Paul Callus April 7, 2014 at 5:09 PM You 'sell' your country with love and fervor; I met some Pinoys in Malta, and they all were so very friendly and well-mannered; always with a smile on their face. (one of them happens to be a nurse, and she is now married to a local person.) Good luck for the contest Olive_eloi :) // paul Olive Eloisa Guillermo - Fraser April 8, 2014 at 2:56 AM Wooooohhhh... :) all over he world Pinoys are seen excelling and proving their capabilities... :) hahahha yes!!!
