Renaming One of My Blogs-Becoming American and Year 2020 in Review

I renamed one of my blogs, Becoming American this year. This was inspired by a vblog named Becoming Filipino by Kyle Jennermann from Canada.

This is one of my widely read blogs with more than 847,900 views as of this writing date. Goals for 2021-To attain more than 1 Million Views:

This week I renamed one of my blogs-Life in the US and in the Philippines:1960 to the Present to: Becoming American. This change of title is inspired by one of the most widely read video blogs (Vlog) about the Philippines by Kyle (Kulas) Jennermann, Becoming Filipino. https://www.facebook.com/becomingfilipino

 

BecomingFilipino is an adventure. It is the journey of a 26 year old Canadian trying to “Become Filipino” through travel, experience, and sharing happiness. Kyle has travel extensively in almost all parts of the Philippines since 2014.

Three of the several hundreds of videos about his Philippines adventures that Kyle has posted in his vlogs are from his experiences in Marinduque- Our second home.


Kyle had posted five other blogs about Marinduque.  Two videos are about the Moriones and Heritage Houses in Boac and the other one is the underground river cave in Santa Cruz.
