The MNL-KUL flight was the first time I got to be seated on a seat with adjustable headrests and inflight entertainment accessible through mobile device as the flight did not have the system itself.

KUL-MNL however had the entertainment system itself which is nice, alongside complementary headphones and USB charging and adjustable headrests.

All in all, a very memorable and pleasant flight experience, courtesy of @flypal! 😎✈️
One thing I notice in parliamentary countries is t One thing I notice in parliamentary countries is that architecturally, their parliament buildings are much grander compared to the prime minister's office.

    Santuario del Santo Cristo: San Juan’s Original Church

    October 31, 2017

    The city of San Juan has a rich history in itself, dating back to the days of the Spanish colonial period when it was known before as San Juan del Monte or the town of St. John (the Baptist) of the mountain, owing to San Juan’s hilly elevation.
