About
Edelweiza Mabalay, the author of this blog, is a writer, tour-guide, and blogger based in Manila, Philippines.
She spent her childhood in a small town in the province of Nueva Ecija. She’s the eldest in a brood of four (three females and a male). When her father lost his job in 1999, she worked hard to finish her studies to become the breadwinner in the family.
Edelweiza, or Edel, as what her friends fondly call her, started blogging in 2005. Since then, she has been making friends and meeting interesting people online and offline . She started attending blogger events in 2008 and is now blogging at her own domain name www.edelweiza.com.
She loves and lives for her family and enjoys being the breadwinner despite the hardships, difficulties and responsibilities attached to the title. And yes, she salutes all the breadwinners in the world (may they be fathers, mothers, sons or daughters) for their big hearts and generosity of spirit.
This blog, aptly titled The Life of a Breadwinner, is home to her thoughts and opinions on lifestyle, career, finances and a lot more topics that a breadwinner like her gets the opportunity to experience, explore on and learn from.
