TELL US A LITTLE SOMETHING ABOUT YOURSELF.

A Capricorn and marketing graduate with entrepreneurial aspirations. I am obsessed with meticulously dreaming of the future and crafting paths toward it.

I draw my energy from the sun 🌞, music 🎶, and bread! 🍞

I am a lover of the sun. The way it kisses my skin with warmth and makes everything prettier when it sets brings me slow healing inside and out. Music is my fuel—I cannot go a day without it. Life simply starts when I hit play! I am also my own bread connoisseur endlessly on the quest of finding the best bread. It is the way to my heart 🙂


TAKE US TO YOUR FAVORITE PLACE.

Destination: Siargao, Philippines 🇵🇭 and San Sebastián, Spain 🇪🇸

Siargao: A charming untouched little pearl of our archipelago. Everything blends so naturally and beautifully there. A place to organically let go and breathe! 🌊

San Sebastián: A treasure for foodies like me and beach lovers! Truly a gastronomic mecca and food capital in Spain—tons of Michelin-starred local restaurants and bars you’ll fall in love with!

Although both places are completely different, they give the best of both worlds: amazing food crawl experiences and the beach all in a little distinctly cultured town 💛

Where to go:

Siargao: General Luna, Sugba Lagoon, Maasin River, Sohoton Cove, Naked Island, Daku Island, Guyam Island

San Sebastián: La Concha Beach, Old Town, Santa Clara Island, Basilica de Santa Maria del Coro, and Playa de la Zurriola

What to do:

Siargao: island hop, a food crawl, hidden cliff jump at Sugba Lagoon, stand-up paddle through Malinao Mangroves, palm tree swing in Maasin River, and enjoyable volunteer work at The Sun Crew or Nature Kids Siargao for a more meaningful getaway! 🌼

San Sebastián: pintxos bar crawl (all day) in Old Town, get some sun or swim in La Concha Beach, take a ferry to Santa Clara Island where you can nature stroll to the lighthouse, take a dip in the natural beach pool, and have a cup of coffee overlooking the city.

Where to eat:

Siargao: Kermit, Shaka Cafe, Bravo, Bake Cafe, Yeah Yeah Tacos, Miguel’s Taqueria, Kalinaw Restaurant, and Mama’s Grill

San Sebastián: Atari, Bartolo House, Borda Berri, Bar Sport, Bar Nestor, Gandarias, and Quebec (Crepes)

Where to stay:

Siargao: Maison Bukana, Isla Cabana, Bravo, Punta Punta Surf Retreat, Pagoda Villa or Arka

San Sebastián: Any beachfront apartment like La Plage Zurriola by IB. Apartment for a charming coastal home feel 🐚 Warning: it’s super cozy! 😮‍💨 The Rentals Collection by Treasure, The “Zu” Suite Apartment, and Jai Alai 54 by FeelFree Rentals are beautiful ones too.

Must-have adventure staple: my phone and Wink’s Laser Hair Removal


ON THE HORIZON

You need some rest and relaxation, where would you go next:

Subic Bay—where I grew up and get to live my little “Outer Banks” life once in a while haha 🌟 It’s perfect for a quick getaway—a place filled with lush forests, a refreshing coastline, hidden adventures, and a close-knit community—only two hours away from the city. It’s like a little Alabang but with the sea. 🙂
