Last July 16, I had the chance to visit Manila with my best buddies, and we found ourselves strolling around Bonifacio Global City (BGC) on a not-so-sunny afternoon. Our main goal was to hang out at Uptown Mall, but before we even got there, something already caught our eye—Frankie’s New York Buffalo Wings along 8th Avenue.

I had the incredible opportunity to attend the exclusive preview and hands-on review of Samsung's latest innovations, the Galaxy Z Fold7 and Z Flip7, in Manila on July 4, 2025. As a user of the Galaxy Z Flip4, I was particularly excited to experience these new devices up close and personal. Here’s a recap of my impressions from the event.

I recently spent a night at Coro Hotel in Makati when we were invited by COMCO for an event. It was just a short stay, but I appreciated the overall comfort and convenience. The hotel’s located along Kalayaan Avenue in Poblacion, so it was easy to get around, and the atmosphere felt relaxed from the moment I checked in.

Last June 30, 2025, something extraordinary unfolded at the heart of the Davao Global Township—a celebration that brought smiles, nostalgia, and a whole lot of fries. As a longtime McDonald’s fan, I had the immense joy and honor of witnessing the grand opening of the 800th McDonald’s store in the Philippines, right here in Davao City.

I stayed at Hop Inn Makati Avenue during a recent trip to Manila. Thought I’d share a bit about the experience—what I liked, what stood out, and a few things to keep in mind if you’re planning to stay there too.
