Balikbayan boxes

Balikbayan boxes

Balikbayan boxes are boxes that my mom brings to the Philippines filled with Spam, M&M’s, and my favorite toys. It’s hard lugging these boxes around (sometimes 5 to 130 boxes each trip) but once you get there and the family is gathered to open them up, it’s worth the spinal cord injury. Just call the local Hilot for the back pain when you arrive. If you can’t move or feel your lower body, try hitting it with a bat.
