I needed an escort going to Blogapalooza. ( Coco Martin was an option ) Fortunately, ( for Coco Martin?) my husband was available.

Tadaah…Presenting my dashing date to Blogapalooza 2014 at the SM Aura Convention Center.

We had a fantabulous date.

For bloggers like me, Blogapalooza is the prom night and the Superbowl of business to blogger networking events.

The annual event is presented by When In Manila and Our Awesome Planet. It gives bloggers the opportunity to try products, brands and services.
