ANNE WITH AN 'E' S01E02 Review

"Must obliged"

I really must say, Anne with an E captivates audience, especially me - words not common to my ears lures me to watch more, plus the dramatic plot it conveys to the people.

Also, I must admit that since I've wrongfully watched the first two episodes of the second season, I already have known that the Cuthberts are keeping as their own. What surprised me is that when Matthew said, "She is my daughter." The reaction on Anne's face was so powerful - from being an orphaned who belonged to no one to being a member of the Cuthberts which they allowed her write her own name on the family book. Well, again, I know they'll keep them, but still it was emotional.

Filipinos in the Middle East

Top destination for Filipino working abroad? That's the Middle East! But why? Is it because of the salary? Or the environment? Or the luxury? Filipino loves working, we know that already. But to choose the Middles East intrigues me. Why? Firstly, the Middle East (UAE, qatar, and Egypt) - the world's fastest growing construction market! Because of this, they need skilled workers and laborers at low cost plus able to communicate with them easily. As we all know, most Filipinos speak English and that's a catch. It's cheap for the employers but a fortune for Filipinos. A good example for that is the Engineering department. Filipino Engineers can earn a starting salary of Php 15,000 a month in a private company, suprisingly in the Middle East a Filipino Engineer can earn Php 60,000 to 100,000 per month! This kind of salary in the Philippines is for Top executives or the highest pay for a Proffesor in college. Domestic work, healthcare, construction labor, skille...

SLAVERY IN ANCIENT GREECE

In most Greek cities, slavery was a piece of life and was considered a part of the expected demand of things or a part of the natural order of things. The numerous slaves had been captured in war, for Greeks on those days often had wars on neighboring nations. Domestic slaves - “Greek slaves” assisted in household tasks. Those with special skills worked as metal crafters or smiths, pottery makers, or in other crafts useful in everyday life which offers luxury and leisure to every high citizen of that date. Domestic slaves were somewhat well-treated and some succeeded to save enough money to purchase their freedom from their masters, in comparison war slaves were on the worst side on the coin. This was not the situation for those who worked in the silver mines in Athens or at related labors, their lives were tough and short. Published: December 29, 2018

VASCO DA GAMA

Remember when European explorers tried their very best to find a route to India? Well, we present you, the famous Vasco da Gama. A Portuguese sailor and the very first European to find a sea route to India. He made Portugal a great power in the 1500’s, his discoveries rally round open trade between western Europe and Asia. By the times of 1460, Portuguese sailors had already begun to explore the west coast of Africa and by which time Da Gama was born in Sines, Portugal. Bartholomeu Dias aspired the route to India when he sailed around the Cape of Good Hope, at the southern tip of Africa in 1487. Eventually, King Manuel I of Portugal asked Da Gama to continue Dias’ explorations in 1497. With the order from his king, Da Gama sailed from Lisbon on July 8, 1497 with four ships and about 170 men. Instead of following the African coast, as previous explorers had done, he sailed bravely into the South Atlantic. After three months out of eyesight of land, Da Gama r...
