Where We Are Today…

What originally began as a blog (and the blog is still here) has now expanded into collaborations and business partnerships, as well as soon-to-launch passion projects aimed at championing local Filipino crafts and talent. Here are some of the endeavors I pour myself into these days.

Jan 24, 2017 | Food, Lifestyle

No press kits, simple, straight forward information and a most sincere invite were all this establishment needed to get me sold. The first and only, truly healthy and beautifying hot pot that not only claims serious benefits but tastes oh so good as well is now open!...

My 2016 Best

Dec 21, 2016 | Fashion & Beauty, Lifestyle
