Everything I Did on My Weekend in Manila: Nightlife Edition
In contrast to Davao, Manila is a place that never sleeps, especially for certain night spots like Makati or Timog, the current top two party destinations in the metro. Hence, many dwellers outside of the capital prefer partying there. I have been traveling to Manila almost every month for at least four days to attend concerts by my beloved artists. While it would be more economical to fly in and out quickly, as a single girl, I feel it would be a waste to do so, especially since there is so much to enjoy in the city. On my trips to Manila, I almost always opt to stay in Makati…

Being one of the writers and the main editor, the past few weeks have been hectic. Although I manage to keep my work-life balance, sometimes, I would need a bit of a boost in my life.

Street Portraits Taken By realme 12 5G
So I’ve recently joined realme’s annual photowalk using their latest model, the realme 12 5G. This might be the first photo blog that I’ve product so far, because it will be photo-heavy. So the photowalk started at almost 5pm, where the realme people divided all participants into groups. I was part of Route 1, Group 2, which started at Osmeña Park, heading to People’s Park, and finally at Poblacion. Although the photowalk time was set during the golden hour, yesterday was cloudy. Nevertheless, we had the realme 12 5G to back us up in taking photos. I have mostly used the Maverick filter on the real me 12 5G because…
