Dunlopillo Moments

Sunday, May 18, 2014


It was a nice afternoon, calming, dreamy and ultra comfortable. This was the feeling when we saw Dunlopillo Moments at the Rigodon Ballroom of The Manila Peninsula. It was 8th heaven. Think of European engineering, design, technology and American delineation making it the best in the western world. It's presence in the Philippines just presents the assertion of experts that we are one of the best markets in the Asia Pacific. Our growing economy also means we have purchasing power that this luxury brand simply equates too. They know we spent a third of our lives in bed and you can't equate to any value the comfort we get as we lay down on it.



Dunlopillo is the inventor of latex fabric used in their mattresses and you can see how research and development was put into each piece just by feeling its interior. The idea put into this technology is to make it stable, firm but ultimately comfortable. They use different types of spring, fabric, linings and other parts just to make sure the one who gets Dunlopillos gets the same luxurious sleep that is as heavenly and calming as the customer wants and dreams of. Truth be told, they've got their track record in satisfaction in other parts of the world and they're bound to make one in Asia too.



One of the first countries they knew to have their brand in was the Philippines says Borja Solans the President of Dunlopillo Holdings Inc. They have well researched these for years in Europe and putting them in Asia was but a normal thing because everybody sleeps. They also know the preference of different nationalities differ as some want it firmer, harder, softer and they all recognize that everybody wants that same thing they sleep in a posh hotel. Bringing that to your homes or making it even better was a goal they've long achieved. It depends on the person, they know a soft mattress maybe good for one and bad of another. It's the materials you put on it and the brand that makes it. Dunlopillo mattresses lasts too long and their guarantee is 10 years. That's the ideal time to change one and they still wonder why people invest more in sofas when they spend more time in these mattresses right?! The market is ready for a foreign luxury brands and they think this is perfect timing. Dunlopillo is a reliable brand and they are sure that they are making the right choice every time they get one.



They also introduced their first endorsers in the Philippines namely Azkal's Aly Borromeo, Interior Designer Jess Kienle and Gace Baja of blog The Spoiled Mummy. They said their individual pieces about their experience using the mattresses as they were the first ones to try it. The comfort and rest they got from the products was absolutely life changing and they were so happy about it too. It's also anti bacterial since they use nano silver particles and technology, giving each owner the ultimate sleep they deserve. For those who would want to try, visit their Libis branch at #16 Acropolis Commercial Area at E. Rodriguez Jr. Avenue in Libis Quezon City (Phone Number 9111672) or their EDSA Cubao branch (Phone Number 9131975, Fax Number 9131072) or MC Home Depot Fort Bonifacio (Phone Numer 8156218, Fax Number 8156218) and Cebu (Phone Number 0323451378, Fax Number 0323454051) and see for yourself what I laid on in Makati that afternoon. Tell me what you think about it! :) Enjoy your Dulopillo Moments!

Special Day For Special Kids With Kris Bernal

Saturday, May 17, 2014


The last time I was with Kris Bernal was in the Girls Town which was in far flung location in Marikina City. It's a place for abandoned girls where they get to study and be productive there. She always had a good heart and says she always goes back to that place whenever she has free time. She also takes time off from her hectic schedules and spends that with them. 

Last May 14, she went to a different place and says this was quite special for her. She visited General T. De Leon Elementary School in Karuhatan, Valenzuela City. This is one of the only few public schools that have a dedicated SPED department in Metro Manila so a lot of special children with special needs go here. Together with the City Government of Valenzuela, the Krispers (Kris Bernal's official Fan Club) and her sponsors, they went out of the confines of the GMA building and went all the way north to be with these kids.

Twitter Tweet Up! Live More!

Friday, May 16, 2014



I was ecstatic when I saw a Twitter Tweet Up was happening in Manila. Let alone that the actual people from Twitter were going to be here. Thanks to the good people from Smart Communications Inc., Smart's Social Media Team and Smart Bro for hooking us up just to get to see them in the flesh. From developers, social media professionals, celebrities, power twitter users and bloggers, it was a nice occasion to see the faces behind the usernames.

They started to show a short clip about how Twitter started and how a small social networking and microblogging tool just became a part of our lives. Today, Twitter has around 200 million registered users who send over 400 million tweets daily. The Philippines is a powerhouse and we ain't called the selfie capital of the world if we weren't one of the biggest countries in terms of traffic. You know how powerful we are trending various topics from Mactan to Tirad Pass. Aside from that, the executives, developers and engineers from Twitter were there to have fun with the Pinoy Twitter public!

And of course, the Philippines know how to party! The simple tweet up that was meant for 30 people just ballooned into 200 in just a few hours! Imagine that!



They went ahead and entertained our questions later in the evening. They also gave away official Twitter goodies by asking Trivia questions to the audience. Thanks to founders Jack Dorsey, Noah Glass,Evan Williams and Biz Stone we now have a platform where to express our thoughts in cyberspace through 140 characters.


Shout out to our friends from Twitter @foshihzy @arvindergujral @dbedingfield @lsellier @timw @amishah, I hope you had a great time in Manila and wish you could do more of this TwitterTweetUps soon! Smart Bro promised there will be a next one - and I'm sure that will be even bigger! You can click this for more photos of the TwitterTweetUp in Manila.

Andrea Torres Celebrates Birthday at New Hope SPED Center

Thursday, May 15, 2014


We went to a small suburb in Kamias Quezon City a few days ago with the one and only Andrea Torres to visit the kids at New Hope (SPED) Center. It's her birthday and she wanted it to be something special and all about kids who have special needs. Andrea Torres has a brother in the same predicament and she feels a connection with the kids right after she saw them in the center. She wanted to make them happy so she chose to celebrate here. It was heartwarming and I saw her tear up several times. 


The kids received these goodies from Andrea Torres' sponsors. Thank you so much to Petrol, Active White, Sundance and GMA Artist Center. They also got them bags and school supplies so they can use it in the center. 


Andrea was so thankful to have been able to visit the kids in the center. She even wanted to bring her brother there but he made tantrums that morning and didn't want to stress him out. Her family is taking good care of him and know what these kids are going through. It's not easy and she gives kudos to the educators and volunteers working in New Hope.


New Hope SPED Center thanked Andrea Torres for choosing to celebrate her birthday with them. They were also thankful for the efforts of GMA because other shows also give them time and supplies so kids in the center benefit from them. These kids were really good and they've learned a lot because they're not that unruly. They probably learned how to manage them and give them less stress that's why they're so good mannered. Their outbursts are controlled and whatever their guardians tell them, the kids are so obedient and follow instructions. You can't really see that sometimes on kids who just stay at home and don't get exposed in learning centers like these. The center really did something good with the kids.


Happy happy birthday Andrea! Hope your wishes come true! You can catch Andrea on Bubble Gang every Friday and Sunday All Stars every week. The day after this event, she went to Cambodia with Mikael Daez to promote With A Smile as it was showing there. They've been getting really good feedback from the network there and visiting would strongly promote it. Good luck Andrea! Thank you also GMA Artist Center for letting us tag along and see the kids ourselves.
