I remember years ago, I wrote a piece about Why is Philippines not a football nation? I remember stating in that article my wish for Pinoys to become more and more interested in football because frankly speaking, I think we are missing a lot. Fast forward 13 years, I’m seeing the interest in football growing. Not as fast as I wish, but we are getting there. Contributing to my wish is LaLiga coming all the way to the Philippines last February 25, 2023, to help promote football here. LaLiga is Spain’s top men’s football league and its official ambassador and former Atlético Madrid footballer T ..read more

Last Valentine’s Day, I attended the Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra launch in the Philippines. It was a spectacular event and one of the biggest I’ve been to in what I would *hopefully* call this post-pandemic era. Part of that event, I had the chance to take home and play with the new Samsung flagship and here are my 5 most favorite things about this new device. 1. Eco-Friendly I work in an airline / travel technology company and what I’ve learned here is that people are really starting to care about the environment – which is a good thing.

I recently got introduced to a line of men’s grooming products. Cremo. Cremo boasts itself as having a barber-grade quality men’s grooming products. Simply put, barber-grade means “astonishing performance, superior ingredients and dramatic results” as what Cremo says in their website. This means that their products will leave you a feeling that you just came from a haircutting or shaving session from your local barbershop. It’s a bummer though that they are not readily available in the Philippines, but you can buy them online from US stores and have them shipped here. I had a chance to get mys ..read more

Whenever I have online meetings with colleagues, I am always impressed and blown away by people who turn on their video and have a nice HD webcam. I figured why couldn’t I do the same? See, regardless if you are work from home or not, I still believe that face to face communication is the best form of communication. But sometimes you don’t have a choice especially when your colleagues are not co-located as you or some of them simply just prefer to work from home due to the still ongoing pandemic. In those cases, the best substitute for actual face to face will be Zoom or WebEx with your c ..read more

Ever since I’ve started to report back to office a few times a week, I needed to revamp my wardrobe and the accessories I wear because my role requires me to wear something more formal. One accessory I was looking to replace was my wallet. I needed something which is more formal, like this one which I discovered and eventually bought from Beverly Hills Polo Club.

Since I have so many cards: credit, debit, ATM, membership ..read more

Not many of you know this, but very recently, I started a new job after 12 years of being in the same company. Can you believe it? I’ve always thought I would retire at my old company. But this 2022, I thought of shaking things up and stepping up to the challenge. So I applied at a travel technology company for a Director role. I got accepted and while I know it’s a little scary after being in my comfort zone for years, I’d say I’ve never felt more excited and more enthused by this new opportunity. So wish me luck.
