Thank you for your vote East Village Neighborhood of Oxnard! I tried to get elected as Treasurer...and wound up as the Secretary-Treasurer 👍 Can't wait to get more involved with the city I was born and lived in for almost 20 years! (at Oxnard, California)

So glad to see/show some LA sights with my good friend from my Indiana University days: Walt Disney Concert Hall, Grand Park, Eggslut, the Last Bookstore...among many others. Hope LA treats you well the rest of your time here! 🤗 #touristing #friendstime (ved Los Angeles, California)

Too funny that this is only my 2nd Tagalog (🇵🇭) move I've ever watched in my life...I've probably already seen around 100 Scandinavian-language ( 🇳🇴 🇸🇪 🇫🇮 🇮🇸 🇩🇰) movies! Lol, the life of a Filipino-American with a Scandinavian college major 😂 #parentslanguage #futurechildrenslanguage 😉 (at Century RiverPark 16)

Silly Dad! It took 5 tries to get him to smile at the camera instead of eating the cherry on top of his birthday dessert. That's okay, whatever he wants today. 70 years young! 🎂🎉🎊🎁 (ved Applebee's Grill & Bar)

Thank you @aarunarsirakul for hosting me while I've been in Asia, serving as my tour guide throughout the Nagasaki Prefecture 🇯🇵, and being my travel companion in Busan 🇰🇷. Since the end of high school, not even my parents had the pleasure of seeing my 'glorious' face for 12 days straight and you were able to withstand mine 😉 Until next time... #thisiswhatfriendshiplookslike

Thanks South Korea 🇰🇷 for your wonderful hospitality and beautiful cityscapes these past 3 days. Until next time...

Thank you @____cherisse for introducing us to your beautiful city (at present) 😁 What a lovely day to experience Busan, 🇰🇷! #nofilter #ThammasatStudyAbroadAlumni2011 (ved Busan, South Korea)
