    How to Get an Upwork Identity Verification Badge

    Last April 23, I received an email from Upwork that freelancers now have the opportunity to earn an Upwork Identity Verification Badge. It was not required back then so, I just moved on. But then last September 24, I received another email from them saying that this is now required. Why did Upwork require the Identity Verification Badge? According to their email, Upwork video verification is now required for the Identity Verification Badge to help keep Upwork safe and fraud-free. They received feedback from clients that this information is important when hiring virtual assistants. For the freelancers, those who have an Identity Verified badge receive more job invitations.

    Sinigang na Bangus Recipe

    One of the easiest dishes to cook, for me, is Sinigang na Bangus. “…it is a Filipino soup or stew characterized by its sour and savoury taste most often associated with tamarind (Filipino: sampalok). It is one of the more popular dishes in Filipino cuisine.” – Wikipedia For this recipe, I used boneless milkfish because it is easier to eat, especially if you have a toddler. You can either have the milkfish deboned in the wet market or buy one in the supermarket. Ingredients: 1 Bangus (Milkfish, Cleaned and Sliced)2 onions sliced3 tomatoes sliced20g pack Knorr Sinigang sa Sampalok Mix Original1 L watera bunch of kangkong (water spinach), separate the leaves from the stalks1 bundle sitaw (string beans)2 sili pangsigang…

But, seeing the list of Exhibitors and the Schedule of Activities, I told myself I will never miss this. Good thing, my husband volunteered to take care of our toddler while I’m out. Besides, I have never been out without my baby for a while now. 10th Baby…
