		<description><![CDATA[When you are visiting the Philippines for vacation, visiting family or just when you are in Manila, I have a perfect hang-out place for you. Women like shopping, most men do not. Like most men I hate to go shop-in and shop-out all the time and just have to wait. I like to sit somewhere while my wife is shopping, reading a newspaper or just watch people. At Market-Market in Fort Bonifacio there is a large open market, shopping center and eating area. The place I tell you about here is outside in the open shopping area. There is a small place to buy a perfect freshly brewed coffee, and many (most Filipino) food stalls. Sitting there, enjoying my coffee, watching people passing by (among them many beautiful Filipinas) and listening to the soft and nice music of a Band of Blinds. They play lots of Filipino music, but also evergreens. I can spend hours there, and do not mind if my wife is shopping for a long time and spend (too much) money. The place is cool enough because it is a little windy, and covered by a high roof. So no direct sun and the wind plays around [...]<hr /><h2>Related posts:</h2><ul><li><a href="http://www.expatinthephilippines.com/one-year-celebration/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link: one year celebration">one year celebration</a><br />Today it is exactly one year that we arrived in the Philippines to live here.

		<description><![CDATA[Like My Work? Buy me a coffee! Writing might be time consuming and takes a lot of inspiration. But I like to continue this blog for your pleasure as well as mine. It gives me something to do. Maintaining this website costs a lot of money. Webhosting, electricity and lots of coffee, nicotine and from time to time upgrading my computer are expensive. Reading this website is free, using it’s content too as long there is a link to this site. Copy the following and paste it in your website: or use this code: If you like my work and if you are interested in buying me something, click on the picture below. A word about the payments. PayPal states that it will charge 3.4% + P15.00 PHP for every payment that I receive. So the mathematics dictate that a payment has to be more than 17 pesos for me to make any money! Also note that the coffee is symbolic &#8211; I prefer San Miguel, but not during daytime.

		<description><![CDATA[My website is powered by lots of coffee among others. Without coffee I couldn&#8217;t live. Recently I got acquainted to a young Philippine artist who also likes coffee, but prefers tea as a drink. She uses coffee to paint. Her name is Sunshine Plata, also known as: Kapeng Mahiwaga ng Isang Diwata (mysterious coffee of a fairy). I got her personal permission touse some pictures from her site to show my readers. Click on the thumbnails to view a larger picture While studying psychology to become a teacher, she got to know the ?easy life of a fine arts student?. It was then that she decided to become an artist painter. She has been painting before in oil and water color. Around the year 2000 there was an exhibition of the famous ?Riply?s believe it or not? museum in Manila. (I have seen that exhibition as well on one of my visits to the Philippines). She saw there a signature made with coffee of more than 100 years old. On that moment she saw the light and started thinking of using coffee as a painting medium. After some experiments with this medium, she?s mainly using Nescafe coffee powder, she has [...]<hr /><h2>Comments</h2><ul><li><a href="http://www.expatinthephilippines.com/filipino-artist-paints-with-coffee/">July 16, 2010</a>, Erwin Aaron Eleria writes: ang galing niyo po gumamit ng kape para sa pagguhit at pagpinta.. sana po pede nyu ako mabigyan ng advice kung pano gamitin ng mahusay ang kape at kung anu-ano pong klase ng brushes ung dapat gamitin..salamat po =)</li><li><a href="http://www.expatinthephilippines.com/filipino-artist-paints-with-coffee/">July 16, 2010</a>, Jan writes: Hi Erwin,

		<description><![CDATA[One of the pillars of this website and blog, aside from nicotine is coffee. As all my family and friends know I?m a lover of coffee. I drink it in the morning and during the day. Strong and sweet. No cream. One of my favorites is a real Italian Espresso, but that?s hard to get in the Philippines. Only in large hotels and some coffee shops in larger malls sometimes you can buy a good espresso. From Holland I brought my Senseo coffee pad machine with a large supply of pads. My preferred pads are ?dark roast?. Unfortunately I haven?t found the necessary pads in the Philippines yet. Hopefully one day they will be imported here as well. Until then I?m depending on my family and relatives to send me some from time to time. Click on one of the images to see the latger ones in a slide show When we first rented the house where we are living in, we?ve seen several neglected plants and bushes in our garden. One of them was a 3 meters high coffee plant. Lots of ants found a nice house in this plant so it didn?t grow very well.
