school and we've been through a lot and it's not normal because I was helping with my aunt's business because my auntie was self-employed and she have a small store it's like convenience store and I need to help her during my school days elementary school days I need to help her after the school I don't have time to play well I just I have some just just a play time but it's limited because we need to help her to help her manage the convenience store like small things some small errands and also because I'm in Philippines if you're a woman if you're a girl you need to learn the house chores you need to start from when you need to start at a very young age on how to cook the rice to wash the dishes wash your own clothes clean the house something like that and well as I realized now it's very helpful for me because I'm living in overseas and I can take care of myself and I can I can I can wash my own clothes cook my own food so it's not very difficult for me to move abroad and on that time my cousins have children's so they need also to work on to work go to work that's why we need to take care of their children's our nieces we need to provide them the care that they need because they were too small so small and well it became my response our responsibility to take care of them while their parents are working as well no it's not a very simple child it's quite how can I say it's quite difficult for me because I started taking care of my nieces when I was grade five grade four grade four maybe it's around nine years old or eight years old I mean yeah yeah nine years old I was starting started to started to take care of them but yeah I learned a lot of lessons you know um it's a very big part of me that luckily I've I've learned I mean I've experienced this kind of things I realized now that if I didn't experience the past that I had maybe it's very difficult for me to cope up with life because while I was in abroad when we started when I started to work abroad overseas it's it's quite easy for me to cope up some things to deal with some problems to deal with self problems because sometimes we feel homesick we feel we felt like we were I felt like I was thrown out to work abroad because I was I was lost at time I was lost at time and I was provided I was just lucky enough that I have some people around me that provided me providing me something to improve improve myself to you know to to excel myself in those kind of things that's why I I can say that I can I can be I am I am how to say like I am a multitasking person like a multi talented like I can take care of myself could take care of a baby even I don't have or I can I can go anywhere and I I can live because I know how to deal with life but sometimes I felt like it's still too difficult but I was lucky to experience those kind of things while I was at a very young age and I was grateful for that and if I have ever had a chance to change it I will never change it because I will never be me if I will not experience those kind of things there's no data a strong data because the fact that what I've went through since I was a child until now maybe I'm done I'm done with my life but to keep moving on I need to move on I need I need some I have I'm holding with something I mean I have a reason to live right so I will not change anything but if I ever be reincarnated and repeat my life I would still choose because God put me through those challenges because he knows that I can do it he knows that I can easily cope up with the things even though it's very hard for me yeah I admit that sometimes I'm something like I give up I want to give up I want I want to leave everything behind and done with my life but you know I realized that God still there God watches us and God God provide us everything even for us it's impossible but for him nothing is impossible so guys thank you for listening to my very first episode yay and I hope you will listen you will enjoy my forthcoming episodes and I hope you will you will learn something from me and see you guys here in my podcast
