Getgo Peso+ Prepaid Card

Today, I got my Getgo Peso+ Prepaid Card. In fact, this is my first emv-embedded card, which by far is more secured than ordinary cards.

The Getgo Peso+ Prepaid Card works like a Debit Card, but does not require you to open a bank account. You can do usual monetary transactions like online purchases and payment, top-up, and real-time fund transfers on visa-enabled establishments. You can also withdraw from ATMs at a certain charge same as fund transfers (Php 20.00 fixed rate for domestic) and balance inquiry (Php 5.00 fixed rate for domestic). This card is powered by Cebu Pacific and is issued by Robinson's Outlets and certain Unionbank Branches. 

What's exciting about this card is that it has an embedded Getgo Account, which works good for you if you don't have one yet. But if you have an existing Getgo Account, you can link this card for shared points. It has an automatic accrual of Getgo Points. You can earn 1 Getgo Point for every Php 88.00 spent on your Getgo Peso+ Card. This is the same with Getgo Debit, but without the Annual Fee to be collected by Unionbank. 

You can accumulate points on your spending transactions, and you can use your earned points for free flights by Cebu Pacific Air.

You can purchase the Getgo Peso+ Prepaid Card at selected Robinson's Outlets and Unionbank Branches, which is listed at the official website of Getgo.

One important reminder: you can apply online in order to get this card. The full steps and methods are also found on their official website. For more information, please visit www.getgo.com.ph.

Hope you had a head start about Getgo Peso+ Prepaid Card! Get yours now !

New Cafe in Davao

Over the years, Davao has become busy and populated. Along is the growth of small businesses and enterprises. Cafes located at dense places in the metro such as along Torres and Bajada tend to be more expensive. But there are other cafes located just a few steps away from busy areas that are worth visiting. One of them is the Sea Green Cafe.



Sea Green Café and Boutique Rooms is located along 15 Jacinto Extension, Dona Vicenta Subdivision. It is a rather yet to be explored strip of good cafes and restaurants. 



The place boasts for a wonderfully landscaped garden and outside area. Good architectural design is evident from first look. It was once a family owned house, which turned into a rental area. And it was a good conversion ever since.



Chairs and tables. But the interior design makes it very inviting. It has ample space for private talks and studying. It welcomes peace and tranquility. The decorative plants are legit. 



A family home that is well taken care of. Majestic door, high ceiling, and open windows. 

The food here is surprisingly cheaper than what you usually expect on central areas. They have appetizers, soup, main course, pastas, salads and sandwiches. Here is a closer look on the menu: 



We took a modest Cucumber Slush and a Chocolate Pudding.



It was served fast, not much customers that time though. And it was good. The flavours never came cheap.

The place has wifi access and is open until 10pm. So its not for all-nighters.

If you are interested, you can come by and visit them. Enjoy!

New Year 2018

2017 is a year with multitude of stories, success and failures. I almost got lost sense of time, everything happened very fast. I graduated, passed the boards, and took several months of break, just not doing anything. It was a year of experiences, and I want to learn from these. 

But 2018 may be different. Last year, I promised to myself that I would redeem victories for my career, for my family, and for personal growth. 

I will make sure that my 2018 will be victorious, because now more than ever, I am willing to stand up from my mistakes, willing to search for new experiences and never stop brewing excellence. 

Cheers to a new year 2018!
