November 8, 2013.
It was the day Typhoon Yolanda made landfall.
It was one of the most powerful storms ever recorded.
Strong winds.
Heavy torrential rains.
Storm surge.
Some had to swim and cling to a post to survive.
Others got stuck on the rooftop.
They felt helpless like a newborn.
And it left more than 6,000 dead.
Sigh...
No one would want it to happen again.
But it's something that's out of our control.
What's in our control?
Our capability to prepare for this kind of disaster.
The government is doing its part — improving weather equipment and providing long-term flood management strategy.
How about us?
As freelancers and digital nomads, how can we respond to this situation?
Is there something we can do about it?
This is a timely topic that we need to address.
Watch the replay here.
Good morning everyone 🙂 hehe
Anong topic?

Good evening guys, good evening everyone. Great topic we have today/tonight. Too bad I may not readily join the discussion as I am driving home around this time. I actually typed this out earlier 🙂 (then copied and pasted here on the forum).

Hi! From Bacolod Negros Occidental.
Iba kasi ang life ng fcc if naririnig boses ni Ms. a.
Alright, here, pauna ko na contribution ko:
Here is at least posting my contribution/thought on disaster preparedness - given that we already know the possible threats or the cause of disasters already arms us for these and thus in a way already makes us (supposedly) ready for these. I just want to add that being equipped may mean “redundant” solutions, i.e. in case of power outages the need for both short-term (power banks/UVRs with batteries) and the long-term (gen sets, small/home-scale-solar panels, and/or -wind turbines) at least what would be available to you or within your means, or this could also be a means of safe mobility whereby you can move to another place where there is reliable power supply while the power is out at your place - you will need to identify these areas/places/points of course in advance.
Dito ang lakas ng ulan kanina. Wala tuloy Internet connection, tiis sa data

Wow congrats Ms.Lina
Nice story! No excuses! Laban lng!
Yes, I came to know yung kina Akhimi (na-kwento niya nung Christmas Party) at Lina (through her husband - na-kwento ng husband niya via messenger situation nila noon) re nangyari sa kanila sa respective places nila sa Bicol nung bumagyo doon last year, grabe. Admittedly, lalo na sa Bicol na prone to typhoons, really have to prepare for these and the possible consequences - power outage and no internet connection.
Aside from the network is yung mga gadgets, like extra charger baka masira and powerbank
Oo nga si Marian, ka-kwentuhan ko rin pala siya as the typhoon was raging at the time in Bicol. Abot ang monitoring for updates noon.
Inconsistent din kasi usually.
Re pandemic, I guess the term is “saturated” na yung iba, but this is not an excuse. We still need to be vigilant.
I agree with you Ms.Lina kc Kung talagang gusto may paraan ..
yes tama ,
F - Flexible
L - Live
I - Invest
P - Peace of Mind..
