Blogapalooza 2013 for Bloggers and Businesses

Running a blog - based business is not easy that is why I am always looking for events about using blogging and business together. Blogapalooza 2013 is one of the few kick - ass events to connect with  fellow bloggers and discover products I can collaborate with. 

I want to maximize the potential of my blog and one of this is my dream of working with my dream big brands, events / meetups and famous personalities in the travel industry since this is the niche of my blog. 

I want to spread this to the rest of the Philippine blogosphere and business - owners who believe in the power of social media.  See you there!

My Philippines’ Top Travel Blogs for 2013

Five years ago when I moved from Bicol to Manila because of work, I was a shy provenciana then who only knew three places from where I rent a space: my office, the  church and the nearest mall I can hangout on my rest days. That’s how small I thought the world is. But everything changed when I met a number of foreign travelers who visited the country recently. Their travel stories made such a great impact that I got bitten by the travel bug quickly.  Meeting them through a traveler’s website, opened a door for me to join a local travel community and to meet the local travelers.  I got very curious big time on how they made it possible to go places that I discovered most of them have blogs where they share their travel experiences. I did started my own  travel blog too but my accomplishments since I have work on holidays are just a dot to what they have. This is how I got hooked up on travel blogs.
