Ito ang ika-apat na entry ni Loribelle Spirovski sa Archibald.
Lumipat sa Australia si Loribelle at kanyang ina noong 1998 mulaCatanduanes sa Pilipinas in the Philiippines just before she turned nine years old.
Loribelle moved to NSW in 1998 with her Filipina Mother. A few years later, they moved to Western Sydney, where she was exposed to different cultural backgrounds. 'I was around a lot of Vietnamese, Samoans, Serbians, but I was still the only Filipino there. Growing up in the area, I saw similarities with our Filipino culture, or sometimes I'd say you look like my Filipino cousin.' (In photo, Loribelle with her parents.) Credit: Loribelle Spirovski
