I started blogging,late last year. When I decided to write down my recipes and home cooked meals but you know when it comes to cooking there is a never ending stories and learning.The good thing about cooking is we can experiment and explore. I still like to learn more about local/international dishes and for me to able to that is I have to travel and see it with my own eyes. That's why I love reading cookbooks and travel magazines . It is very helpful and gives an lot of ideas.
It was a very informative and fun event hosted by Mr.Julian Rodriguez.
I was able to meet all the people behind the creative concept of Explore Philippines Magazine like Ms. France Pinzon ( Editor-in-chief )Ms.Christina Po,(Publisher),Alyssa Lapid(Managing Director) Jester Pamulaklakin (Creative Director),Means Hona ( Account Executive ) Eena Macaspac ( Social Media Officer )
