What is a Balikbayan Box?

A balikbayan box is a large box filled with items, often gifts and essential goods, that Filipino expatriates send back home to their families in the Philippines. The term "balikbayan" comes from the Tagalog words "balik" (return) and "bayan" (country), reflecting the idea of sending items back to one's home country.

These boxes can contain a wide variety of items, such as clothing, food, toiletries, and other household goods. Balikbayan boxes are a common and cherished way for Filipinos abroad to stay connected with their loved ones, especially during holidays and special occasions. They are usually shipped via sea freight and can take several weeks to arrive.

It's a beautiful tradition that symbolizes care, love, and support for family members back home.
