According to reports of ABS-CBN News, Cheesa is scheduled to arrive in the Philippines on June 12, Manila time.
According to Cheesa, she does not know how to speak Filipino but she is excited to be with her relatives.
"Hindi ko marunong eh. I know a little bit but my mom is from Cebu so I mix both Visayan and Tagalog together so it'll be hard for people to understand me," she said.

Apart from performing engagements, Cheesa also wants to meet her loyal Filipino fans who supported her during the competition.
"It feels good to finally get recognized for your talent and to go back home. Especially from kababayans, for them to be so proud of you, it's both exciting and nerve-wracking at the same time," she said.
Also, Cheesa's brother Troy, who's also the musical director of Charice, is coming with her.
Their mother is a Cebuana, while their dad grew up in Cebu.
As first-generation immigrants, the Lauretas experienced difficulties when they started their lives in the US. The sacrifices they had to make to support the dreams of Cheesa and Troy were shown in a video package on "The Voice."
Cheesa said, that she will be working back on her album, when she will return to Los Angles after her Philippine trip.
