If your window has heat-absorbing glass, it can reduce the heat entering your space. You can also use plants as a buffer against heat or add blinds-there are various types such as pleated, blackout, cellular, etc. Some are easier to clean and have a contemporary or minimalist look, depending on your preferred vibe. Since you have awning and sliding windows, 50 percent of the air is coming inside the room. Typically, the west and south areas are the hottest in the house. The good thing is you have passive cooling, allowing hot and cold air to flow freely. Proper planning can further reduce heat based on the space's use and location. Anyway, congratulations on your renovation!
So proud of you, Ben!!! We’re in the same phase of life na mas gustong nasa tabi nalang ng parents because of that realization na hindi na sila pabata. God bless you!
This is 💯 true. One of the best decisions I made is to move back with my parents. My dad passed away last year but I dont have any regrets. I moved back with them when the pandemic started. I also work from home so I spent a lot of time with my dad before he was diagnosed with stage 4 Cancer.
watching this now na planning nadin to go back sa family this year after almost a decade of being independent (as in nakahiwalay) sa pamilya. This time, magkakaroon na ko ng sarili kong space sa bahay which is separate room, dati kasi iisang room lang kami ng lola at mother ko. Now, magkakaroon na ko ng sariling kwarto dahil yung uncle ko recently passed away 2 months ago, and wala ng mag kwarto dun sa isang room. Ang gastos bumili ng gamit sa kwarto, pero tiyaga lang kasi matagal naman magagamit and agree ako kay Ben, mama is not getting any younger, so sa tingin ko naman sapat na yung mga learnings and freedom ko simula nung humiwalay ako sa family ko. Goodluck sa bago nating journey Ben!
So proud of you kuya Ben!! you really inspire me with your thoughts and learnings. I am from province pero every time i visit and going to QC, i am hoping na makasalubong ka haha. Mas nalessen yung chance na mameet kita kasi lilipat ka na, pero i know sooner we'll meet. Cheers!!
That’s why i am planning talaga na mag resign sa work tas umuwi na lang dito kila mama, totoo naman tumatanda na sila/tayo at hindi natin yun namamalayan. Spending time with your family is a must❤️
Huhuhu just want to thank you. I felt pressured to move out of my parents house just because everyone is doing it But thank you for reminding me that family is more important ❤ and a good reminder to really spend time with them while they are still healthy
You did the right thing, Ben. Make time with your parents while you can and while they can. I was working abroad to give my mom a decent and comfortable life. Unfortunately, she passed away while I was overseas. It’s so sad that she will no longer see what I have achieved and what I will achieve. So, never neglect your parents before everything is too late. 🤍
As strange as it may sound, I was suddenly reminded about that time I watched "The Adam Project" movie and there was this scene where in the adult Adam got the chance to have a conversation with his mom. The short happenings before, during, and after the sensational line - "I have the best mom!" That made me cry big time. 😭 It conveys the idea that sometimes we truly cannot see the value of a moment until it became a memory. Hope you can make the most out of the choice you made so your future self won't be haunted by a lot of - maybes and what-ifs. Ben Oppa, fighting! ❤️
Nakaka relate din ako. I'm also working in manila. How I wish I have more time para ma visit parents ko sa province. Makikita mo yong changes sa kanila.
i suggest kuya ben. hire an architect din po heheh, they can help you planning spaces , solutions sa heat problem of each area, giving you advice best material to use, p.s d ko to sinasabi kasi naghire sya ng engr. huhu and baka kasi meron din under kay engr na arki na nagsusuggest.
Good location and nice ambience.same dilema din ng buhay ko. Add lang, Try to have interior designer or architect,help for sustainability, long term savings, meet ur needs and lifestyle and more. I think elle uy vlogger can be helpful kasi other than design , budgetarian din. :)
Omg, taga Bulacan ka po pala. Saan po kayo sa Bulacan? Nakakatuwa naman na parehas pala tayong Bulakeño 🥰 Anyway, nakakatuwa na you're back at home. ☺️
Nakakamiss mga vlogs mo Ben. Bakit ganun yung mga fave kong vloggers di na sila active masyado? Personal reasons, maybe? I hope Ben is okay. Wala lang namiss ko kasi siya. 🩵
Beeeen! My online best friend. I'm so proud of how much you've succeed every year. Your vlogs are my happy pills ever since I was college. Stay safe! 🤍
