April 20, 2018 by Alvin Adarne Leave a Comment

Summer time is spending more time with my kids and having fun activities that we both enjoy. Even more special is experiencing something for the first time.

Last Sunday we have stumble upon Arrowland by Gandiva inside SM North EDSA Annex. it is an Indoor archery range that brings archery to people without any experience with archery. Arrowland wants to encourage everyone to try archery as a fun activity with family or friends.

My eldest daughter Ykaie did not hesitate to ask me if we could try it. How could I say no? It is a perfect opportunity to bond with her. Arrowland SM North EDSA has limited lanes so we waited for others to finish but the wait was not that long. And if you’re one who does not want to wait, you can leave your number at the nice lady at the counter and she will send you a message if it’s near your turn at the range.

I have struggled to find a reliable service center with a good mechanic outside of your regular “casa” or the cars’ brand service center. I back read every forum website about cars in an effort to locate the nearest local service center I can trust. Luckily, I stumbled upon this discussion in one of my favorite group in Facebook. There were a bunch of guys that are proud owners of Toyota Innova talking about the same problem and one of them recommended this service center near our place. The name of the place is Motech and apparently they have a lot of branches spread all through out the Metro.

They offer a list of services and packages to suit every car owner’s needs. They also offer membership that entitles you to discounts, towing service, and insurance. I opted to get their membership offer and also got one of their packages for change oil because the packaged would be cheaper if you’re a member and it will already include all the perks of being a member, I could not let that pass.

Dapper Don’s Barber Shop

April 10, 2018 by Alvin Adarne 1 Comment

Gentlemen grooming is very important special when it comes to our hair. It’s our crowning glory, our lion mane, our pride and joy. Finding a good barber is very hard nowadays. And if you do find one often times you need to wait in line for hours or pray that your barber is in a good mood to cut your hair properly.

I recently tried Dapper Don’s in Banawe, Q.C. The name itself means new age gentlemen with class. It is described in Urban Dictionary as the standard of what an Adonis strives to be, the envy of most boys, and the desire of all women, queens and goddesses “A real man is a Dapper Don not a nigga”.

I have tried numerous new barber shops that cater to new age of men with swagger and Dapper Don’s is one of my favorites. The ambiance is very comfortable and relaxing.

When I arrive I am always greeted by their front desk attendant. She is nice and very friendly. She even accommodated me yesterday without a reservation but it is better to call ahead of time to have a reservation set for you. Their Signature Cut is very affordable and it comes with a hair cut, shampoo, hot face towel, massage, and shave not so bad for ₱350.00.

After the hair cut I felt relaxed and Dapper Don ready to face whats ahead of me with confidence.
