Aya’s Dubai Adventure

Aya's Dubai Blog

Three weeks ago marked a milestone for us in PESOS AND SENSE. Last July 5, I conducted our very first International seminar in Dubai. Did you know that over 20% of Dubai’s population are Filipinos? That was why I was very excited — knowing that I would get to meet some of them and share what I have learned over the years.

“An apple a day keeps the doctor away.” This is just one of the sayings we grew up with. We’ve got dozens of these that put emphasis on health. It only goes to show that health is one of our major priorities.

health is wealth

The following are health maxims that we try to live by: eat a balanced meal, have a good night’s sleep, and drink 8 glasses of water a day. This is the ideal scenario, but let’s be honest – there are times that we just crave for junk food, pizza, and other fast food meals. Kids nowadays, instead of playing outside are glued to their video games. This is the reason why we should take extra care of our health.

Year after year, you cannot stop entrepinoys from putting up a business of their own. Not all of us can afford to put up our own business or even have the time to manage it. So, how can an average Filipino go into business with only P5000?
