I ran for "jan"

-

        Last Sunday, Nov 18,2012 I had the privilege to be one of the four sponsored social media blogger to support "Run for Hope '12" a run for a cause wherein all proceeds and benefits go  to  House of Hope , a free transient home housing 21 cancer stricken children who are all battling to survive their early childhood against cancer. 
        The race was organized by Davao Light & Power Company under their "Kaibigan Gives Back" program. 
     The said event was a full success. (DPLC) employees as well as individual runners ran with enthusiasm each empowered with a generous cause by heart. Raffle and Prizes were given after the race. 
      

I ran for a child named "Jan"

Who says you cant put together a delightful coffee fix, good food and art?  SPARK COFFEE+CRAFTS  is not just your ordinary cafe in the streets of Marfori. In Davao, there may be a hundred and more cafes to choose from when all you wanted to do is to release stress after a days work. During the last leg of DDI's month long Davao food crawl, i was happy to find myself sitting in this really artsy cafe and being able to try out their food offerings is heaven! While waiting for the food, I took photos of the cafe to  show you whats inside Spark Coffee + Crafts. this cafe is owned by 5 cousins who at first was into arts and crafts  and  selling it online but later on decided to venture into owning up their own cafe where people cannot  just sit and have coffee alone but to also have an artsy experience  because Spark hold art workshops once in a while. Ive heard about Spark for quite sometime already but it is only until las weekend that i was able to visit the
