Sending Balikbayan Box to the Philippines

You might know some Filipinos cultures? Filipinos always have close family ties and wherever they are around the world, they always remember their families back home. One act of showing their love is helping them. One way of helping them is sharing what they also have like sending stuffs through balikbayan boxes or in terms of financial matter. I am planning to send some boxes to the Philippines again.

 I am going home anytime this year and before I go home, I need to pack-up some boxes to send some presents. Balikbayan boxes are like shipping boxes. The only advantage with this is that there is no limit on how many kilos you want to put in the box. It is very cheaper compared to having extra baggage in the airplane which cost a lot of money. Imagine an excess kilo from Europe to Philippines ranging from 30 to 50 Euros per kilo.

It is better to have the balikbayan box where you can have 2oo kilos or more in a box. Believe me I already did that! If you need some balikbayan boxes, leave me a message here or write me an email. I can help you with that especially if you are from Germany. Have a great day to all!!
