*About the photo
It was my first time to relocate to a different location far away from my family for work. The plan was for them to visit me 6 times a year during birthday weekends but when the pandemic lockdowns happened, I was alone for almost a year. I had to be strong. I had to be courageous. I needed to lead my Team in the Site. Meanwhile, I also expressed that my Cebu Team is now both my work family and personal family especially since travel wasn’t allowed yet. I was on daily video calls with my gorgeous wife Prudence who continued to be my source of strength & joy especially during the times I am most vulnerable.
This is our photo in The Pyramid Restaurant in Cebu IT Park when she visited me before the pandemic happened.
