《在馬尼拉遇見的他》Met Him in Manila #throwback

I met Gian at Greenwich Pizza restaurant in SM MANILA, he recognized me at first. Maybe not so hard for him to look for a foreigner in the local restaurant.

Once met up, I requested to take photo together. Because we will walk around in the city later, I will turn to oily face after a walk. We having a great time in Starbucks at Intramuros and also watched the fireworks at Manila bay.

He is very gentleman, he know to take care of girls but he is naughty too. Never mind, girls still like him very much. He tried to tap Lynn Hong​'s phone conversation but don't worry. He don't understand mandarins.

I'm glad to meet him although it's just a short catch up. I always wish to make friends with local, maybe we are not that close to each other but we promise to celebrate Christmas and count down together in future.

It's all about Timing, if I visit to Manila in June. I might not meet him because he fly to Taiwan for study around two months. After that he will move to Diliman.  The day we met up was crash with his exam period. He was preparing his exam but luckily he decided to take a rest and met up with us.

Thanks you, Gian. All the best to you for your Taiwan trip. May God bless you.

他是我在馬尼拉約見的第二位沙發客。我們約在SM MANILA碰面。雖然說大概看過照片但…是他先認出我的，真的太厲害了！我想可能在一個以當地人為主客的餐廳裡，要尋找一個外地人並不困難吧。

一見面我就先要求合照，免得待會走景點的時候滿臉油光拍照就不好看了。這天下午他會帶我們去走西班牙王城，然後在王城來個悠閒下午茶再去馬尼拉海灣看煙火。

一整天相處下來，他真的是很紳士。他不但會照顧隨行的女生而且總會默默地走在女生旁邊…可是他也很調皮搗蛋卻很受女生歡迎…還會去偷聽女生講電話…哈哈但是別擔心！他根本聽不懂中文！哈哈哈！

很開心能夠和他碰面相識，雖然只是那短短幾個小時但我已經覺得很開心了。我一直都希望可以有機會認識每個國家當地的朋友。或許我們並沒有相熟到可以稱兄道弟…這倒是在我們幾個人心中播下了友情的種子…所以真的很期待未來有機會再來馬尼拉過聖誕跨年！這是我們幾個的約定。

有時候真的不得不說，我很慶幸。要是我遲了一個月來馬尼拉，他就已經飛去臺灣當兩個月的交換生了。要是我遲了三個月來馬尼拉，我也不見得會碰到他因為他今年八月就要搬離馬尼拉北上到Diliman上大學。而這一次見面也正好碰上了他的考試閉關期！今天又正好是他想要出來放鬆心情的時候…所以所以一切都那麼湊巧…

旅行有一個你永遠都無法掌控的元素就是Timing…也因為Timing才會讓你的旅途充滿驚喜！

It's all about Timing!!
