Mabuhay! 

Welcome to my public diary---born out of inspiration, sometimes plagued by idleness, but it tries to carry on.

It all started with a TV show. Ingrid Chua just arrived from Milan. I was browsing through my cable channels and I found her in dark sunglasses talking about her experiences during Fashion Week. Ingrid's interview on Cocktails took me to The Bag Hag Diaries, the blog she authors where she writes everything about bags, the British Royal Family, and her travels. Fast forward to a few years later, she went to Cebu for an event. Being the avid fan (tempted to use rabid) that I was, I dropped her a DM on Instagram. With an invite, I was able to meet her in person. 

From then on, I started writing about my thoughts on fashion and travel experiences under the name Red Eye. Oddly inspirited by an illness, Red Eye as a moniker somehow sparked quite a few conversations. Some guesses are wrong. Some are right. Its origin is quite straightforward. I had conjunctivitis when I wrote my first blog and for lack of interesting names to use, I took inspiration from my sore eyes. 

Very recently though, I have only been focusing on my travels with some fashion stories in between. Gone are the days when I would do fashion reviews, but the love for fashion will always be undestroyed. I don't really see myself as a good story teller. There's nothing extra in my writing. My photographs are ordinary. But I'll take you with me in every travel story, through each photograph, one word at a time. 


XoXo, 


Red Eye :-)
