Eat Well. Travel Often

Your hair is your crowning glory so treat it like a king or queen.

Jing Monis - a well-renowned hairstylist and make up artist partnered with his loyal Davaoeño clients and built the newest salon in the city. Hair Philosophie by Jing Monis is now open at the 2nd Floor of Abreeza Corporate Center at J.P. Laurel Avenue, Bajada, Davao City. They are offering the latest and professional hair care at affordable prices.

The Davao Bloggers Society was invited to the grand opening last November 18, 2015. I was very pleased to be invited and eventually met Mr. Jing Monis himself. He approached us and had a short talk. He was really friendly and approachable. The media columnists, loyal customers, and celebrities like Kaye Abad, Paul Jake Castillo, Fifth Solomon, Nichole Baranda, and the PBB Big Winner Daniel Matsunaga were also invited to the grand opening. Phoemela Baranda, one of Mr. Monis' ambassadors, hosted the event.

I also had the chance to take selfies with the celebrities. (Fanboy Mode On LOLS!)

The best part was we had the chance to ask questions to the celebrity guests. I already had one in mind FOR KAYE ABAD! I'm sorry, she's just so gorgeous that night. I can still feel how mesmerized I was with her beauty and elegance. Anyway, I just asked her how was the experience as a loyal client of Jing Monis? She said he was her hairstylist ever since and she really love how he cuts her hair. Your hair gets even better after every cut, she said.

Jing Monis mentioned that he trained their Davao hair stylists for months so you will be assured that your hair will be well taken cared of. Jing will also be visiting Davao for appointments so if you want him to cut your hair personally, call the Hair Philosophie Salon to set the appointment at 296-4465, 0917 329 1981, or 0998 859 3688.

Thanks for dropping by! Have a great day!

The Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf hopes to give flavorfully this season in ways that warm our soul as much as the body. I'm lucky enough to be invited to their Holiday Launch and a fun watercolor session last November 7, 2015 at their shop in SM Lanang Premier.

This year, The Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf is offering several ways to share the holiday spirit with this season's favorites. They will serve two special holiday flavors in two variations - iced drink and warm latte. The Winter Dream Tea is a drink that has come to be anticipated by coffee lovers. It has rooibos and black tea blended with sweet spices and hints of vanilla. The newest addition is the Toffee Nut which has a buttery caramelized sugar with a hint of nut, paired with the richness of espresso and a sprinkle of toffee bits.

CBTL will also be releasing the new edition of The Giving Journal. I am a real fan of notebooks, planners, and the like (even though I don't want to write something on it, I just want to collect. LOL!) The 2016 Giving Journal comes in four colors - Tiffany Blue, Mustard Yellow, Brown (Tan) and Violet. Collect 12 stamps by purchasing a regular or a large-sized drink to claim it. Promo period is from October 23, 2015 to January 10, 2016.

The 2016 Giving Journal not only inspires each individual to brew one's best year but also it gives back flavorfully to the community. It has partnered with the Real LIFE Foundation to support the educational needs of the less fortunate. So this is not you ordinary planner, because you are able to share your blessings to the 38 university scholars so that they can fulfill their dreams and help their families.

We also had a fun watercolor session with Ms. April San Pedro during the launch. She taught us how to write letters using watercolor. It was not that easy yet it was really fun! Thanks Ms. April and Sir Joel Bagas from Fujifilm for the nice Instax shots.
