Social Media Day 2016: TayoPH


This might be the funniest introduction in the history of Social Media Day! Don't be fooled, this year's theme is very timely after the unfriending that's happening during the election.

  
Rebuild, reconnect, reboot, refriend. You might at least, unfollowed or unfriended someone during the election time. What is Social Media really is? Connect.


Unconnect to connect.We are having too much Social Media and it is due time to bridge with family, friends and ourselves, again.


5th Social Media Day together with our online communities from North Luzon, Manila, and other cities in the Philippines.

We’re celebrating how social media is more powerful than ever – it can empower. It can move. It can bridge.

We’ve experienced collaboration and brainstorming through Facebook. How the world can make ideas come to life through crowdfunding. How the common folk have influenced public thought and policies. How a video gone viral can bring justice to a victim.

This 2016, Social Media Day Philippines is #TayoPH. A reminder that we can use social media to bridge, to give a voice and to empower.

Let’s stand together as a people. Rebuild, reconnect, reboot, refriend. After all the negativity that has flooded our feeds, it’s time to make the conversation positive and productive again. Let us celebrate social media’s triumphs and recall its potential. Let us harness social media’s power in bringing people together, in crossing boundaries, and merging divides.

Must Try ATV Ride and Sand Surfing in Ilocos


At first, I am not excited for the Paoay activity such as riding ATV, sand dunes coastal desert and sand surfing.


But boy, I was wrong! After just the ride along the dunes with this neon green extreme 4x4, this is officially my favorite part of our Ilocos trip!


We opted the afternoon or sunset trip to Paoay adventures. It started as roaming and enjoying the dunes and beach and unbelievable tracks that will make your adrenaline run!


Looks easy but its not! But unique experience. Beware, it is not easy to climb.


Just ride and think you are a winner!


If you fail, just enjoy..


Stand up again and never give up!
