My housekeeper sends stuff home pretty regularly. Where's it going and I'll ask her

im not sure where its going... i have just been asked about shipping to the phillipines ? i was just wondering if it was worth doing or not ?

To be safe, you could ask for an address or at least a rough location, and check that the post office / shipping company will provide tracking (very unlikely they won't)

As someone who has business interests there along with a pinnay wife i say Don't bother , Ph postal service is a joke and anything that appears of value will vanish .

I would only use DHL , Fed x etc etc
