Hi! My name is Rachel. I was born in the Philippines and lived there for half of my childhood. I came to the US with my mom and my dad but all of my family is still there. This is and will always be my home and I will always do whatever I can to protect this beautiful place and my family. I am beyond devastated and a loss for words.. please keep the Philippines in all of your prayers for it is a beautiful place filled with beautiful people and my home. Thank you.
