The Best Of Taal

THE BEST OF TAAL not just the volcano and the lake.

Taal Heritage Town, a surprising town in the province of Batangas, a lot of us associated the word Taal to its famous Taal Volcano and the Taal lake without even knowing that there are lots and lots of scenic - historic and natural beauties in here, from century old houses, shrines and churches to a calmly beach resorts facing south.

Taal is a Spanish colonial town in the late 16th to 20th century and it also holds one of the prestigious places in the Philippines history.

Christmas in Zamboanga City

"SINONG NAGSASABI NA MAGULO SA ZAMBOANGA CITY?" Well, the lights can tell you how safe you are when you are in the city. I am a proud Zamboangeño, I grew up there studied and had my first job way back year 2003.

Taken by By Querilyn Aba Dec. 2011

Zamboanga City, is a city that can offer what other city can, and may give you more than what you want. City night life is just the same as Manila has, Restobars with live bands are everywhere. During daytime it's "business as usual", you can go to Barter Trade Center at Canelar,  visit some malls and drop by at the Pasalubong Center  near the Fort Pilar as well and refresh yourselves at the Paseo del mar during sun setting.

Taken by By Querilyn Aba Dec. 2011

Every December, this building (City Hall) is transforming into an enchanted kingdom of lights, where colorful Christmas light decors are shining and sparkling attracting visitors to come closers and discover its beauty face to face. Promising its people the brighter city ahead.

Zamboanga City is a city for all, a simple place with natural richness that soon to show you more. 

I spent my Christmas in my home town 3 years ago, and my one week vacation is not enough to rediscover the beauty of Zamboanga City.

Beautiful Face of Diana

Part 1 of 3


Part 1
Bright lives behind the beautiful face of  Diana. 

DIANA STALDER face and body skin care center, started since 1996 "from the FILIPINO PEOPLE to  the FILIPINO PEOPLE" and for the World. A company runs by a true Filipina  the very own Ms. Dina Stalder merried to a Swiss man Mr. Stalder.

Diana Stalder is a bastion of real beauty inside and out, why? because of two important substances. Number 1 is the beauty of helping thousands of fellow Filipinos in fulfilling their dreams by giving them jobs and power to create a product that we must be proud of. Imagine beauty products from our country are exporting to   some  known countries in the world such as  United States, United Kingdom, Singapore, Bangladesh, Korea and more. And behind every beauty item, we can see hard works and talents of a true Filipino.

Number 2, The beauty of giving affordable "high quality services and products" to everyone. The serious question is why affordable but high quality, is it true? The answer is YES! Why not? Diana Stalder operates their laboratory here in the Philippines and work forces are from here, they don't import things they export things.  So if you're a big time business man/woman are you going to sell your products at unreasonable prices wherein you didn't even outsource the whole process outside your house? of course not. Same thing goes to Diana Stalder.

Daiana Menezes: Official Endorser 

No wonder that Diana Stalder has easily come this far, from one branch to a numerous branches nationwide. Because they have the vision of  helping many lives and a mission to fulfill it.
