Coca Cola's Taste the Feeling Festival: Alden Richards, Spongecola and Many More!

Went to the Coca-Cola Taste the Feeling Festival and I had a blast!!! I kinda knew that there will be lots of people since it's a free concert and Alden Richards is in their line-up, but I didn't expect the crowd to be that big. I thought I would never get inside the venue! Haha. I got there at around 6pm and I had a hard time looking for the media reg area due to the mass of people blocking the entrances (they had to stop letting people in coz it was too crowded na inside) and I couldn't get through. They had to call for a bouncer to escort me in and I could feel the people in line death staring me. Sorry na po magcocover lang. Hehe. Anyway, once inside, I immediately met up with Ana and then we proceeded backstage (courtesy of Tracy & Spongecola! Thank yeww). Stories and photos below...

Deals galore + extra savings! You might ask (I did!), how’s that even possible???  Well, here’s how!

My Ensogo "The Heat Is On" Top Picks

It is not a secret that I'm a huge fan of group buying sites. I've lost count of the number of times I've bought items and booked getaways through these sites. I used to be an addict. I used to spend 2-3 hours a day just browsing, trying to look for the best deals! It's one of my guilty pleasures. Haha. I have tamed a little but I still check once in a while.

Anyway, one of the pioneers in this line of business is ENSOGO. This is where I often shop for clothes, salon & beauty services (hello digi perm & diamond peel haha), food / restaurant deals & hotel accommodations. So much savings from so many partner merchants!

Here's Part 3 of my Boracay post! In my previous entries, I've shared with you our budget for the whole trip, and the reasons why we love Second Wind. As I said in my first post, our average total expense per person was just P9,000 for 5 days including airfare, transfers & accommodation! It helped that we went there as a group  because we were able to divide some expenses like our tricycle ride to Spider House, our island hopping tour, food, etc. I asked the group how much they spent on food, commute, activities and miscellaneous expenses-- majority & total average is P4,000. One of my cousins even said P2k lang! How did we do it? See my photos & stories below...

Boracay 2016: 8 Reasons Why You Should Stay at Second Wind Bed, Bunk & Breakfast

I am a huge fan of hostels or cheap accommodations in general. Why? It's because there are a lot of decent places you could stay at that are actually super nice yet extremely budget friendly! When you're on vacation naman you usually spend most of your time outside the hotel, right? So, why waste money on pricey hotel rooms? Unless it's a staycation and your only plan is to stay inside, relax and watch TV, then go, indulge and gastos away. Haha. In our case, and in mostly all my cases, we just needed a home base. Someplace to sleep & bathe in. Second Wind gave us that and MORE! They were voted as one of the top hostels in Boracay. Here's why...

Boracay 2016: Flight, Accommodation, Transfers & 5-Day Pocket Money for P9000

No matter how many times I've been in one place, no trip is ever the same. EVER. I guess that's also one of the best things about traveling. There's just always something new to discover-- new places, new activities, new faces, new people. I just came home from a 5-day Boracay trip and it was AMAZING. I had been to Boracay countless times, but this was the first time I was with a large group (with family & friends from Barangay EDM 6th Avenue Cubao! Haha!), first time I stayed in a posh & budget hostel, and first time to meet so many strangers (now friends) and actually spent time with them! There were a few first-timers in the group (making it more exciting) and since all of us are budget conscious, we tried to make our trip as cheap as possible without sacrificing quality & fun! This is how we did it...

Thiocell: Breakthrough Gluthatione Lozenges Launch

It's not a secret that I am a fan of gluthathione. I have taken capsules in the past, as well as glutha IV shots from YSA Skincare. Aside from having more radiant and clearer skin (it won't really make you super white), gluthatione also helps in detoxification of the liver and boosting the immune system.  It's pretty amazing. And you know me! I badly need that. Haha. So, when I got invited to Thiocell's launch I said yes. I wanted to know what made this brand different from the others and what it has to offer. I'm so glad I did! Learned so much that afternoon from the guest doctors/dermatologists. So, what makes Thiocell different and probably THE best gluthatione in the market?
