I never thought that blogging would get me on a magazine. Well, it was not really about me but on the “Best Places to Live” in the Philippines. Last February, I was e-mailed by Heinz Bulos of MoneySense magazine with four questions as to why I think Bacolod City is the best place to live in the country.
I expect some of my answers to be quoted but the article exceeded my expectations. All of my answers were quoted in that article. Not that I’m complaining. I guess that earned me bragging rights, right?
Fellow Ilonggo bloggers Marcos and Junelle were also interviewed regarding Iloilo City. I’m quite proud that Bacolod and Iloilo were on the Top 5 of the Best Places to Live in the country. We made the right choice. This is home.
