We are best known for our never ending
SUNSHINE..
At least that’s what I remember from
that GLEE episode with Charice Pempengco in it.. haha
Well I agree with that literally and figuratively..
Because SUNSHINE also means our happy
disposition in life as PINOYS..
It can also mean our crazy beautiful beaches that shines even
brighter because of our tropical
weather..
And lastly the beautiful people that we truly are..
Anyway I’d like to talk more about our
coverboys MIKE and GAB..
And if you guys are wondering –MIKE was
our previous coverboy during our first anniversary issue a few years back..
I remember him telling us his weight
loss story and the story behind their amazing resort “VILLA ALFREDO”..
Now 2 years after (if I remember
things correctly.. haha) he comes back on our pages with his younger brother GAB..
And It was just amazing how these boys
lose all their gut just like that..

really proud of him as well
Q:

did a great job
Q:
We remember your stint in a newspaper months after Stalk came out.. can you
tell us how everything came to place?

Well I’m just thankful for all the modeling opportunities given to me
(including STALK for making me their cover twice) because they are just all

just really all blessings from God, you just have to trust him and always work
hard, eventually you will get want you want and even more

How did you land that gig?
A:
It was for fifth code a street wear brand (they have amazing clothes BTW) my

was working with such talented people from the models to the photographer

you tell us about your bag business?
A:
Its actually my thesis for school because i'm an EM student, and it’s been an
amazing experience it made me really learn a lot about the triumphs and
sacrifices of being an entrepreneur. I sell water resistant string bags I made
it for athletes, but it is also very useful for students and the working class
because of it functionality, it also comes in 20 different designs. My bags are
currently available in “just things” located at Marcos highway and at ZALORA
for the online shoppers, and if you guys were wondering my brand is named
“Haversack”
Q:
how did you come up with the name of the brand?
A:
Well it I just wanted a brand name that was new, classy, and related to bags so
I did a bit of research then boom ‘Haversack’ haha and now its DTI registered
Q:
How did it all start?
A:
Well you just really have to find what people need or are looking for, once you
spot that opportunity. Do some research, make a plan, and get some capital
then your all set.
Q:
advise for our readers who would like to start their own line of business?
A:
just be patient, work hard, and never be afraid to fail, because failure is
inevitable and in the business world you will encounter a lot of problems and
road blocks, but you just have to be positive and bounce back even stronger
Q:
We remember that you had a #sosyproblem wayback our first shoot haha.. when you
didn't know what specific course to take back then.. how did you resolve that?

Plan your life haha and contemplate a lot. I’m the type of person who wants to
be my own boss, and be in control of my own time. So I realized being an
