MAKE A DIFFERENCE ONE TRIP AT A TIME

Challenge Completed!#40DaysofGreatness with LGG4 for LG Mobile Philippines

8/16/2015

"What greatness means to you?" That was a powerful question asked by LG Mobile Philippines to their followers and I accepted the challenge to answer this question through my instavideos. Let my video diary show you what is greatness to me. From people, places, celebrations and special moments, I celebrate a little bit of GREATNESS in everything that I do.

Exactly 40 days ago, I was browsing my Sole Searching Soul Facebook Page when I saw a sponsored post on my newsfeed so I checked what's the buzz on LG Philippines Instagram account.

Aside from taking selfies and travel photos, I also love recording random videos especially when I am travelling or even sharing some great moments with family and friends.

Here are some of my entries for the video diary inspired by what
I've seen in Pepe Diokno's
LGG4 The Great Gallery.
What do you think about it?

I was really amazed by the portrait artists in Tam-Awan Heritage Village like Ate Jen.
They give their best even though they only charge Php 200 for every session. For me their artwork is priceless especially if you have an acclaimed travel photographer/writer as your model!

I fell in love with the whale shark the moment I saw it and it left me breathless after our first interaction in #Donsol! Swimming with the gentle giant is one of my great travel experiences so far! I highly recommend this activity when you are in Sorsogon.

DAY25: SUPPORTING FILIPINO ARTISTS AND TRADITIONAL CRAFTS
I'm also a crafter by heart because I love making handicrafts and expressing myself through arts so I visit Prism Gallery from time to time.

I first met Sir Badz Magsumbol two years ago in Bicol when he was introduced to me by Sir Pancho Piano who is one of the most famous Bicolano artists I know. These two master artists will surely make you proud as a Filipino because of their artworks and advocacy. They use art to make a difference and promote the best of Filipino culture and talent.

DAY33: BEING GREAT MEANS HAVING QUALITY TIME WITH FAMILY

My family is my source of greatness! That's why whenever possible, I go home to Bicol and play with my cute little cousin at the same time bond with the rest of my loved ones. Playtime is also my way of relaxing and sometimes source of unexpected inspiration!

DAY 38: FROM STRANGERS TO FRIENDS OVER A BOTTLE OF SOJU!

I am always thankful for the chance to make new friends especially when I'm on trips here and abroad. We were walking in a random street in DongdaemunMarket when I saw this food tent and asked my travel buddies for us to check it out. I only met Aiza and Justin in South Korea during my winter vacation and they became my friends after travelling together in Seoul.

I am very happy to complete my#40DaysofGreatness Challenge with this instavid of my PAANOD SA LAYAK adventure with my SSEAYP family. They are the amazing people I met when I was selected by the National Youth Commission to be one of the Philippines Ambassador of Goodwill in 2012. Since then, our friendship grows stronger as we make great things happen in our respective fields and advocacies.

I hope I can win one of the LG G4 prizes so that I can take GREAT selfies just like this epic video by Alex which reminds me of my "Magic Palm Selfie" video shot in Baguio City. That's also about the same first time I personally saw greatness in the hand and eyes of Melo Villareal when he used his LGG4 to take travel photos during our After Summer Group Getaway in Azalea Baguio.

Just in case you're wondering "WHY I WANT TO WIN THIS CHALLENGE AND WHAT'S MY MOTIVATION FOR JOINING?" Aside from being a natural storyteller (talkative!) and being obsessed with documenting my trips on YouTube, I also think LGG4 will be a PERFECT BUDDY especially for people like me who is always on the go seeking for greatness!

I saw this infograph and I thought the new LG G4 would be a great help for me especially now that I am part of Chicken Pork Adobo Network where I will officially launch my ONLINE Travel and Lifestyle Show. I won't have a hard time documenting my Sole Searching Soul journey with LGG4. I can produce great contents and quality video blogs too! Fingers crossed! I hope LG Mobile Philippines will notice my entries among 11,500+ entries!
