Thanks to our friend, Paey,  for inviting us to his new home and for a wonderful christmas dinner.   And for all the single ladies out there, Paey is a very very nice guy, a Stanford graduate, a hardworking Executive Director at AIG, still a bachelor…. living all alone….in a big house….hmmmm 🙂 We are so lucky to be his friend! 🙂

I saw these photos from the facebook page of my Assumption classmate, Jol,  and I asked her if I could share it at Heart2Heart.  I know her father, Christian Espiritu, as one of the country’s prominent fashion designers.  I remember my grandmother talking highly about him.

It is amazing how artists are just artistic in everything they do…he designed his own home which I thought was really beautiful.

A West Hollywood Condo

By | Homes and Interiors | No Comments

This is the condo of a future ” Steven Spielberg.”  She does not want to be known so this is anonymous, but one day you will know who she is when she comes out with her movies and then  I can say that I was once in her home 🙂

LA Homes

By | Homes and Interiors, Travel | 2 Comments

Over the weekend and taking a break from work, Tito Joey brought us to Los Angeles City! He drove us around and showed us the city.  Everywhere in Southern California is quite far from each other that you really need a car to get around especially in the heat… though it is not humid.  We went through the different residential areas and wow, we were amazed at all the huge and beautiful homes!!  And they are one after the other.  They all have beautiful landscaping and some even have sculptures in their front lawn…and not to mention the beautiful and expensive cars parked  in these houses! WOW!!

I was able to take some photos from a moving car…I wish i could have taken more…

Muñoz-Yupangco Wedding Reception Venue – Guillerma Farms Part 4

By | Bridal, Homes and Interiors | No Comments

In December 2004, Paolo had invited us over to stay at his place in

Balayan.  We will never forget the kind hospitality Paolo and Tito

Raffy and Tita Juvy showed us.  We loved spending time at their beautiful

home and they took good care of us and fed us very well 🙂 We will always

have fond memories of our stay in Balayan

batangas-017.jpgbatangas-016.jpgbatangas-053.jpg

Almost five years after, we are invited again and we come back to Balayan to witness one of the

most important event in Paolo’s life.  It is a beautiful home and I am sure it is one filled with many family

memories. Thank you for sharing  your home with us

Moroccan Treasures

By | Finds, Homes and Interiors | One Comment

My Tita sells many beautiful things from Morocco….Maybe some of you have seen her in some bazaars and in the American Women’s bazaar at the World Trade Center.  These photos were taken long time ago but thought they were timeless to share.  She has some new arrivals now….
