Pwede Padala Gal — Tue, 09 Feb 2021 15:45:00 +0000

When I moved to my new apartment amidst a pandemic, I made sure to furnish it with four kitchen essentials before moving in. I can’t do without a toaster, microwave, electric kettle, and water filter. If I can only choose one I’ll definitely choose a water filter and fortunately I get the hang of it […]

It took me a long time to find my travel backpack (CabinZero). The same thing happened when I was looking for a minimalist spring and fall jacket. When my old jacket didn’t fit for some reason, it took me a year to find Botanie Vegan Puffer by Aritzia. My winter coat and hoodie are made […]
