Two years of living in Manila during the pandemic under mobility restrictions caused a lot of undue stress. When the Philippine authorities lifted COVID restrictions in early March this year, we immediately arranged a reunion between our two offices in Mindoro and Manila/NCR respectively.
Last April 28 to May 3, the Stairway NCR team with families spent a fun-filled week full of activities and enjoyed our natural surroundings, especially the beach.
