April is Earth Month – a crucial time to unite in raising environmental awareness and fostering sustainable solutions. In celebration of this event, we are happy to announce that we are hosting a workshop called Earth Month Movement, in partnership with Decathlon Philippines.

This workshop targets individuals who are interested in getting involved in marine conservation. We will start with learning the basics of freediving with our Molchanovs Instructor DepthFit Freediving, followed by a Mermaiding class focusing on art and advocacy with our Mermaid instructor Em Quintana. Lastly, we'll cover the marine conservation topic about beauty and fragility and our role as divers with our ocean ambassador Cha Ocampo.

The event will take place on April 21, 2024, at 2pm in the community area of Decathlon Alabang.

Reserve your spot by clicking the link to register. The first 30 participants will receive a special token from brands sharing our commitment to protecting our oceans.

Let's join hands to minimize our carbon footprint and protect our planet's precious resources. Together, we can make a difference and combat the harmful effects of climate change.

To ensure that I can do my part in protecting the environment, I need to take care of myself first. That includes keeping my teeth strong and bright, thanks to my DentaCare fam!

So, to be ready for the sun and the sea, as well as meeting different people, i-DentaCare mo na yan!

A couple of photos from Austria that I forgot to post. I visited this beautiful little town called Hallstatt. This time, I used my new 20mm F1.8 lens, and I love how versatile it is.

What I love about it:

•⁠ ⁠1st slide: You can shoot wide-angle shots sharply
•⁠ 2nd slide: You can also shoot portraits with a good amount of bokeh.
•⁠ 3rd slide: It’s light and compact as well, which makes my setup with the Alpha 6700 so easy to travel with!

The f1.8 aperture is good creates beautiful bokeh background in portraits. It’s a great wide-angle lens, especially when capturing landscapes. It’s also a good vlogging lens since it’s not too close-up like some portrait lenses.

So overall, if you’re looking to buy a versatile lens - I definitely recommend this!

A lot of the activities I do are mostly outdoors. I’m always exposed to the sea, sun, altitude, dirt, wind and other elements (you name it! 😆). When I dive, I spend a lot of time in the ocean. When I run, I spend a lot of time under the sun. When I travel, I am exposed to different weather, sometimes it’s humid, dry, cold. My skin needs all the protection in order to prevent it from getting dry & irritated which almost always happens but with ’s Moisturizing lotion it has helped me have moisturized skin with its 48-hour hydration benefit! Truly , and I can freely do the things I love now without worrying about my skin!

Favorite time of the day: my coffee break! I might start having more as we in a few days with .ph! ✨☕🤎

Any guesses for what the new system will come with? Perhaps new flavors, bigger sizes? 🤔 We’ll find out soon!

Freshening up after another long day of being in the water. With my line of work, I always need to put my best face forward. And having sensitive skin doesn't make it easier, that's why now I only use products that are dermatologist-approved and are proven to give like Cetaphil! Now I'm all 😉

The Ocean & I 🌊

I haven’t been back diving yet, but a few dive-related events that I’m excited for this 2023

• Cooking up a dive (scuba & freedive beginner friendly) group trip that I will host
• I will be one of your Instructor’s assistant for a dive camp happening on April 😉
• Solo freedive trip(s) I was planning since last year 🤞🏼
• Unfinished scuba & freedive certifications that I promise to pursue this year

The reason why I don’t have new content is because at the moment I am in the middle of planning the next steps in my career, as well as working hard privately for other personal goals 🫶🏼

Bear with me as I try to keep up online 😅

Did you know that the Philippines forms an ocean region that has long been recognized as the world’s center of marine biodiversity?

Well, to be fair— I wouldn’t even know about it if I didn’t get into diving.

Covering a major portion of the Coral Triangle which includes other countries such as Indonesia, Malaysia, Papua New Guinea, the Solomon Islands and Timor-Leste, the Philippines is a global centre for marine biodiversity.

But our country is struggling to conserve its marine life in the face of overfishing, destructive fishing practices, growing plastic pollution, and climate change.

The ocean is becoming emptier.

Some film pics where I’m smiling in the photo. As happy as I am in these photos, I want to be real and talk about how I really feel at the moment. There is this version of me that has been leading my life for the past few days now, and it feels melancholic.

All my life, I have only learned how to love with all that I have. When I hurt, I make sure I don’t step in to others and take revenge. I just heal in silence despite how excruciating it is. One thing I have noticed as I go through all the challenges in life, I’ve learned how to empathize in ways that I never thought I could.

I thank those people who choose to do good despite their own struggles. The world is constantly changing, we’re all losing focus & I fear that we slowly lose sight of the people in our lives that truly matters.

Remember: the people that cares the most without asking for anything in return, needs kindness from other people too 💙
