Dad did a business Seminar today and he asked me to help him out with his presentation. It went well, and afterwards I decided to get some shots of the area.

A Sari-Sari Store In Sampaloc

I love places like these - they're just so vibrant and full of life. Especially the sari-sari stores... a staple of Filipino neighborhoods that they just aren't the same without. One of the other reasons I love this area is that there aren't too many fast food restos or chain stores nearby; it's full of mostly mom-and-pop stores, self-owned business that add character to the community. You can't manufacture that.
