Very, very thrilled to share that I am (again) a newspaper columnist! Starting February 20, 2015, I will be one of the columnists at Gold Star Daily, Mindanao’s largest newspaper. I have named my column “Mindanaoan Meets World” as I plan to write about lifestyle, music, a little bit of politics and showbiz and travel not only within the Philippines but around the world, too!
My first stint as newspaper correspondent, columnist and part-time editor started way, way back. Like eons of light years ago haha! But life happened, I took a career detour and eventually, was already happy and contented to just work with the traditional media practitioners instead 
With this new development, though, I guess this is not only trying my hand again at writing for a daily newspaper but also my way of reaching out to a larger audience and strengthening my “Mindanaoan” brand
“Mindanaoan Meets World” will be out every Friday and will be part of the “Urban Life” section
Mindanao Gold Star released a feature about us, the new columnists. It was published last February 16, 2015 If you have, by any chance, a copy of that release, please feel free to take a selfie featuring you and the newspaper and send that to me via my Facebook page I will feature that in my blog
Thank you very much to the Gold Star Daily family for this amazing opportunity! And thank you so much to my readers for the support. I hope you can buy copies of the newspaper every Friday Salamat!
