A podcast brought to life because of #COVID19. This is all about OFW stories across the globe, inspiring Filipinos back home, and travel narratives from Pinoy wanderers. I talked to my friends and families who fits those descriptions. Episodes are in Ilonggo, Tagalog, and English-- recorded from Paris, France.
